Japanese chopsticks are shorter than Chinese ones and taper to a fine point, good for lifting bones out of fish. A Tokyo workshop has you shape and sand your own pair, in Shinjuku, Asakusa or Ginza. They’re the rare souvenir you’ll actually use every week.
Shape and sand your own wooden chopsticks in a 45-minute Shinjuku workshop, with traditional tools, optional Japanese engraving, and English-speaking help.
