Discover a peaceful, private sushi studio in Ashiya, just 15–30 minutes from Osaka or Kobe.
This is a fully private sushi masterclass with a professional chef — not a group class.
Using fresh, seasonal ingredients, you’ll learn not only how to make sushi, but how a Japanese chef thinks and creates.
This is not entertainment.
It’s a personal visit into a chef’s world.
Begin your hands-on sushi journey by learning the foundation of all great sushi — perfectly seasoned rice, a technique rarely shown in restaurants.
In this fully private experience, you will learn directly from a master chef with over 40 years of experience, shaping your own nigiri using fresh, seasonal ingredients.
This is not just about making sushi.
It’s about understanding how a Japanese chef thinks, works, and creates.
After the lesson, enjoy the sushi you’ve made, along with handmade gari, while hearing stories from the chef’s journey and philosophy.
Location details will be provided after booking.
