Today me and the Skijpan team went to Otaru with the newbies for a cultural/training excursion. It was pretty rad as we got to do sushi making, visit the sake brewery, visit a famous old house, and explore the town and stuff. I probably would have had a more enjoyable time if i wasnt so hungover from last night, and making and eating sushi with raw fish at 10am in the morning is not the best hangover cure!!
This house belonged to a very successful and wealthy herring fisherman in otaru about 100 years ago. The windows at the front are an obvious modern update to the museum. We were not aloud to take photos inside the house so these are all i have. And as you can see the weather was pretty epic...
Then we went sushi making in this rad old restaurant
The 'round eye' guide to sushi haha
My first piece turned out pretty well i reckon! Thats a raw tuna piece

Thanking the chef for showing us how to make rad sushi - Arigato!
This is the sushi restaurant - note the weather, in 2 hours it went from sunshine to dumping snow
