Kanazawa: Japanese Rice Sandwich Making with Local Aunties 2026 Autumn

Make your own colorful Onigirazu, a Japanese rice sandwich, with friendly local aunties. Choose your fillings, wrap it yourself, and enjoy your creation together in a warm, home-style setting.
Step into Auntie’s Table and experience Japanese food in a more personal and interactive way.

Looking for a truly local experience in Kanazawa—something beyond temples, gardens, and standard tours?
This intimate food experience takes place inside a traditional Kanazawa machiya townhouse that is over 100 years old. Step away from the usual tourist spots and enjoy a more personal side of everyday life in the city.
You’ll be welcomed into a warm, home-style space by friendly local aunties who greet you like family.
Together, you’ll make your own colorful Onigirazu—a Japanese rice sandwich made with rice, nori (seaweed), and your choice of fillings such as egg, vegetables, salmon, tuna mayonnaise, Spam, bacon, sausage, kinpira gobo, and other Japanese favorites.
Layer the rice and fillings onto nori, fold it into a neat package, and slice it in half to reveal the colorful cross-section. Rice paper is also available for guests who prefer not to eat seaweed.
This isn’t a formal cooking class, but a relaxed, hands-on experience where your local hosts gently guide you while sharing stories about Japanese food, daily life, and Kanazawa.

Whether you’re traveling alone, as a couple, with friends, or family, Auntie’s Table offers the warm feeling of spending time in a local Japanese home.
