After reading the excellent reviews I had to book this activity for me and my 16-year-old son (mid July 2023) and I have to agree with the other reviewers: it was a lot of fun and a unique experience. The instructor was really nice and helpful, he explained everything to us in English and was very patient and supportive. We had time to choose our "ingredients" and both our ice cream sundaes turned out really well. Due to the perfect packaging we brought them back home safely. We highly recommend trying it yourself!

友達との下町巡りで体験しました。
こんなに真剣に何かに取り組むなんて、学生時代を思い出して、みんなとても楽しいひと時を過ごしました。
出来上がったグラスは出来はそこそこでしたが、それぞれ格別の仕上がり。
とても楽しかったです!
日本の伝統工芸に触れるいい機会でもありました。またチャレンジしたいです。

The activity was a ton of fun! Me and my 7 year old attended, the instructor was very helpful and friendly with both of us and provided clear guidance and explanations. Our instructor's English was quite capable, and used a translation app to bridge the gap. As for the food samples themselves it was a lot of fun, easy to understand, and the results are super realistic! Great souvenirs!
Thank you for visiting us.

I've always wanted to make one of these food samples, and was happy to find this opportunity using the Chika Toku (extra value) system from the Tokyo Metro pass. Although the explanation was in Japanese, the staff made sure I understood what to do and even showed me exactly how to proceed. It was a wonderful experience and a fun way to spend a couple hours.
Thank you for visiting us.

I have been intrigued by kintsugi philosophy in the last few years and was thrilled to find this one-day workshop that enabled me to get some hands-on experience with the process. Yoshiichiro and Yoshiko were so kind and welcoming, making sure I understood each piece of the process and answering questions patiently and thoughtfully. Yoshiko took photos throughout the workshop and emailed them to me later (so grateful as I attended as a solo traveler), and Yoshiichiro wrote out my name in kanji so I could sign my cup in Japanese -- so cool! They even made sure I knew where I could purchase my own kintsugi materials here in Tokyo in case I wanted to try it at home on my own. At the end of the workshop, they packaged up my cup to ensure it will safely make the journey back home in my suitcase. I cannot say enough good things about this experience and its incredible facilitators-- this afternoon will remain of my most treasured memories from my time in Japan.

This was a wonderful hands-on experience in which you learn from two masters the craft of mending broken things. You are served tea and snacks to begin, then you get to choose an antique item to repair. You are guided step by step through the process and you end up with a functional and beautiful piece of your own to take home. highly recommend even if you don't think of yourself as crafty.

While the shop is a little out of the way (about a 15 minute walk from the nearest train station), it's 100% worth it. The people working and hosting you treat you like family and teach you about Kintsugi in an easy to understand way. And yes at least one of them knows English so that's not an issue. The shop is small but homey and the activity itself is very calming. Coming from someone who is not only bad at art but actively dislikes it, I plan to do this again when I come back to Japan. It will take anywhere from 2-3 hours total so keep that in mind. If you are on the fence about this, please do it. The people are lovely and you get to create and keep a unique souvenir all while learning a little bit about the Japanese culture, well worth it.

場所は一瞬通り過ぎてもおかしくないくらいの所でしたけど、お店の方がお出迎えしてくれてたのでわかりました。1階がお店で2階で体験させて貰いましたが、平日の昼間で参加者が少なかった事もあり、ゆっくり丁寧に教えて貰いました。練習もそうですけど、デザインとかグラス選びも焦らされることもなくアドバイスだけ頂けてやりやすかったです。
初めての体験で自分の技術では、やっぱり思ったようなデザインにできないかもとか思いましたし、途中少し失敗もしましたが、修正を先生に頼んだら、私のミスも何とかごまかせました。
近くで見たら色々気になる所もありますが、初めてにしては結構納得できるものができたし、機会があればまたやってみたいです。

There's a tablet with Google Translate available on-hand to help move through any language bumps, and staff was incredibly accommodating towards all levels of Japanese proficiency. I definitely plan to bring english-only friends back here on a future trip.

I am delighted to write a review for the experience I had with your company. The whole experience was lots of fun, and I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a unique and enjoyable activity.
The guide was very helpful and made the whole process of creating plastic models enjoyable and easy to follow. They even took the time to explain the history of plastic models, which added to the experience and made it more meaningful.
I was also very impressed with how the guide interacted with my son. They were very sweet and patient with him and helped him create his own bowl of ramen. My son was thrilled with the result and was proud to show off his creation to everyone.
Overall, I had a fantastic time with your company, and I am grateful for the experience. The guide was knowledgeable, helpful, and friendly, making the experience all the more enjoyable. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a unique and fun activity that the whole family can enjoy.
Thank you very much for participating in the food sample experience activity. Also, thank you for your review and high rating.

Wow. There is so much to say about this experience. First, if you take the meaning and the process to heart, it is a very powerful experience. Yoshiichiro and Yoshiko are kind, patient, attentive, and thoughtful teachers, and extremely cool people in general. They give you the guidance, and you have your process. Being with others in the intimate space was also really nice. This was beautiful and healing for me. They will teach you Kintsugi but are also ushers and stewards of the incredible potential the process holds for each person. I think it could be really fun if you just want to learn the craft and eat a yummy piece of cake, but there is a LOT more there if you allow it. Amazing.

An incredibly calming and enlightening activity! Yoshiko and Yoshiichiro are such kind and informative teachers who offer history and culture lessons whilst teaching the ancient art of kintsugi. The entire session was built around the interests of the participants and so much information was given for us to continue the craft at home. Yoshika also kindly gave a mini tour of the workshop and showed ceramics which had been featured on an international TV documentary. I will 100% return. Thank you, Kuge Crafts!
