This experience was one of the highlights of our trip. The chef (Tanaka) and translator (Yugo) were super educational - we learned a lot. We got to make 5 different nigiris and 1 maki sushi. The staff helped make it memorable by giving us sushi chef hats with our Japanese names written on them, and there were several opportunities for photos/videos. And if you’re still hungry after eating your creations, Tsukiji Market was right outside!
Amazing Sushi Making Experience!

Absolutely authentic, well paced, with quality ingredients. Beginners welcome! There was a lovely English translator for the entire presentation who spoke fluently and ensured the Master Chef was understood correctly at every step. The Master Sushi Chef did a fish cutting demonstration, ensured we were all able to get selfies with the chef and kindly corrected us as we leaned our way around the technique. The sous chefs graciously took photos for our individual guests tables on our own phones, ensured we had extra rice, and promptly attended to table cleanliness while busy forming rice and fish into lunch! We even had an opportunity to sample authentic wasabi that was freshly grated from the wasabi root. This is an amazing experience, and if you're a fan of sushi or even curious about sushi, it is well worth your time.
