Washoku: Authentic Japanese Cooking Class (Fushimi, Kyoto)
Classes
It was a very history-filled experience. They taught us a bit of the history of sushi specifically Nigiri Sushi. It enlightened us a lot about sushi in general too! The chef is very knowledgeable and skilled. Alongside the interpreter and another assistant, they taught us carefully and enthusiastically. I recommend this to sushi lovers!

Private Sushi Masterclass: Nigiri, Gunkan, & Maki (Kyoto)
Classes
We got very lucky and were the only 2 people who signed up for the day so we basically got a private sushi-making lesson. Hide (the teacher) was very kind, patient, easy to understand English and led a very calm experience class. The quality of the fish was amazing and Hide (pronunciation: He-day) explained what each fish was when it wasn't something classic like tuna or salmon. We loved learning how to make nigiri and teka-maki rolls, and we definitely think we could do it ourselves at home. We even went to an omakase sushi after this lesson and noticed the techniques of the sushi chef and what we learned in this lesson. Also, you don't have to worry about coming away with pictures. Hide will take photos for you throughout the experience and airdrop them before you leave so your cooking experience is sanitary. I think it's a fun, unique and tasty experience for Kyoto! Highly recommend!
