Private Vegan and Vegetarian-Friendly Sushi Class in a Local Tokyo Home

It takes chefs 10 years or more to master the craft of sushi-making. Still, if you only have a few hours to spare, you can start your sushi-making journey by learning the basics of the craft in this hands-on sushi-making class in Ikebukuro. After your sushi-making efforts, you’ll enjoy a delicious sushi meal with a steaming bowl of miso soup. Your host is a certified interpreter guide who has been teaching sushi-making classes for over 12 years and enjoys sharing her love for sushi with easy-to-follow classes that are both educational and entertaining. At her home in Ikebukuro, you’ll learn how to make sushi and enjoy your fresh sushi meal with a wonderful view of Tokyo. The experience begins with meeting your host at Higashi-Ikebukuro Station before heading to her home, where you'll prepare fresh ingredients together. You'll learn how to make sushi rice, cut tuna, grate wasabi, and create three types of sushi: nigiri, maki rolls, and gunkan, then snap some fun photos with your delicious creations. Afterward, sit down to enjoy your handmade sushi with miso soup made by your instructor, and take home printed recipes and a special souvenir. After the class, walk off your meal by exploring the lively district of Ikebukuro, one of Tokyo’s main pop culture hubs. Explore its vibrant and colorful streets, where you’ll find anything from anime merchandise and specialty cafes to countless shops and restaurants.
