点评:The first Takashimaya store was opened in Kyoto in 1831 as a sole proprietorship owned by Shinshichi Iida, a merchant from present-day Fukui Prefecture.
The original store in Kyoto was only 3.6 square meters in area and specialized in selling gofuku (formal kimono). A second Kyoto store opened in 1893, followed by a Tokyo store in 1897 and an Osaka store in 1898. Takashimaya was incorporated as a gomei kaisha (unlimited liability company) in 1909 and converted to a kabushiki kaisha (stock company) in 1919.
In 1958, Takashimaya opened a store in New York City which eventually occupied 37,000 square feet of floor space at 693 Fifth Avenue. The New York store closed in 2010 as Takashimaya chose to refocus on East and Southeast Asian markets amid struggling sales.
The Tokyo store is great but the store in Osaka is absolute fantastic. All department stores have on B levels the most sublime food halls and areas to eat and dine.
Takashimaya in Osaka has in my humble opinion the best food hall and staff, loved it.
翻译:第一家高岛屋于1831年在京都开业,当时的经营者是来自今福井县的商人饭田真七。
京都最初的店铺面积仅为3.6平方米,专营五服(正式和服)。第二家京都店铺于1893年开业,随后东京和大阪的店铺分别于1897年和1898年开业。高岛屋于1909年注册成立为合资公司(无限责任公司),并于1919年改制为股份公司(股份公司)。
1958年,高岛屋在纽约开设了一家店铺,最终在第五大道693号占地37,000平方英尺。由于销售额低迷,高岛屋选择将重心转向东亚和东南亚市场,纽约店铺于2010年关闭。
东京店很棒,但大阪店更是精彩绝伦。所有百货商场的B层都有最精致的美食大厅和餐饮区。
在我看来,大阪高岛屋的美食大厅和员工都是最好的,我非常喜欢。
