In Tokyo, tuna cutting is a show. You sit, you watch, you applaud. We hand you the knife instead.

Cut the Tuna is a guided, hands-on tuna-cutting experience — built for groups who would rather take part than spectate.

The Experience

A master leads. Then it’s your turn.

A professional tuna master breaks down a whole tuna in front of your group — the dramatic, blade-first spectacle Japan is known for, with every cut and every part of the fish explained as it happens.

Then the experience turns. Guided hands-on by our team, your guests step up to the board and take part themselves — the moment that turns an audience into participants.

The whole experience is hosted in English, start to finish, by the team behind Ramen Cooking Tokyo.

The blade is yours

Not a performance behind a rope. A guided experience where your guests do the cutting themselves.

Hosted in English

Every step explained and interpreted in English by the team behind Ramen Cooking Tokyo.

A private Tsukishima studio

Held at our own studio in Tsukishima, central Tokyo — never a crowded restaurant floor.
