What's Included
Meeting and pickup
Gakugei-daigaku Station (Tokyu Toyoko Line) has one ticket gate. I will meet you outside the gate with a sign that says “Sukiyaki Experience – Demi.” From Shibuya, take a Local or Express train (Limited Express does not stop). The ride is about 6 minutes. We will walk to my home (about 15 minutes).
What to expect
Experience A5 Iga Wagyu, the "Phantom Wagyu" from the home of the Ninja. So rare that 80% is enjoyed locally in Mie, gourmets often prefer it over Matsusaka Beef for its lighter, elegant sweetness and melt-in-your-mouth texture. We serve a generous portion for a rare experience you won't find in typical tourist spots.
Professional Flavor & Traditional Craft Your host, Demi, was raised in a restaurant family and trained by a Hilton "Dynasty" chef. Enjoy professional-quality Sukiyaki with premium Koshihikari rice, slow-cooked in a traditional "Donabe" (clay pot) for a sweetness electric cookers can’t match. We also serve seasonal dessert and tea to perfectly round off your meal.
Local Life & Private Hospitality Explore Gakugei-Daigaku, a "cool" neighborhood away from tourist crowds. Relax in a real home, learn the philosophy of “Itadakimasu,” and enjoy full bilingual support. BYO is welcome with no corkage fee! Feel free to bring your favorite sake or beer to pair with the A5 beef. We welcome families, couples, and solo travelers to our table for a memorable taste of Japan. We look forward to meeting you and sharing our stories!
