What to expect

Enjoy an authentic sushi-making experience using fresh fish sourced from Toyosu Market, one of the largest seafood markets in Japan. An English-speaking guide will carefully support you throughout the experience, from handling the knife to shaping sushi, making it enjoyable even for first-time participants. The experience takes place inside the House of Representatives building, where Japanese politicians work — a location that is normally closed to the public and rarely accessible to visitors. Your host, Sushi Chef Sasao, is a professional chef who has served sushi to Japanese politicians, including the Prime Minister. In this truly exclusive setting, you will create your own sushi and enjoy it freshly made on the spot. Discover a one-of-a-kind experience where Japanese cuisine, culture, and an extraordinary location come together — something you can experience only here.
