Sushi cooking class - Very hands on experience with Mihori today, very helpful and instructive, we were total beginners before this and have came away with lots more knowledge. We can’t wait to try and make this at home, very nice food also, thank you🙏🏼

Amazing, delicious, and fun - Really awesome experience. We cooked 5 dishes, sushi, eggplant, eggs, teriyaki sushi, crushed cucumber. We started off the tour in a supermarket getting fresh ingredients for the meal. Mini our guide was absolutely amazing, helping us understand the cousine and making all the dishes so much easier than we would on our own. Plus so much more fun to have a guide keep you company and share the meal with you. Highly recommend this toue/cooking class!

Sushi, Sake, and New Friends – A Perfect Afternoon with Mijori - Had an incredible time making an entire Japanese meal from scratch—from miso soup to our very own hand-rolled sushi! Mijori, our guide, was an absolute delight—warm, funny, and so knowledgeable. The vibes were top-notch with great music, a fun atmosphere, and new friendships formed over chopping boards and sushi mats. The sake pairing at the end was the perfect touch, complementing each dish beautifully. Highly recommend this experience…delicious, memorable, and so much fun!

Kid’s favorite experience! ❤️ - We had the most wonderful time cooking with Jasmine!! My 8 year-old told me this was the most fun he has had so far in Japan (we have done Disney, TeamLab Planets, Mt. Fuji, ninja etc) and he wanted to take another class as soon as we were done! Thank you so much, Jasmine. Our family will never forget this time.

A fun time! - Really pleasant experience with lots of food and plenty of sake. A nice intro to Japanese izakaya style home cooking and a nice way to get to know a local. Wishing for more explanation behind things instead of just going through motions.
