Great food - Kanazawa 10/10 - Akari was a great food guide, we booked the tour at the last minute and her communication in pulling it together was fantastic.

Getting to know a local ! - We met a lovely guide, Saki, who showed us local restaurants we never would have found on our own. While learning about the food, and history of the area, we also enjoyed Saki’s company and great conversation !

Tailored food experience in a foodie haven - Akari was an excellent host. She was in touch after making the booking and worked with me to tailor the experience to what I was looking for, in this case local sushi and the seasonal delicacy Crab. She managed to get a booking at a sort out place with little notice. Would highly recommend.

Filling Food Survey of Kanazawa - Met Jorge in the hotel lobby. Kanazawa has great food and we started with sushi at a restaurant in the train station. In fact, we could have spent the evening there since the sashimi was so good but we then moved to dining on grilled meats at a Korean barbecue. Finally ended up at a restaurant that serves tempura skewers. Jorge was very entertaining and gave us a good perspective of an expatriate working in Japan. Nice tour for a survey of Kanazawa cuisine.
