Amazing experience! - My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this experience! Our instructor, Chikako, was wonderful. She was so friendly and knowledgeable. She made us feel comfortable even though we had never made sushi before. The ingredients were super fresh, right from the local market that morning. This, in turn, made for a delicious AND beautiful final product! Yes, you get to eat everything, even the extra ingredients that didn’t make it into any of the sushi! Chikako also made us a special dessert to enjoy at the end of our meal. It was superb! I can’t say enough good things about this experience and our trip to Japan as a whole. It is something we will remember always. Thank you Chikako and In Kanazawa House!

A highly-recommended Kanazawa experience - A lot of fun and great food. The Kanazawa House sushi-making lesson conducted by Chikako (and the lunch following) was excellent.

Excellent sushi making course - Would recommend this sushi making course. The two ladies who showed us how to make sushi were excellent. They were very friendly and answered all our questions on all aspects of Japanese food and Japanese culture. Located in an old building which had previously been used for silk dying. All the ingredients had been purchased earlier in the morning from Omicho market and beautifully laid out ready for us. We had a very enjoyable time and also ate the sushi we made.

Interesting and Good Fun - We enjoyed learning about Sushi and making it to eat for lunch. The girls were very friendly and put us at ease so we got the most out time with them. Very good English was spoken so it was easy to understand all we were told. Try it you will enjoy the time and learn something in the process.

Must do Kanazawa! - Loved this 1.5 hr sushi making experience. May (excuse me if this isn’t how she spells her name) is a wonderful host. All place settings are beautifully laid out and all ‘ingredients’ for sushi prepared. May explains the local style of sushi and shows examples of how to create them. After this each person gets to choose any ingredient combination to create 6 huge and elaborate pieces. I was really impressed at the number of options to work with. 5 types of high quality sushi fish and over 13 various vegetables and accoutrements to pair with it. After the pieces are created you sit down at a beautifully set table to enjoy. Super fun!

Highlight of Kanazawa Visit - This was a highlight of our first visit to Japan. Our teacher was so friendly and made us feel at home. She gave us a brief history of sushi and then showed us how to make it. Our reward was eating our own creations. Also, the house where the experience takes place is beautiful and serene. The neighborhood is very nice too. I highly recommend joining one of their programs.

This is a must do experience! - This is a great experience for anyone spending time in Kanazawa. In a beautiful traditional house you get to push your skills into sushi making. Maya san and Shige san are very kind people. The ingredients are well prepared in advance leaving you lots of room to use your creativity. I will for sure come back and tell my friends about it.

Delightful delicious experience - The whole experience- setting in the old dye factory with Japanese garden, fresh food preparation and entertaining sushi making instructions (in easy to understand English) - was wonderful. Then to eat what we made !

Fun Group Activity - The Japanese food cooking class was very hands-on and we learnt many techniques along the way. There was a great variety in the dishes that we cooked and they were things that I would certainly try at home. The teacher and staff are very friendly, helpful and hospitable. We highly recommend taking the cooking class. January 28, 2020
