Fish&Dish Tsukiji Fish Market Tour
We offer a guided tour around Tokyo's famous Tsukiji Fish Market which also includes a special sushi and sashimi making class with a professional chef!
During the tour around the diverse and bustling Tsukiji Fish Market, which has approximately 700 stalls, we will purchase some delicious fish from the local sellers. Afterwards the master chef will give you a sushi/sashimi making lesson at a local store at inner market.
You will cut and trim the fish yourself, make sushi, and eat it immediately while it's still fresh. You can also enjoy your meal with Japanese sake (1 drink is free, but you can also buy and bring your own drinks). The taste of fresh sushi is absolutely exceptional!
Once you have practiced and remembered how to dress fish and make sushi, you can use your newly acquired skills back home, invite your friends and family over, and surprise them by preparing sushi for them!
This tour is offered on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays from 10:00am.
Please note that the tour is not private and other guests may join too.
