What to expect

A deep dive into the world of fine Japanese knives, a hands-on experience in Tokyo. Participants will learn how a Japanese knife is made, sharpen one, watch a cutting demonstration, and join a cooking class to make Sashimi Zuke-don or Sushi for lunch.

You will start with a detailed explanation of Japanese knife culture. Then, observe a demonstration of expert knife work and use a professional Japanese knife to cut your own Sashimi.

Next, you will create your own Zuke-don or Sushi using the very sashimi you sliced yourself, making the meal truly personal. Zuke-don is a rice bowl topped with marinated fish. Please note: Children aged 6-11 cannot use knives; parents or instructors will cut the fish for them.

For the Tuna Don Workshop, you will learn to sharpen a knife while the fish marinates. In the Sushi Workshop, the instructor demonstrates sharpening techniques while you eat; you are welcome to try it yourself after the meal.

At the end of the class, enjoy your handmade Tuna Don or Sushi with miso soup and our original sake.

**Due to time constraints, the sushi workshop option will not include knife sharpening.
