choose an experience instead of an object — and give a gift that will be remembered.

🎄 Looking for a Christmas gift that truly lasts? Give an experience.

Every year, Christmas comes around and we ask ourselves,
“What should I give this time?”
And before we know it, we choose perfume, candles, or another item that quietly ends up on a shelf.

But what if this year,
you could give a memory instead of a thing?

Sushi Yoko gift vouchers offer something special:
time spent together, shared smiles, and moments that stay in your heart long after Christmas is over.

    A deeper experience for those who want to explore the world of sushi in more detail.

🍜 Japanese Cuisine Class (4 hours)

This class focuses on popular Japanese home-style dishes such as
ramen and okonomiyaki.
You will learn practical recipes that are easy to recreate at home while gaining a solid foundation in Japanese cuisine.


🍵 Matcha & Mochi Class (2 hours)

Step away from everyday busyness and enjoy a calm, mindful experience.
Prepare matcha, taste traditional mochi, and spend two relaxing hours reconnecting with yourself and Japanese culture.

We also offer a Japanese Cuisine Master Class, where you can learn Japanese cuisine comprehensively over four lessons.

Across four sessions, you will cover sushi, Japanese cuisine (ramen and okonomiyaki), and matcha & mochi, learning each topic step by step from the basics.
