Experience Details

Sushi is one of Japan’s most iconic foods, but tasting it and making it are two very different experiences. In this homemade sushi-making class in Tokyo, you’ll step beyond the counter and learn what goes into creating authentic sushi, using simple techniques and fresh ingredients.


The class begins with a clear introduction to the basics of sushi. You will learn about different sushi styles, key ingredients, and preparation tips, then move on to making sushi from scratch. The lesson is taught in English, so everything is easy to follow, even if it’s your first time cooking Japanese food. All ingredients and tools are provided, letting you focus fully on learning and enjoying the process.


Once your sushi is ready, you can sit down and enjoy the meal you’ve made. Along the way, you will gain practical skills and insights you can take home, whether you want to recreate the dishes or simply understand sushi on a deeper level. It’s a relaxed, hands-on way to connect with Japanese food culture in Tokyo.
