Experience Toyosu Market like an insider with exclusive access to the off-limits wholesale area, hosted by an internationally renowned Chef.
This experience is an extension of our daily work, sourcing ingredients for our Omakase restaurant in Tokyo.
Join us in this process, selecting seafood alongside the Chef and stepping directly into the rhythm of our working kitchen.
You will learn how professionals select seafood at peak quality: from seasonality and texture to fat content and freshness indicators. Alongside expert vendors who supply Japan’s top restaurants, you will also gain insight into how different fish are best handled and cooked, and why certain cuts are chosen for raw preparations, grilling, or aging.
