Speak with a Travel Advisor
Emi is passionate about cooking traditional Japanese home-style dishes. After years of learning from three renowned chefs, she became a culinary expert who can prepare almost any authentic Japanese or washoku dish. She recently decided to pursue her passion for cooking by opening her own cooking studio to share her passion for food and Tokyo life with others. A Tokyo native, Emi enjoys meeting travelers and learning about other cultures. She adores food from every corner of the globe but is also passionate about Japanese cuisine and teas, in addition to cats, photography and hiking! She has a deep interest in nutrition science and values using the freshest, top quality ingredients. Travelers will join Emi in her cooking studio for a cooking lesson during which they will learn to prepare 3-5 authentic Japanese dishes in the Teishoku style, characterized by the use of several vegetables as side dishes and a meat or fish as the main. Dishes might include ginger pork, chicken teriyaki, chicken karaage or slow cooked grilled fish served with a side of miso soup, nimono (slow cooked vegetables and meat with soy sauce), or stir fried egg and vegetables. The meal will end with dessert and traditional Japanese green tea. Please note that Emi's kitchen studio is not suitable for children 9 and under.

Tokyo
Huge department stores brim with shoppers, neon flashes from dusk to dawn, and the entire world pays heed to the slightest fluctuation on the Nikkei Index. From the Imperial Palace and Meiji Shrine to the fabled Ginza district, 20th-century Tokyo is an intriguing composite of East and West. Yuppies sporting Walkmen bow formally in greeting. Women in kimonos and Dior suits stroll side-by-side. Geishas play samisens while disc jockeys play the Top Forty. Japanese houses of wood and paper stand in the shadow of towering steel and mortar. Not far away, one of the world's most impressive sights soars 12,388 feet to its snow-clad peak: Mount Fuji, the majestic symbol of Japan.
