Thank you to Amy and the team for such a unique and wonderful experience. Took a memory back home with our very own hand crafted chopsticks. The tour was so well organized, with information and history provided in every step. The meticulous details in the chopsticks show the amount of love, patience and work being done. We made our own Ramen and Udon chopsticks together. Great experience for a group of friends or even as a couple. Thank you for this little memory! Had a lovely time!

I had no idea there were so many types of chopsticks. Even if they're a bit awkward, I'm sure I'll love the pair I make just for myself. It was also fun finding souvenirs for my parents from the many choices available.
Amazing experience!
