A Japanese cooking class at your villa
Roll sushi and nigiri, simmer a dashi and make a home-style Japanese meal together in your kitchen, then sit down to eat it. A small-group class with Chef Elliot Fabri, who trained in Japanese kitchens in Tokyo.
Dashi and noodles
Build a dashi from scratch and turn it into a bowl of noodles with toppings, the base of everyday Japanese cooking.
Home-style dishes
Okonomiyaki, simmered vegetables and greens: Japanese home cooking you can make again after the trip.
