You’ll interact directly with a professional sushi chef while being guided in English through the evolution of sushi.
The experience features a 14-piece tasting of fine sushi, including a comparison of various cuts of tuna.
As you eat, you’ll explore:
– Techniques such as simmering, searing, marinating, and wrapping
– How rice preparation changes flavor
– A tasting comparison between standard and premium ingredients
– Tools used by sushi chefs
– The taste and aroma of real wasabi
You’ll also step behind the counter, experience the chef’s workspace, and take commemorative photos.
Perfectly suited for everyone, from families with kids to solo travelers.
