Sarah Wedgbury Consulting aims to improve awareness of, and education on, all aspects of Japanese cuisine including sushi, miso and sake and is currently running a series of tutored sake tasting dinners at Matsuri St James’s. We have the ability to produce and implement bespoke training sessions for your staff to a high standard and are able to recommend specialist suppliers of high quality Japanese food and sake.

We can also assist in sourcing local, fresh and seasonal produce suitable for Japanese cuisine, as well as being able to source specialist crockery and restaurant equipment.
