Japan is famous for its version of Ramen Soup! Traditionally, Chinese ramen soup is almost always made from chicken bones. Japanese ramen soup, on the other hand, is not just made from chicken bones, but also ingredients that were never traditionally used in China, such as pork bones, shellfish, beef bones, fish, or even vegetables. **YUM!**

**Sushi** has long been a staple and delicacy of the culture and traditions of Japan, with different forms of preparations, styles, and serving methods that have turned this dish into a universal sensation all across the globe. Sushi offers an experience of natural beauty, excellence, and energy that drives our social, intellectual, spiritual, and biological evolution. It provides a level of satisfaction through both its simplicity and intricate level of preparation that brings upon people an emotional satisfaction and energizing spirit. Its visual aesthetics, presentation, and textures are as important as its taste, and no doubt define sushi as a true piece of art. On this journey, we will enjoy a hands-on Sushi making class all while savoring every bite of this Japanese legacy,

If you’ve ever wondered about Japan’s most intriguing cultural tradition, look no further as we will venture into the neighborhood of the Geishas!

Geishas are highly respected in Japan. The primary role of a Geisha – throughout history and in the modern day – is to professionally entertain, usually at teahouses and restaurants for parties of businessmen. This entertainment encompasses a variety of traditional Japanese arts, ranging from artistic performance skills like singing, dancing, and music to cultural traditions like calligraphy, tea ceremonies, and flower arranging. Japanese geisha are also trained to play traditional instruments like the flute or three-stringed shamisen. Hospitality and social skills like conversation and hosting are also key components of being a Geisha.

While seeing a Geisha in Japan is extremely rare, as we venture through the neighborhoods of Kyoto you just may get lucky!
