Through this activity, I hope to convey my expertise and passion for Japanese cuisine, especially sushi, to a wider audience and invite many to join me in this adventure in the world of sushi and discover the exquisite taste of Japanese cuisine. Our journey begins not only with cooking, but also with a VR experience. Using the latest VR technology, you can experience the immersive sensation of actually being in the fishing grounds of the Pacific Ocean. The vast ocean spreads out before your eyes, and if you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of the waves, and sometimes the sound of the fishing boat motors echo. It is difficult to actually go fishing, but through VR, anyone can easily experience the immersive sensation of fishing. Freshly caught seafood is an ingredient that further enhances the delicate flavor of Japanese cuisine. You will see some of them through the VR experience. I would like to share my insights on selecting the freshest ingredients, a skill honed through daily practice. Once the ingredients are gathered, we will move to the sushi counter and embark on a cooking session. Under the guidance of a guide, you will learn traditional and innovative Japanese sushi techniques, from precisely handling a Japanese knife to preparing the wasabi, a symbol of sushi culture, and how to hold the rice. In addition to sushi, you can also sample authentic dishes such as delicious rolled omelet. Embark on a Japanese sushi adventure with an immersive sushi making experience. Choose from around six types of premium sushi, selected from the stock available on the day, and begin your journey as a sushi master. Immerse yourself in Japanese flavors and sushi culture like never before! At the end of the cooking experience, participants will receive a recipe, which will allow them to host their own Japanese cooking soirée upon returning home! We look forward to the joy of cooking with you all. Our kitchen studio is located in Nakameguro, just a short distance from Shibuya, and after your culinary adventure and hearty activities, you can explore Tokyo's famous landmarks, Shibuya, Harajuku, Omotesando, and Meiji Jingu, for sightseeing and shopping. Whether you're a beginner or an aspiring chef, our classes start with a basic lesson, including how to hold a knife correctly. Everyone is welcome! Let's go on a culinary adventure together and experience the joy of sushi culture!
