音楽旨い処

Shibuya Life

渋谷区に越してから、いろんなことが変化しました。
渋谷といえば世界的にも有名な町…
それだけに何よりも私のなかでは、ここの地における物価の(とくに青果!)
異常なまでの高さは日経平均も驚くぐらいのエンゲル係数ぶりなわけです。
たしかに住むには高級なエリアかもしれないが住んでる人すべてが
高級生活をおくれるわけではないだろーがって思いながら
日々この近所に住む方たちと「あそこは安い」だの「あそこは旨い」だのの
情報をマメに交換しながら買い物に励む日々を送って…って
そんな中、最近かなり重大な発見をした。それは渋谷東急にある
紀伊国屋スーパー。紀伊国屋は普通のスーパーの倍値ぐらいで
食品が売られているけど、開店直後の朝11時は見切り品のコーナーが
大充実。しかも紀伊国屋だけにヘタなものは置いていないので見切り品と
いっても冷蔵やチルドで一週間は持つものばかりが並んでます。
普通のスーパーで今日は特売みたいにして売られている野菜などよりも
鮮度が高かったりするので渋谷区にお住まいで家計のやりくりに
頭を悩ませている皆さん、ぜひご活用くださいネ。

Since I moved into Shibuya-ward which is considered as one of
the most bustling area of Tokyo, things has changed a lot.
Especially price!
Yes everyone knows that this is one of the high end area but
not all the people who live here has high end life, and unfortunately
nobody seems to care about it.
Everything is so expensive and shops are limited, for example
if I want to buy grocery I go to grocery store but if I want to buy a
pasta I will go to a super market or a discount store. Well,
I can buy both at once in a super market but that will not be
cost effective.
I go to discount liquour store to buy some wine, then I have to go to
a department store food area to get a cheese, and of course to a
bakery to get a baguette. It's very convinient to live in the middle of
the city where you can get whatever you want but is that true!?!?!
Wondering about this riduculous circuit of my daily shopping
I found some interesting alternative recently.
It is the KINOKUNIYA store located underground of
Tokyu Department in Shibuya, yes, this one of the most stupidly
expensive supermarket but just some tricks. If you go to this store 11am
when they just opened, they have a shelf full of grocery, bread, fruit, and readymade - throw me in the oven - food selling in a discount price because
these are considered to be expired soon. Ok, that's a common
selling style in here however such branded supermarket will not put
"I am so ready to be trashed" food on this shelf because they only
have quality food and they have reputation and face to save still.
Foods on this shelf is still enough to be stocked in your fridge
for about few more days, even more, it is rather fresh than the
special price food selling at much more down to earth supermarket.
So remember whenever you feel Tokyo is just all about buying expensive food,
uh-uh, don't forget to check out these kind of shops and you'll see how normal
life in here can get by.
