Very kind teachers

Reviewed by: Eduardo

We went on a Sunday afternoon to do a Kintsugi class. This couple of teachers were available. The class is very instructive and we could work on the pottery we brought. This art of mending broken things is very ancient and it appealed to so this classes. We were very happy and it took us two hours to go through all the process ad glueing and patching. We were invited tea, cheesecake and a Japanese watermelon! We would be very pleased if we did more classes with them, but unfortunately, we have to leave in a few more days! Thanks, Yoshiko and Yoshiichiro

Easy even for children. 子供でも簡単

Reviewed by: キリママ

I participated because my child wanted to make something. It's not a large group, and the staff members accompany each group, so it's suitable for small children. It's simple, so adults seem to enjoy making things like lettuce or tempura more.

子供が作りたがっていたので参加しました。大人数ではなくてスタッフさんがグループごとについてくれるので小さいお子様でも可能。簡単なので大人はレタスとかテンプラの方が楽しそうです。

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

Enjoyable hands-on experience

Reviewed by: Peter Lam

Fun-filled two hours learning how to assemble a bowl of Japanese raman noodles food sample. The instructor Mr Saito is very friendly and helpful. We talked half in English and Japanese (my broken Japanese simply makes the class even more funnier.)

Really realistic food sample. All semi-finished parts and tools are well-prepared waiting for me when I arrived at the workshop.

Good for children to adults, in particular for those who would like to have some interactive hands-on experience.

Japanese Culture Experience Tour in Nihonbashi

Lovely Group Tour in Nihonbashi

Reviewed by: SongnDance

The Nihonbashi Information Center was wonderfully accommodating in helping me plan a tour for our group of 14. The email follow-up, confirmation and check-ins were excellent.

The information center itself was easily accessible from the JR Train line and we actually managed the trip there and back ourselves, without a guide. Once there, we were warmly greeted by several staff members who noted our allergies and communicated with our luncheon restaurant. The Culture Experience tour guide wore a mic which was appreciated, and, although not Japanese, also traditional garb, adding to the neatness of the experience. Her fluent English was a plus. We were happy to be assigned two guides, one of whom vigilantly watched the group stragglers to ensure we all got where we needed to be.

Tons of interesting information was shared, lunch was a delicious experience with authentic Japanese cuisine. Our only regret was that there was no English menu or explanation to tell us exactly what we were eating, as our guide(s) did not remain with us for lunch, and the restaurant spoke very little English. The tried very hard, however and were sometimes able to communicate the English words for items on our menu.

Following lunch, our group split in two to switch places doing an Origami class offered by the Center -- and shopping. Everyone loved this experience, which was well worth the investment.

Unique, fun experience

Reviewed by: Emily

The Instructors were such lovely folks--they really made the experience fun. Good activity for adults or children. The workshop is a bit out of the way, but located in a very pleasant residential neighborhood--nice for a stroll away from the busy Tokyo tourist sites. Very good price, since you'd easily pay more just to buy a "sampuru" much less make your own.

Fun for families and groups!

Reviewed by: VScott

We really enjoyed making plastic sample Ramen. Our instructor had a lot of knowledge about the process and was a lot of fun. All of the employees were nice.

The location was easy to find. We were greeted at the door and began work on our ramen. The process was easy and and gave a great result. All three of our bowls of ramen looked different and reflected our ramen artistry. :-)

A family with younger children came in later to make colorful parfaits, they also had a great time.

I would highly recommend this for families, groups, couples and singles. The sample food makes a great souvenir from Japan. Be sure to pick up a few extra pieces for friends at home.

Dad: Awesome! Friendly!

Boy: Much wow! Very nice! Can we do it again?

金継ぎ教室 一日体験 大切な器を美しく修理する伝統技術 ＜南阿佐ヶ谷＞by 手仕事屋久家

A delightful and artistically cultural experience!!

Reviewed by: Arielle & Christine

The Kuges were so genuinely warm and inviting! Regrettably we had been a bit lost and arrived a few minutes late to the class. They were very forgiving and welcomed us into their creative space with a light snack and coffee. The studio was small and charming, and had shelves full of sculptures and pottery of all sizes. They showed us a few of their pieces and explained what we were going to do that day. They spoke English fairly well and were able to explain the steps easily. The atmosphere was casual and we were able to take the time to enjoy their company. We didn't feel rushed at all. Our finished pieces were carefully packed in plastic containers which we'd like to add, made it back to the U.S. safely! We had a delightful afternoon with the Kuges and were so excited by our new skill that we stopped by a nearby Tokyu Hands right after class to buy supplies to do our own Kintsugi at home! Overall, it was an enjoyable cultural experience! We highly recommend Kintsugi and Kuge Crafts as a way to experience a bit of Japanese culture outside of the common tourist hotspots.

I participated with three friends who share my interests. The instructor was very friendly, and we had a great time experiencing the activity.

However, unfortunately, the wax sculpture was very delicate. It was perfectly shaped when it was finished, but now it has become covered in bits of tempura batter (laughs). I thought I was handling it carefully since I received proper explanations beforehand, but... (^^ゞ I would have appreciated having a coating agent or something similar.

気の合う仲間３人で参加しました。
とても気さくなインストラクターの方で、楽しく体験することができました。

ただ･･･残念な事に、ロウ細工はとても繊細で、出来上がった時は完璧な形だったのですが、今は、天かすだらけになってしまいました（笑）
事前にちゃんと説明していただいていたので、慎重に扱っていたつもりなのですが･･･(^^ゞ

Excellent and Interesting Workshop!

Reviewed by: Yuki

This is a really interesting workshop, and at the end of the day you get to take your creation home. We did the Ice Cream Sundae workshop.

The workshop leader does speak a bit of English, and they try their best to communicate with you to ensure you are on the right track. They are very patient and really doesn't push you to make a decision quickly when choosing specific ingredients (...we can't choose from so many cute things lol). We felt relaxed and thoroughly enjoyed the workshop.

The location itself is easy to find, and if you arrive a little early, you can always chill at the Lawson (convenient store) to grab a bite. Overall highly recommended :)

Amazing time at Kuge Krafts with the so kind and generous Kuge couple. Very intimate studio surrounded by pottery and perfect coffee and cake waiting for us upon arrival set the atmosphere. Excellent introduction to Kintsugi with the patient and encouraging advices from sensei which just make us wish we could come back for more or at least to try it again very soon at home! No doubt that I will brag about my amazing kintsugied sake glass at any occasion I get - yes you get to bring your piece of art back home.
Thank you, thank you and thank you,

PS: beware though that after that class you will want to voluntarily break any piece of ceramic you come across just for the excuse of having something to kintsugi...
