Q
”Sushi” is famous Japanese food. IT is as simple as putting a fresh piece of fish or shellfish on cooked vinegared rice (shari) and eating it with served soy sauce. When you come to Japan for sightseeing, we recommend that you experience sushi-making on top of just eating. We are introducing places where you can actually experience sushi-making.
