Cultural Experiences

We had so much fun creating our little tart and parfait! They make adorable little souvenirs. The instructor was very patient, knowledgeable and friendly with a little help from Google translate. Would recommend it to an... moreyone looking for a fun little activity to do that is uniquely Japanese, especially if you love food!

I had a great time during the workshop. Yoshiichiro and Yoshiko are really nice and made me feel welcomed. Kintsugi is really interesting to learn.

Great and unique experience making sample food. Booking online was straight-forward and easy as well :) Do note that to purchase additional in-store merchandise (sample food made by the store eg keychains) require cash, ... morewhich we unfortunately did not bring. Otherwise, the course itself was engaging, straight-forward, and fun even for adults. Would definitely recommend!

Great workshop! Easy skill to learn...but difficult to master Very safe activity, you don't have to worry about cutting yourself or using heavy machinery.

Looking for something to do other than visiting temples, sightseeing, eating, or shopping? Show off your creative talent (you really dont need any!) by making your own sample food. This is a great family activity geared... more to all ages and skill levels and you learn a bit about the history of sample food. Keep in mind that you are not making samples from scratch. Rather some items such as the noodles and toppings are pre-made and you're basically molding them and placing the items to create your final product. Our group created different items - sushi candle, fried rice, Ramen and pizza clock - and everyone was thrilled with our creations! What a great souvenir to take home. Staff was very friendly, kind, supportive, and more importantly, patient in helping all of us. Try it out for yourself!

We had a wonderful experience at this workshop. You immediately feel at home and enjoy learning both the history of this art as well as the hands on application. The pace of the class and setting are really wonderful. I... more love that this we have been given the foundations for this practice and can utilize this in our lives. Highly recommend.
