This was hands down one of the absolute highlights of our time in Tokyo! If you want an authentic, hands-on culinary experience that is as fun as it is educational, book this class immediately. From the moment we walked in, Chef Kate set the tone with incredible energy, deep culinary knowledge, and endless patience. Rather than just handing us ingredients, she took the time to explain the craft behind every step—from perfecting the temperature and seasoning of the shari (sushi rice) to master the exact hand pressure needed for shaping nigiri. Her demonstrations were crystal clear, demystifying techniques that usually take years to master and making them accessible without ever dumbing them down. A massive shout-out goes to Coco, whose warmth and attentiveness made the entire session run seamlessly. Coco was always right there the second anyone needed an extra towel, a fresh prep bowl, or a quick tip on rolling technique. Beyond keeping the workspace immaculate, Coco made sure everyone felt supported and even captured fantastic candid photos of us in action so we didn't have to worry about sticky rice hands on our phones. The ingredients were extraordinarily fresh—melt-in-your-mouth tuna, beautiful salmon, and delicate tamagoyaki. Sitting down at the end to enjoy the feast we had made ourselves with a cup of hot green tea was deeply satisfying. Chef Kate and Coco make an unbeatable team, and their passion for Japanese culinary traditions is truly contagious. Don't leave Tokyo without taking this class!
