A mother and her son visiting from Rome, Italy joined us in Ginza for an authentic sushi-making lesson. They raved, “You can hardly find this taste in Rome!” ✨ With plenty of thoughtful questions about nori and sushi vinegar, their deep love for sushi shone through—creating a joyful, smile-filled moment.

September is here, but Tokyo is still hot! This time we welcomed a guest from Taiwan living in the U.S. and another from Thailand. 🍣✨ A true sushi fan who even makes sushi at home, they asked lots of fun questions and filled the lesson with smiles and energy.

The family shared that every Friday back home is “Sushi Day”—they might enjoy sushi even more than many in Japan! They were full of curiosity, asking questions like how Japanese decide if fish is safe to eat raw, the role of pickled ginger, and the proper way to use wasabi. It made for a lively and fun session.

We welcomed a wonderful family from California and Texas. Even dad, who said he wasn’t into sushi, had so much fun making his own. Tuna was the star again—fresh, delicious, and enjoyed in many styles!

They enjoyed a true tuna feast with gunkan, hand rolls, and seared tuna, while also showing amazing nigiri skills — so good that we half-jokingly suggested a career change to a sushi restaurant. At Sushi Academy Ginza, we do our best to accommodate each guest’s requests, offering a hands-on sushi experience that is both fun and personalized. Just a short walk from Ginza Station, it’s the perfect way to create unforgettable memories during your stay in Japan.

During the busy Obon holiday season, we welcomed two families from Israel for a private sushi-making lesson in Ginza. The lively session was filled with smiles and laughter, with eel being the crowd favorite. At Sushi Academy Ginza, we also offer private lessons tailored to your travel schedule.

We welcomed a lovely family from Miami to our sushi class, where their daughter’s love for nori inspired us to make extra gunkan rolls together. At Sushi Academy Ginza, guests can enjoy not only nigiri, but also gunkan and hand rolls. With sushi becoming more popular globally — especially seaweed — we focus on creating a fun and easy-to-recreate experience for everyone.

What sushi do Japanese people love at conveyor belt restaurants? Surprisingly, salmon takes the top spot! We’ll also dive into popular side dishes like chawanmushi and miso soup.

After your sushi-making experience in Ginza, why not take a short stroll and see what surprises the neighborhood has in store? From fresh ingredients to quirky discoveries — the journey doesn’t end with the last piece of sushi.
