Highlights
  • 221 Hokkejichō - Embark on a sushi-making journey with us, and you’ll be equipped to craft your own sushi once you’re back home. Upon completing the course, we’ll award you with a certificate to acknowledge your newfound sushi mastery. Don’t worry if you’re a beginner; we’ve got all the pre-sliced ingredients ready for you. And for those eager to learn about slicing fish, just let us know—we’re here to cater to your learning desires. The first step in your sushi creation is mastering ‘shari’ or ‘sumeshi’ (seasoned rice). You’ll be taught to combine our specially concocted sushi vinegar with steaming hot rice. Remember, there’s a knack to mixing it just right.
