Japanese Onigiri Tasting Tour in Asakusa with Local Expert

On this tour, you'll explore Kappabashi—Tokyo’s legendary kitchen district where top chefs from around the world shop for professional tools. This area is packed with long-established specialty stores, and I’ll take you to the hidden gems that only locals and chefs usually know. You’ll also taste a variety of uniquely Japanese seasonings and natural-style nori to experience the delicate differences in flavor. These products make perfect high-quality, unique souvenirs to take home.

The Asakusa and Kappabashi areas are known for having many excellent onigiri shops. During the tour, we’ll visit my top recommended spot—personally selected as an onigiri sommelier—where you can enjoy freshly made onigiri. I’ll help you order and guide you through the best fillings, so feel free to ask anything about onigiri or Japanese rice. If you have dietary preferences such as gluten-free, vegan, or other restrictions, please let me know in advance. I’m happy to accommodate whenever possible.
