Our experience in Kagurazaka was simply magical! A perfect blend of incredible food, culture, and tradition. We began at a traditional yakiniku restaurant, where we explored a variety of different beef cuts. One of the greatest advantages of this experience was being guided through the menu, allowing us to try options we probably wouldn’t have chosen on our own. Each cut had its own unique texture and flavor, but what impressed us the most and something we had never tried before were the shoulder cut and beef tongue. Both were unbelievably tender, rich, and surprisingly delicate in flavor. It completely changed our perception of yakiniku and made the meal feel adventurous and special. After that delicious start, we moved on to a traditional Japanese handcraft experience. This part of the tour felt intimate, artistic, and deeply meaningful. Working with our hands, learning careful techniques, and understanding the cultural significance behind the craft made the experience incredibly immersive. It was peaceful, creative, and truly memorable, the kind of activity that stays with you long after it ends. To close the day, we participated in a traditional matcha experience. We didn’t just drink matcha, we prepared it ourselves with guidance, learning how to whisk it properly and appreciate the ritual behind it. The atmosphere was calm and elegant, making it the perfect ending. Our guide Junko and our host Chihiro-san accompanied us throughout the entire experience with warmth, patience, and genuine care. Every detail felt thoughtfully planned, and we felt completely immersed in Japanese culture from start to finish. We absolutely loved it.

Meeting a Japanese restaurant where you prepare and roast your own meat was simply sensational. It’s something completely different from what we’re used to — in addition to being super interactive, it makes the meal a lot more special. The meats were extremely tasty, soft and of very high quality. Being able to choose the point, feel the aroma on the grille and participate in the whole process left everything even more delicious and fun. It was a unique and memorable gastronomic experience. And as if not enough, the part of Japanese crafts was equally charming. Making something with your own hands, with all the delicacy and attention to the details that are part of Japanese culture, was very special. There is a different sensitivity and care in each step, something that really touches us. The guides were super careful, caring and patient, helping in every detail and leaving everything even lighter and pleasant. It was a perfect day, full of learning, culture, incredible flavors and moments that I will keep with great affection.
