The Food Sample workshop was so good

Reviewed by: Julie

We Food Sample workshop was amazing. My kids loved it so much. The instructor was so nice and funny. He gave the instructions in English, so communication is not a problem. My kids made Ramen and Fried Rice. They both wanted to do it again. Highly recommended!

食品サンプル体験　寿司・ラーメン・カレー・ピザなど 食事系のサンプルを制作！種類豊富な選べるプラン♪短時間30分から体験可能＜池袋／北池袋駅徒歩5分＞

A very valuable experience. とても貴重な経験

Reviewed by: pon

I visited with a foreign friend who was in Japan for travel. I made the simplest food sample of sushi since I would be interpreting myself, but the assistant provided a thorough explanation, and my friend was very pleased. I would like to use this service again in a similar situation.

旅行で日本に来ていた外国人の友達を連れての訪問でした。
自分で通訳をするので一番簡単そうな寿司のフードサンプルを作りましたが、アシスタントの方がしっかり説明して下さりとても喜んでもらえました。
また同じような場面で利用したいと思います。

Interesting class, nice tutor.

Reviewed by: Maggie Leung

The tutor is so nice and his English is easy to understand. We feel a little bit strange when we are on the way because it is located in residential area. However, the image changed when we get into the classroom.

The tools are well prepared, instructions are clear, the tutor is very nice. And the most important thing is we like our product so much!

Just one concerning point for foreigners that we need to buy some boxes to store our product well. Or else, we are not able to bring them to our home safely since we need to take flight.

The total experience is amazing. I will recommend it to my friends. I'd also like to try other food sample classes from this tutor when I travel to Tokyo later.

Fun Plastic Craft in Tokyo

Reviewed by: Stevie

This workshop was easy to find, using google maps. It is a small, family-run business. We were welcomed warmly and given excellent instructions on how to put together our sample foods. My husband created sushi, my daughter (8) and I made sundaes.

We all had a great time, love our unique souvenirs, and would recommend this experience to others. It takes about a day to dry/set, but is well packaged for flying home.

The sample industry is 90+ years old, so taking part in this is trying a piece of Japanese culture.

Go! Have Fun!

It was very nice! Lovely, kind people looking after us and showing the children patiently what to do. We made ice cream, Sushi candles and Ramen. These can also be made by younger children - we think. It s a fun experience for the entire family. Our children found it one of the best things of all in Tokyo :)

Fun family experience

Reviewed by: David

The owner and staff were extremely nice and helpful during our time creating fake desserts. We got to make our own designs and the instructor explained the whole process and helped guide my kids in creating their own Ice cream sundaes. The owner also showed us different foods and types of samples and their history. Going from wax to now PVC and plastics. We enjoyed their hospitality and the experience overall was awesome. Kids couldn’t wait until there samples were dry which took only 24 hours. They packaged it up in protective boxes for us for the train ride back to our hotel. Definitely recommend!

Fun Sumie Ink Painting Lesson in Tokyo with English Speaking Instructor

A super fun introduction to Sumie Ink painting!

Reviewed by: Jack Devereaux

The whole class was a blast! We learned about the origins of the painting, different techniques, and other aspects of Japanese culture.

The instructor, Yuta, was a very knowledgable, funny man, and a fantastic teacher! Eager to share said knowledge, and make the class as fun as possible.

The class itself, was super chill, and relaxing, as sumie should be. The gallery is full of Yuta's father's paintings, and helps create a calm, and beautiful environment to paint in!

If you're in Tokyo, then defiantly give this class a try! It' so much fun. The gallery is in a great area too, perfect for book lovers.

The crew at the workshop were super enthusiastic. We had a blast and actually stayed for the next session -- ramen -- based on my 10-year old's pleas to do more. Definitely going back next time we are in Tokyo. Lot of fun and went home with great souvenirs and memories.

Excellent for day-trips or as a short activity!

Reviewed by: Kiko

I made two separate reservations, as my group was split between wanting to make different things. The instructor was friendly and could give instructions in English. He was very encouraging and made our experience stress-free.

The location was much smaller than I expected, about the size of a studio apartment. There are "blanks" you can use to help you plan the layout of your sample. There's some room for error, so it's ok if you don't get everything how you want it the first time.

It took about 45 min for us to finish our samples. Bigger samples, like ramen and tempura looked like they'd take closer to 90 mins. This activity would be perfect between major plans, like killing time in the afternoon before dinner plans, or as a detour from Ikebukuro.

Advice: tie back long hair and wear short sleeves.

My 11yo son made the curry...and it looked so real! The steps were easy enough for him to do on his own. The couple doing the lessons were so nice and patient. We don't speak Japanese, so he tried his best to explain what he could in English. He also used a Pocket Talk to translate. We wish we could have gone back another day to do it again!

I found the class educational and cultural.

Reviewed by: Heather Hunt

The Studio location was easy to find using details provided.
From the moment I arrived I was welcome, the class and lesson was prepared.

The teacher was knowledgeable in the history of Sumi’e; his English was excellent and he engaged my interest, the process was explained well and he gauged well my ability.

I left the lesson pleased with what I had learnt and excited to continue learning more and experimenting with Sumie.

I would definitely recommend this class as a must do cultural experience:

Value for money, honestly I would happily have paid more, the ability and experience of the teacher was excellent.

Worth the trek!

Reviewed by: Wandering American

The sample workshop is tucked away in a residential neighborhood, but it was easy enough to find. We were a little worried whether the trip would be worth it as we made our way to the studio, but our fears were laid to rest when we were greeted enthusiastically by the owner who really made the experience priceless. My kids loved learning about how the samples are made and making their own. We had a blast!

Most of the items are pre made and you simply need to put them together with some simple instructions. Good for family activity. Samples turn out realistic! The best part are the instructors, extremely friendly and accommodating. Tried their best to communicate in simple English and was sooooo polite. Thumbs up for them!

Reviewed by: Mia Anindita

I really enjoyed the activity. The teacher is really nice, very patient when explaining something. However I expect to learn from the very basic step, knowing that we tend to just stick one thing and another made me a little bit disappointed. Regardless, it was indeed a good learning experience for me. Thank you!

My favourite experience of the holiday!

Reviewed by: Fancypantsrodgers

I loved everything about this experience. The shop/factory is situated in a lovely little area of Tokyo (near Kita-Ikebukuro station) - easy to get to, and very welcoming on arrival. Our teacher did not speak much English, but was so helpful and demonstrated everything we needed to do. He also borrowed a translator from his colleague to ask us about our holiday plans and to recommend activities.

Myself and my friend came away with our beautiful miniature sundaes, and also some other purchases from the shop for friends and family. Absolutely delightful! Do make this a part of your trip to Japan.

Yamato Sample was one of the highlights of our trip. The staff was very accommodating, and could speak English better than I can speak Japanese. They explained the processes behind creating each type of sample. It really gives you an appreciation for their craft since they take so much care in doing it.

One of the best things we did in Japan

Reviewed by: Faerirose

I vacationed with a group of 5 people and for the plastic food experience we made a total of 4 different items: full size parfait, mini sundae, ramen, and fruit tart. We had a blast.
The staff explained well in English and helped and guided when we had problems (not big problems and they were problems of our own making as non-professionals - they fixed an overworked piece of wax and guided a better parfait swirl).
The atmosphere there was really fun and energetic. There are 4 tables in workshop 3 so other people are making stuff at the same time. Our food turned out wonderfully. We would absolutely do the plastic food activity again.
