Great day out!

Motonori was our guide. He was great. The food sample store Ganso shokuhin was great and the sample making was a lot of fun.

Fake Food, Real Fun!

Yuko, our tour guide, was WONDERFUL! She gave great context into how fake food making started, showed us some nice shops and translated well throughout the class. She made the price point of this class worth it! We thoroughly enjoyed the class and only wished it was longer and we could have made more items. If you are fascinated about the incredible fake food throughout Japan, check out this class. While a bit pricey, it was fun and now we have a one of a kind souvenir from our trip. If you just want to pick up some food items for souvenirs also check out the shop.
