About this activity
What makes this class special is the chef's live performances: a sea bream filleting demonstration performed right in front of you, and a wagyu beef nigiri show where the beef is seared tableside with a torch. You'll also make the restaurant founder's original California roll recipe, something you won't find anywhere else. The venue features a live fish tank, so you can see the fish before it becomes your sushi — a genuine, hands-on experience led by a skilled itamae in the heart of Kabukicho.
What you will do
Experience authentic sushi-making at "Sushi Kanpai," located in the vibrant Kabukicho district, one of Tokyo's most popular destinations for visitors from around the world. Led by a skilled itamae (Japanese chef) at a traditional Japanese restaurant featuring a live fish tank, this hands-on class offers a genuine sushi experience. The program includes making California rolls — an original recipe created by the restaurant's founder — a sea bream filleting demonstration performed live by the chef, and a wagyu beef nigiri performance where the beef is seared tableside with a torch. An unforgettable experience to enjoy together!
