Experience Details

Sushi makes a great snack food at parties and events, as it’s a simple yet delicious finger food that’s easily shared. Roll up your sleeves, grab your friends, and learn how to make individual pieces of nigiri sushi in this fun Nigiri Sushi Making Class in Tokyo! You’ll learn how to perfectly mix vinegar into the rice, and then become a pro at shaping it into perfect nigiri form. Use an ingredient of your choice to top it off, using the freshest seafood or perhaps an alternative protein for your handmade nigiri sushi!


It’s a common misconception that sushi can only be made using raw fish, but in fact, vegetables, tofu, and meat products are commonly used, making for delicious variations. Although, some fresh seafood on top of a perfectly-shaped piece of rice (that’s slightly warmed by the hand) is undeniably delicious any time of day. Sit down to your own hand-pressed sushi feast with tea or sake, and take home some excellent sushi making skills as a souvenir. This Nigiri Sushi Making Class in Tokyo is fun for everyone and great for groups!

Experience Location

Home to the famous Sensoji Temple, a Buddhist temple built in the 7th century, Asakusa overflows with rich history and traditional culture. In the past, Asakusa was Tokyo’s leading entertainment district, a red light district with a number of kabuki theaters. Most of Asakusa was destroyed during World War II, but it has since grown into one of Tokyo's most visited tourist spots. Here, you'll find Nakamise Dori, a bustling shopping street lined with local snack and souvenir shops. Asakusa also has other attractions such as parks, public baths, and museums.
