Local gastronomy tour personally overseen by a two-star Michelin sushi chef in Kitakyushu, a region known for its seafood and local charm

A true gastronomical experience: visit a fishing port, go fishing, and savor sushi prepared by the two-star Michelin sushi restaurant Edomae Sushi Nikaku

"The Kitakyushu region is one of the best areas for fishing in Japan, offering a diverse array of outstanding seafood. Fascinated by the climate and seafood of Kitakyushu, Edomae Sushi Nikaku has earned two Michelin stars for its sushi that takes full advantage of the local climate to showcase the history and tradition of Edomae-style sushi through unrivaled flavor.

Edomae sushi, a traditional Japanese style of sushi handed down since 1830, requires not only abundant fresh seafood, but also the speed and skill to prepare it precisely. Because of the delicate nature of Edomae sushi, there are very few places even in Japan, let alone the world, where it can be properly prepared.

Edomae Sushi Nikaku is very pleased to offer this local gastronomy tour to share the charms of the Kitakyushu region, which facilitates the crafting of exquisite Edomae-style sushi, and introduce Edomae-style sushi to foreign visitors.

The tour includes a visit to the local fish market where Kitakyushu's diverse seafood are brought ashore, as well as a chance to go out to sea and catch some of the abundant seafood yourself. Later, you will be treated to courses of the finest sushi at Edomae Sushi Nikaku, all while learning the history, culinary culture, and techniques of sushi craftsmanship as part of a one-day guided tour.

Visit Kitakyushu to experience the true essence of sushi."
