We were pleased and surprised to have a private class with Shota! As sushi making rookies, he patiently took us through each step and at the end we enjoyed some of the best sushi we have ever eaten. Highly recommended.

We were visiting at dinner at 12:15 and Mami was there to welcome us... she was so sweet and patient with us... one of the best experiences we have had in Japan! She taught us about history and how to make it to the bottom! If you want a good experience, go there!
