Japanese Cooking Class

Add to wishlist

A Sea-to-Sushi Culinary Experience.

A journey from ocean to plate. To truly understand Japanese cuisine is to understand its deep respect for the ingredient.

NIHI’s Japanese Cooking Class is an experience that invites you to embrace that philosophy in its purest form, by heading out to sea to catch your own fish before stepping into the kitchen.

After your time on the water, you’ll learn how to carefully fillet your catch and transform it into delicate, flavourful sushi under the expert guidance of our world-class Kaboku Restaurant chef. Along the way, you’ll discover the precision, restraint, and reverence that define this culinary tradition, complemented by dishes such as miso soup and sakizuke.

No AI. No filters. No added sound. Just pure, raw, beautiful moments, straight off the phone..This is how your day starts at NIHI.
This is not AI. This is NIHI..On the island of Sumba, horses are part of everyday life. Woven through generations in tradition, ceremony, and culture. Symbols of freedom, strength, and spirit.Each day across the island of Sumba, locals bring their horses to the shoreline, where they wade into the sea to bathe and swim in the saltwater. A ritual as old as the island itself.
Where horses race along the shoreline and every moment feels untouched. The sight of @nihi’s herd galloping down the white sand of Nihiwatu Beach is unforgettable. Framed by the Indian Ocean and swaying palm trees, this is a type of magic you can only find and feel on the Edge of Wildness.
Happy Easter from all of us at NIHI. 🐰Easter festivities spanned the entire weekend, with moments of celebration for guests of all ages. Children gathered for egg painting, arts and crafts, face painting, and set off with baskets in hand for the Easter egg hunt.A special performance by the choir from English Goes to Kampung filled the afternoon with music, while families came together to enjoy festive Easter dining.A joyful weekend of colour, creativity, and celebration. Happy Easter from the Edge of Wildness.
