The tour was such a fun and interesting experience! You can definitely tell the food was served with a lot of care in both presentation and taste by the owner, Mr. Hasegawa, and complemented by variety of drinks that suit the palette of the dish served by Ms. Yukari had a very interesting tasting experience. Aside from the amazing food, the ambience of a small and exclusive, but friendly atmosphere made it so comfortable for you to be able to enjoy the food. Also, the explanation of the ingredients, cooking method, and some fun-facts around the whole experience neatly explained by the hosts with the help from Ryo really opens you up to how fascinating and unique Japanese cuisines are. To anyone looking for a way to experience Japan through food, you should definitely try this out!

Unforgettable Private Dining Experience with Chef Hasegawa, Chef Hikari, and Host Ryo Dining in Japan often comes with high expectations, but this private dining experience exceeded them all. It was unforgettable, not just for the incredible dishes but also for the warm, accommodating atmosphere provided by the chefs and our host, Ryo. Despite initial nerves about the setting being too formal, the experience was welcoming and engaging. The chefs answered all our questions, and with Ryo’s flawless translations, we were able to fully enjoy the meal. They also easily accommodated my friend’s dietary restrictions as a Muslim, offering non-pork dishes and non-alcoholic drink pairings. In just two hours, we enjoyed a variety of dishes, including shiitake mushroom with grilled duck and assorted sashimi, each showcasing different textures and fresh seasonal ingredients. If you’re short on time but want to experience authentic Japanese cuisine, this private dining is perfect. However, if you’re very particular about food or not adventurous, it may not be the best fit. For those who enjoy trying new things, it’s highly recommended!

The tour took us to three authentic Japanese restaurants, where we got to try a variety of traditional dishes. Each stop gave us a deeper understanding of Japanese cuisine, and the food was absolutely delicious. What made the experience even better was our guide, Ryo, who was extremely accommodating and knowledgeable. He shared interesting insights about the food, culture, and cool hidden spots around Ginza. It was the perfect mix of learning, eating, and exploring! Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to dive into authentic Japanese cuisine
