Activity

Make authentic sushi with a master sushi chef at this long-established restaurant!

Take part in this sushi making experience at Matsuba Sushi—a sushi restaurant with over 80 years of history—under the tutelage of a sushi master! Learn authentic techniques, including how to prepare the rice and handle the toppings. Experience the joy of sushi making with all five senses while deepening your knowledge of Japanese culture and traditional flavors.

Savor fresh sushi and crispy fried tempura made by a sushi master

Enjoy this pairing of Fukui Koshihikari rice seasoned with vinegar brewed by a recipe passed down the generations and fresh, artisan-selected seafood, including South Indian bluefin tuna delivered directly from Toyosu. Every ingredient, including the soy sauce, salt, wasasbi, and seaweed are carefully selected to bring out the very best flavors with no compromises. The meal is served with crispy fried tempura, so you can savor all the flavors of Japan at once! *Ingredients may change depending on the season and availability. Photos are examples and not necessarily what is included in the menu.

Take home the rolling sushi mat as a souvenir!

Take home the sushi mat you used to roll the sushi during the experience. Why not replicate what you learned at home and relive the memories with the exact same sushi mat? Bring out all the flavors with your handmade sushi, a taste that is hard to beat!

Pair your sushi and tempura with sake, the perfect accompaniment

Why not purchase the optional sake set, a perfect pairing for your sushi and tempura? This set includes two glasses of 90ml sake, each with its own unique aroma and flavor that bring out the most of the food. Make sure to enjoy this sake alongside Japanese cuisine.
