What to expect

Start your day in Asakusa with the ultimate Japanese breakfast!

Just steps from Senso-ji Temple, this workshop is led by a pro Sushi Chef. Raised by a cuisine master and apprenticed under a Tsukiji Sushi Master, I invite you to experience authentic tastes you won't find in convenience stores.

Discover "Samurai Soul Food" Did you know Onigiri was originally Samurai battlefield food? Before cooking, learn how this simple rice ball became the heart of the Japanese morning.

Master the "Air" Technique The secret is not squeezing, but shaping. Learn the Master’s technique: gently mold hot rice to keep air inside. This creates a professional, fluffy texture that melts in your mouth.

Itadakimasu! The Perfect Breakfast Wrap your creations in crisp Nori with savory fillings. Finally, say "Itadakimasu!" and enjoy handmade Onigiri with hot Miso soup.

Fuel up with a traditional meal before exploring Asakusa. More than a cooking class; it's a delicious dive into Japanese culture!
