OUR FRIENDS

We started the development of this school during the first days of 2004. Along with our chef, Mr. Abe, we have gathered much information about sushi, prepared articles, instructional videos, and other content over the past four years and set it up to help people learn about how to make sushi. When I look back on all the things we have accomplished, and look at all of the things we had to overcome, I can recall many unexpected things that happened. Although we came up with the idea of Sushitrainer ourselves, we could not have gotten this far without the help of our many friends and business acquaintances. I am extremely grateful to everyone who helped us reach our goal. 30 years have passed since Mr. Abe and I first came to America. We are also very glad that we have been able to come this far and live this comfortably for such a long period of time in America. We started this website with the goal of serving the people of the greater L.A. area, helping them to create their own sushi in their own homes. We hope that this site is able to help many people to do this.

Mr. Abe and I are both over 50 years of age, and we may be considered old by many people. I as well as Mr. Abe are thinking of returning to Japan by the age of 60, as we are both thinking we would like to live out the rest of our lives there. As a requital of a favor for all of the wonderful years we have been able to spend in America, we thought it would be a wonderful idea to start a sushi school with the idea of helping everyone learn the correct way to make and enjoy eating sushi. We also would like to introduce many cultural items to you, and have therefore assembled an array of articles on Japanese culture. This includes many artifacts and customs spanning hundreds of years of Japanese history. We are not just a sushi site that teaches about sushi, but a site that has much information on general Japanese culture. We will continue to create articles and content in order to further your knowledge on sushi and Japan. Sushi has spent a long period of time here in Southern California, and is known to many as one of the best places to get sushi. We are proud to help keep the tradition of Southern California sushi alive, and will do our best at Sushitrainer to continue this tradition. Thank you very much for your support.
