I had fun making many some kinds of sushi while learning about the history of Edomae sushi, which was very interesting. I didn’t only enjoy making sushi but also tasting them as well. Everything served was I’m good quality and special. ( not only fish but also rice, vinegar, seaweed etc..) I’ve eaten sushi at many places but it was the best sushi ever in my whole life. Hope to visit again!
The host is so kind and nice, and show us their special skills and teach us how to make good Sushi with knowledge of Japanese history. Highly recommend!
There was lots that I didn’t know; I learned about the joy of sushi, and I was reminded of how beautiful culture is. I enjoyed this experience with my colleagues, and it was interesting to see how everyone’s finished sushi plate was attractive but different!
