Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

Very fun!

Reviewed by: Barbara

Owner and stuff were amazingly friendly and took the time to explain the instructions. I laughed when one of the staff members to please flatten the ramen noodles like a frisbee. These are awesome souvenirs and me and the boyfriend enjoyed it a lot. It's a unique experience for sure. The class itself doesn't take too long, maybe 30-40 minutes? It depends on how many things you're making and if the instructor is busy. If you have the chance, i highly recommend this experience! You take your product home right away, they packaged my deluxe parfait very carefully in a box and then into a bag to take home. It'll take 24 hours for the silicone (the "whipped cream" to fully harden.

貸切観光タクシー 西国霊場札所めぐり 岡寺＋長谷寺＋法起院＋南円堂 ＜7時間／1～9名／奈良市内送迎可＞ by 服部タクシー

最高！　記憶に残る、値段以上の素晴らしい体験でした。　服部タクシーの鈴木（幸）運転手さん、本当に有難う御座いました。

Reviewed by: のりべい

５分前にホテルのロビーに行くと、既に待っていて呉れ、丁寧な挨拶の後、こちらの旅の目的が何かを聞いて呉れた。その後も何度か、次の訪問地の確認や提案があり、最高の時間を過ごせました。壺阪寺から半世紀振りの岡寺を回り、山田寺跡地、長谷寺と室生寺とこちらの希望に沿った絶妙はルートであった。　又、車も綺麗で十分にスペースがあって居心地が良かった。　更に最後に、少し時間が余ったので、元ジャニーズの元聖地の一つでホテルへ改装中の元奈良少年刑務所（本当です！）等、奈良市内で少し寄り道をして呉れた。　服部タクシーの鈴木運転手は、礼儀正しく親切だが押し付けがましく無く、知識も豊富で、素晴らしいガイド。　彼のお陰で最高の一日を過ごせました。　これ以上ない体験を本当に有難う御座いました。

Tokyo Kintsugi Workshop: Simple Gold Repair Class near Shin Koenji

Fantastic

Reviewed by: Erica

I had a wonderful time at the one-day intro kintsugi class. In the class, we learned the basics of repairing a chip in a teacup and decorating it with gold lacquer and powder.

The instructors Yoshiko-sensei and Yoshiichiro-sensei are amazingly talented and kind. I brought in a broken plate that I wanted to repair, I thought it would be easy to fix because it had broken cleanly, but it was a lot more complex than I had imagined. Yoshiichiro-sensei and Yoshiko-sensei reassembled it for me, which involved the construction of some impromptu armature to prop up the pieces correctly since the broken pieces do not lie flat, as well as some intricate filing work. I got to paint the lacquer and metallic powder.

The workshop is stacked high with kintsugi treasures, and they also have a pottery studio next door.

They packed up my teacup and my plate really carefully for me to take home. After two weeks of curing, I can wash off the extra powder and see the results. I can't wait!!

If you've seen documentaries or read about about kintsugi or lacquerware, you may know that lacquer from lacquer trees (urushi) can cause a severe reaction like poison ivy, and that it requires really precisely-controlled humidity conditions to cure properly. In this class, we used lacquer from cashew trees, which is not irritating and can cure in regular room-temperature conditions, and once it's cured, it seals the cracks just as effectively and food-safely as lacquer tree urushi.

Top tier plastic food workshop in Tokyo

Reviewed by: Pradeep D

Our instructor was very knowledgeable about the history of and how to make plastic food. He stayed with us for the entire time, letting us do all the different steps while lending a helping hand to keep us on track. He spoke very good English and used a translator app to explain more involved steps for detail work. The experience is great for people of all ages, kids around us were having a blast. We have very cute souvenirs and lovely memories to take home with us - 100% recommend this experience to anyone visiting Tokyo and looking to learn something unique!

Tokyo Kintsugi Workshop: Simple Gold Repair Class near Shin Koenji

Fabulous experience

Reviewed by: Sarah

Yoshiichiro and Yoshiko were both wonderful hosts. We had a lovely tea and delicious Japanese snacks first and conversed with other attendees. The hosts spoke good English and one of the other students did as well which made the experience very enjoyable. I was able to choose from about 5 or 6 ancient tea cups and Yoshiko gave most of the instruction on how to mend and decorate. She had lots of examples in the shop which helped with ideas.

Perhaps the best thing about this experience was the wonderful energy exuded by the host. Just incredibly warm and gracious people.

Highly recommend!!

We had so much fun taking this class. It's a small, family-run shop about a 5 minute walk from the Kita-Ikebukuro train station. They gave good instructions in english on the voucher, so we had no problem finding it. Our teacher was really helpful and spoke great english- we had some good laughs using the translator app too. We chose the ramen class and loved our creations. Fun, simple, creative thing to do in Tokyo- would recommend to anyone! Very approchable business, we felt totally comfortable.
