Kintsugi Workshop: Beauty in Brokenness

Step into a real kintsugi studio and experience the soulful Japanese tradition of mending, reverence, and renewal. Under the guidance of a skilled artisan, you’ll learn how broken pottery can be transformed into something even more beautiful by highlighting its cracks with shimmering gold. This hands-on experience isn’t just about technique—it’s about embracing imperfection, discovering patience, and connecting with a philosophy that treasures history rather than discarding it. As you restore your own piece, you’ll come to appreciate how every fracture tells a story, and how the art of kintsugi mirrors life’s capacity for resilience and grace. Guests leave not only with their own golden creation, but with a deeper understanding of Japanese aesthetics and a renewed sense of the beauty that can come from brokenness.

The Okonomiyaki Counter: Hiroshima Edition

Get a front-row seat to the sizzling art of Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki, a dish that layers cabbage, batter, noodles, pork, and egg into a savory, golden harmony. Unlike the Osaka style where everything is mixed, Hiroshima’s version is all about careful stacking and balance. From your spot at the teppan counter, you’ll watch a skilled local chef guide the process, then try your hand at flipping your own creation if you like fun and hands-on, but never stressful. Whether you cook or simply enjoy, you’ll leave with both a delicious taste of Hiroshima’s culinary pride and a story worth sharing.
