For the past 30 years, chef Katsuhiko Miyamoto, or Miya, has been cooking up authentic Japanese recipes in restaurants all over the city. His vision is to share his skill and knowledge with all who care to listen. Besides, sushi is huge in Jozi and is a great way to impress friends and family.

Capsicum Culinary Studio

This studio is all about getting behind the science and design of food. With over six branches nationwide, Capsicum is fast becoming the go-to food school in the country.
