This was such a fantastic evening! The staff were all super lovely and easy to chat to, and the facts we learned about rice were interesting and in some cases, blew us away a bit! The onigiri were fun to make, and the tasting presentation for the amazake and wagashi was just beautiful. Who knew there could be so much variation in flavour and texture! Browsing the wares afterwards it was difficult not to buy one of everything. We had such a lovely time, we hope to visit again on our next trip to Japan. 5/5 easily.
