Why Sushi Is Loved in Japan—and Around the World
Sushi is more than a meal in Japan—it’s a symbol of tradition, precision, and harmony. Originating as a method of preserving fish centuries ago, sushi has evolved into one of the world’s most recognized and beloved cuisines. In Japan, sushi is celebrated for its purity, technique, and respect for seasonal ingredients. Every element, from the rice to the knife work, is approached with mindfulness and artistry.
Around the world, sushi continues to grow in popularity due to its elegant simplicity, clean flavors, and visual appeal. From neighborhood sushi bars in California to fine dining in Paris, sushi offers something universal: a culinary experience that connects people, places, and cultures.

Beyond the joy of creating and tasting your own sushi, this experience is highly practical. Many attendees take their knowledge back home to recreate authentic Japanese meals for family and friends.
