Highlights

Join a fully hands-on Japanese cooking class at a long-established culinary school just 3 minutes from Kanazawa Station.
This is not a demonstration—each guest cooks every dish with clear, personal guidance.


You’ll learn practical skills you can recreate at home, including sushi shaping, making dashi, fluffy rolled omelets, and Jibuni, a Kanazawa specialty with samurai-era roots.
We also share the cultural background of each dish.


We use fresh, seasonal ingredients, including premium seafood from Omicho Market, trusted by top local restaurants.
Real-time AI translation on a large screen ensures smooth communication in English.


Please note: Vegan diets and guests avoiding fish-based dashi cannot be accommodated.
Please inform us of other dietary restrictions at booking, as same-day changes are not possible.

Itinerary

  • Nakata Cooking School in Kanazawa for an authentic Japanese cooking experience.

    Join an authentic cooking class at a 56-year-old culinary school just 3 minutes from Kanazawa Station. After changing into a sushi chef uniform, you'll learn about Japanese food culture and ingredients with real-time AI translation support. You'll make five dishes with step-by-step guidance: • Nigiri Sushi – using wild fish from Omicho Market • Jibuni – Kanazawa’s signature chicken stew • Dashi-Maki Tamago – soft rolled omelet with a Michelin-style recipe • Dashi Broth – traditional bonito and kelp stock • Seasonal Side Dish & Miso Soup Use premium Japanese knives and, if you wish, visit our in-house Knife Museum (opening July 2025, 10% discount for participants). Photos will be taken during the class, and you’ll receive a beautiful certificate of completion. Enjoy your handmade dishes with a small aperitif (plum wine or sake). A hands-on, small-group class with local flavor and warm hospitality.
