In this class, with all the materials and ingredients included, an instructor guides you step by step to prepare nigiri and maki rolls: how to cook and season the rice, handle the fish and shape the pieces with the correct technique. The session is hands-on and fun, suitable for beginners, and at the end you sit down to taste your own creations. The class lasts between an hour and a half and two hours and starts at around 4.000 ¥ depending on the menu and the number of pieces. Many sessions are given in English and held in small groups, so it is advisable to book the slot in advance.
