Tokyo: Tsukiji Fish Market Sushi Making – Beautiful Sushi Bento
Description
Create your own beautiful—and surprisingly delicious—sushi bento in just one hour in the heart of Tsukiji Market. Make 10 pieces of sushi with fresh, high-quality ingredients from trusted Tsukiji specialty shops, then arrange each piece in a handcrafted wooden bento box made especially for this experience. Many first-time guests are surprised by how delicious their handmade sushi tastes—the quality starts with the ingredients. Along the way, use authentic Japanese sushi tools, try a professional Japanese knife when making your tuna roll, and enjoy a surprise encounter with real fresh wasabi. The family behind this experience has more than 100 years of connections with people in Tsukiji Market, making it possible to share ingredients, tools and craftsmanship valued by food professionals. Beginner- and family-friendly, with simple English guidance and complimentary photos taken by our staff.
