Was really looking forward to the wax making but this was rather simple. Would have loved for a harder course for adults too.

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

A wonderful day

Reviewed by: Vanessa

The staff there is very nice, friendly, patient and helpful. The workshop is also very interesting with detailed explanations. They always try to let you participate in as many steps as possible. Also, they pack your lovely food samples with good care. I am particularly impressed by how firendly and helpful our workshop tutor is - he tells us how to get to the nearest station in the most convenient and cheapest way with a printed map, and immediately looks for and recommends me a great udon shop when we tell him we would like to have udon as our lunch. He also speaks slowly to pander to my standard of Japanese. We really enjoy chatting with him much :)! It is definitely one of the most remarkable and marvelous memories throughout our journey. They are undoubtedly the loveliest people I have ever met in Tokyo. Thank you so much for giving us such a wonderful day in Tokyo.

Fun Sumie Ink Painting Lesson in Tokyo with English Speaking Instructor

Fun, Practical and Relaxing Introduction to Sumie

Reviewed by: Aaron Eames

The location is close to the station, maybe three minutes from the nearest exit, and the shop itself is easy to find being on the main road. The session itself takes place in the shop/atelier, the walls lined with sumie works on general sale. In the lesson I learnt a little about sumie history, techniques and styles. The instructor speaks English well and is friendly and patient. I painted five small pieces following his example which featured bamboo, Mt. Fuji and cherry blossoms and was able to take my attempts home. He gave me good advice and directions to a washi (Japanese paper) store after the session. I recommend the experience to anyone interested in sumie and wanting to give it a try!

Informative and Fun

Reviewed by: Jamie

This was a great experience for us. The owner taught us so much about the history of fake food making, which was really interesting. Making the parfait was also easy with the instructions and quite a lot of fun. Finding this place was a bit of trouble, since Google Maps took us to the wrong location, so if following GPS, be careful of where it leads you. The English was not too bad at this place, so it is okay if you don't understand Japanese and the booking is in English too. Strongly recommended as price was good value.

Edo Kiriko Glass Cutting Experience in Asakusa

Do this when in Tokyo!

Reviewed by: Meg

This was again a very tricky place to find, but in a tiny studio there were 6 stations to work at and 6 students. We were given samples to look at and choose from. It was very tricky, but very doable if you choose something simple. Downstairs was a gallery of glass work that was incredible. Very awesome and well run class. Our instructor spoke English!

It was so very fun! We loved it so much that we went down the street to another studio and signed up on the spot to take a class on how to make an ice cream parfait!

Great fun for the whole family...beautiful self-made souvenirs

Reviewed by: B Lau

It was a wonderful experience for our family! The booking process on Veltra was straight forward and most importantly, in English. We decided to make mini ice cream sundaes as they were small and easy to bring home. We received the confirmation email on the very same day. On the actual day, the train line that we needed to take was down due to passenger injury. Thus we needed to change 5 different JR and metro lines to get to the place, instead of the original 2. We called Yamato sample workshop to inform them and they were very kind to wait for us. When we finally made our way there, we were pleasantly surprised that the instructor could speak English quite well. We could customised our sundaes by picking the colour and "fruits"we wanted. The instructor guided us step-by-step, and we found it really easy to follow his instructions. We were so proud of our own creation! If we were to visit Tokyo again, we would like to try own hands at making either a bowl of ramen or tempura prawns with lettuce. :)

This is an experience of making food samples out of wax, which I have seen several times on TV. It was in a room that felt like a house, but since it was a plan for only one group, it was very easy to do. There were many photos of celebrities experiencing it displayed on the walls.

What a wonderful experience! I really enjoyed my afternoon with Yoshiichiro and Yoshiko Kuge, who patiently taught me the basics of Kintsugi over coffee and cake. Even with my limited knowledge in Japanese, the Kuges spoke enough English to clearly explain each step to me. During the lesson, we chatted about other Torontonians who have crossed paths with the Kuges, which was pretty funny. Overall, a really lovely workshop and highly recommended for those looking to do something special and unique!

