Overview

This is more than just a meal. It’s an immersive journey into authentic sushi culture.

This unique experience goes beyond simply enjoying delicious sushi — it’s a rare chance to understand the techniques, traditions, and philosophy of Edomae Sushi at a real sushi counter in Kanda, created by a locally loved sushi shop.

You’ll interact directly with a professional sushi chef while being guided in English through the evolution of sushi.

The experience features a 14-piece tasting of fine sushi, including a comparison of various cuts of tuna.
As you eat, you’ll explore:
– Techniques such as simmering, searing, marinating, and wrapping
– How rice preparation changes flavor
– A tasting comparison between standard and premium ingredients
– Tools used by sushi chefs
– The taste and aroma of real wasabi

You’ll also step behind the counter, experience the chef’s workspace, and take commemorative photos.

Perfectly suited for everyone, from families with kids to solo travelers.
