Tuna Masterclass: Head-to-Tail Cutting Ceremony
Bar Wa Izakaya – October 7 | 6:00PM
Ticketed Event | $160 | Limited Seats Available
Join us for a truly rare and unforgettable evening celebrating Japanese culinary tradition with a live head-to-tail tuna cutting ceremony.
This isn’t just a feast — it’s a masterclass in culinary artistry. Watch as a whole bluefin tuna is expertly broken down in front of your eyes, with precision, care, and respect.
The Ceremony
Led by skilled chef Narito Ishii-san & Bar Wa's very own head chef Yosha Leewood, this traditional cutting ceremony honours both the fish and the fishermen who brought it to shore. Each cut reveals something new; from prized o-toro to lean akami.. while sharing insights into the traditions, techniques, and the journey from ocean to plate.
The Dining Experience
The evening will culminate in a curated dining experience that celebrates the versatility of tuna in Japanese cuisine. Guests can expect fresh sashimi, inventive courses, and bold flavours, all thoughtfully paired with Sapporo, Yebisu, and a selection of premium sake. Guests will be guided through the exceptional selection of Japanese beers, with shared tasting notes and pairing suggestions to enhance the experience.
Whether you're a seasoned foodie or simply curious, this is an immersive dining experience that blends education, tradition, and indulgence... all in one night.
