The lady who described and translated everything into English for us was very good at getting the information across. Recommended. I would go again.

This is a wonderful experience! We attended the lunch event in Asakusa, and there were 48 people in attendance. It did not seem like that many at all. The hosts ran a seamless event, and there were so many smiling faces from everywhere! It started with a demonstration with 2 retired Sumo wrestlers, and an education on the history of Sumo/rules etc. Anyone who would like is able to wrestle after and everyone gets to enjoy pictures. All hosts and the wrestlers were super kind, ran an efficient event, and created a welcoming and enjoyable atmosphere. The bento lunch and Chanko meal after was enjoyed even by my 12 year-old. There was a super informative Q&A during the meal. Who knew that Sumo wrestlers could eat 300 pieces of sushi in a given meal, while training?! If you have a few hours, this is an experience that is a total find for all ages!Wonderful food at reasonable prices. Beautiful presentation as to all the wonderful dishes served whether it be the suishi, hibachi dinners or my personal favorite the Beef Negimaki. The hibacchi dinner is truly a fun and lively show with your dinner. The drinks are also flavorful and unique.