We participated in the ramen making activity. It was a fun experience and a highlight of our vacation to Tokyo. It was very easy to find the studio, located only minutes away from the subway station. We felt welcomed as soon as we entered the workshop. The instructor, who spoke English, was extremely polite, patient, and friendly. The project was very safe and easy. The final product looked delicious and good enough to eat! They also have some ready made samples of some other foods that one can purchase as well. Overall, this is a delightful activity that we highly recommend to those who want to try something different, especially something that is not typically offered in the United States.

Reviewed by: まりこ

My first experience with Edo Kiriko was quite nerve-wracking, but while receiving a lecture, I was able to practice with samples at the beginning, so in the end, I was able to create a satisfying piece!

It took about 90 minutes to complete, and I think even those who are not very skilled can enjoy it. It was a fascinating time that made me want to try creating this pattern... I feel like I could really get into it. This experience sparked my interest in Japanese culture, and I'm really glad I participated.

初めての江戸切子、たいへん緊張しましたが、レクチャーを受けつつ、最初はサンプルで練習もできるので、最終的には満足いく作品が出来上がります！

時間も90分ほどで出来上がり、不器用な方でも十分楽しめると思います。この模様を作ってみたい・・・と思うほど、のめりこみそうな不思議な時間でした。これをきっかけに日本文化に興味持てそうで、参加してとても良かったです。

The whole process was very fun and it was amazing to see the other fake food items that the store makes too!

The only downside is finding this place, it is in a small and quiet neighbourhood in Tokyo. However it was also fun exploring the area once you're there.

Highly recommended, not only for families with young kids but adults as well!

日本画体験　京都旅行の思い出に絵はがきをつくろう＜日本画体験処 絵まき＞

Even if I'm not good at drawing since middle school, it's still fun. 絵を描くのが中学校以来でも下手でも、やはり楽しい。

Reviewed by: ロッコ

First of all, I appreciated the polite guidance I received via email the day before; it was very helpful. Not only did it specify which bus to take from the station, but it also explained what to do after getting off at the bus stop. I had already checked it on Google Maps beforehand, but the instructions were very clear and easy to follow.

At the beginning, I chose a postcard with a sketch on it and painted over it. Besides the Wind God and Thunder God, there were also animals and flowers available, but my friend and I decided to go with the Wind God and Thunder God. There are coloring models available, but you can choose your own colors, and you also receive advice, so even though I wasn't very confident in my skills, I think I managed to create something decent.

Before starting, I thought it would be quick since the size was postcard-sized, but waiting for the paint to dry and thinking about what colors to use turned out to be surprisingly enjoyable. During the session, they also served us tea. Before I knew it, two hours had passed. At the end, they framed the painting for us, and that was the conclusion of the experience.

While I primarily visit Kyoto for sightseeing, as I get older, a full day of sightseeing has become tiring, so it seems that incorporating experiences like this one, followed by visiting two or three places, will become my new pattern. It was a good stimulation for my aging brain as well.

まず、前日にメールで丁寧なご案内をいただき、助かりました。駅からどのバスに乗るというだけでなく、バス停を降りたらどうすればよいかも書いていただき、もちろんグーグルマップでは事前に調べてあったが、でもとてもわかりやすくてよかったです。初めに下絵が書いてあるハガキを選び、その上に絵の具を塗ります。下絵は、風神雷神以外にも動物や花もありましたが、友人と私でやはり風神雷神の部分を選びました。もちろん着色のモデルはありますが、独自で選べますし、またアドバイスもいただけるので、下手さに自信はあっても、それなりに仕上がったと思います。始める前はハガキ大の大きさなので、すぐに終わるかと思いましたが、やはり絵の具が乾くのを待って、またどんな色にするか考えるのは意外に楽しかったです。途中で、紅茶も出していただきました。気が付くと、２時間が過ぎていました。終わりにはその絵を額に入れていただき、終了でした。京都にはもちろん観光がメインで行きますが、歳とともに、一日観光はしんどくなってきましたので、このような体験を一つ入れ、その後２～３か所廻るというパターンがこれからのパターンになりそうです。歳とった脳にもいい刺激にもなりました。
