Tremendous experience in Tokyo! Authentic opportunity to enjoy the famous fish market with a local chef. Chat with various vendors and learn about what chefs look for when making their purchases. Nobu shops while we learn and then takes you back to his tiny restaurant and prepares what he just bought - the freshest sushi you’ll ever eat!! Do not miss!!

Tsukiji Market Tour and Sushi-Making Class with Chef Saisho
Cooking Classes
The hosts were very welcoming and prepared all the ingredients firsthand, and while the chef explained the steps in Japanese, the assistant spoke good English and translated everything, making it easy to follow along with all the instructions. The explanations were clear and thorough, ensuring that even those with little cooking experience could feel confident in preparing the dish. I learned how to make the perfect omurice, from the flavorful fried rice to the smooth, delicate omelette. The highlight, of course, was the food at the end — it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot-on, and the whole process was both fun and educational. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to try their hand at Japanese cooking!
