A home-style cooking gathering

Background of request

A group of sixteen guests with a strong interest in food. The Italian travel agency requested a "cooking party", and we designed a two-hour programme at Kurabi Salon centred on takoyaki and temaki sushi.
The group included guests with various dietary considerations — gluten-free, vegan, and no raw fish.

Takoyaki

Temaki sushi

Ingredients were prepared individually for each guest's needs. Gluten-free soy sauce was selected, and fish-free options were prepared as well.
To fit both takoyaki and temaki into two hours, we structured the cooking process so that each guest could take part in the moments that mattered most.

Impression of the

PARTICIPANTS

"Despite the differing dietary needs, what stayed with us was how the group sat at the same table and shared the same time together. The takoyaki, in particular, drew everyone in."
