Fresh ingredients and quality rice

It is not an exaggeration to say the ingredients of sushi is the key to making delicious sushi.
We provide plenty of fresh seafoods caught from the ocean of Izu!
The rice is grew by contract farmers in Noto Peninsula, Ishikawa Prefecture.
The sweet and delicious vinegar is made from the traditional big bucket in Kisai city.
We use wasabi grew with the clear water from Amagi, Izu.

Feels like a sushi craftsman

When you put on the working clothes and hat, you would feel like a sushi craftsman.
Follow the instructions and make a hand-formed sushi. Take a handful of rice and gently knead it. Put the toppings on it, and you get a hand-formed sushi made on your own.
It seems easy but surprisingly take some practice to master.
After finish kneading all the rice and toppings, enjoy the sushi with everyone.
Even though a little bit clumsy, sushi made by yourself would be tasty no matter what.
You can bring the Japanese style hat home as souvenir!
