Amazing Experience with Japanese Knives! This was an unforgettable experience that taught me so much about the art of Japanese knives. I learned: The secrets behind why Japanese knives are so sharp and special. Proper cutting techniques to elevate my skills in the kitchen. How to use the right knife for each task. Tips and tricks for sharpening knives effectively. The highlight was cutting fresh tuna and making a delicious tuna bowl—it was a true culinary delight! If you’re passionate about cooking or want to learn more about Japanese knives, this experience is a must-try. Highly recommend!

Japanese Home Cooking Class in Tokyo (Onigiri & Tamagoyaki)
Cooking Classes
This was a fun and interactive presentation of two of Japan's favorite comfort foods, onigiri and tamagoyaki. Admittedly, I'm not the greatest cook, but with their expert guides I was able to make easy and delicious snacks. I'm confident that with the recipe sheet provided and the right ingredients I could make these at home in the U.S. Participants were encouraged to do all the preparation themselves and with an expert translation we were able to copy the Japanese chef's instructions easily. It was a really nice experience. I would highly recommend.
