Japan Kochkurse

This was one of the best activities we did on our Japan trip. Our hosts were so nice and the chef very knowledgeable on ramen making. Their capacity of English was also helpful because none of us spoke Japanese. I kid you not, it was the best bowl of ramen broth we’ve ever eaten… and the gyoza we made was also delicious. They even sent us the recipes to recreate at home. It was a very small, intimate group of people so all our questions were answered. We got to know them and became quick friends. I highly recommend and would take the class again if I ever came back to Tokyo.

Kaoru Sama is a wonderful teacher and is also very sweet. She took us through the history of mochi and the seasonal and festive relevance of it. She was very patient and spent a lot of time to give us hands on experience in making many varieties of mochi, both sweet and savory. Cooking is more about being intuitive than following a recipe, and Kaoru sama teaches you intuitiveness necessary for making mochi. P.S: go for the class on an empty stomach because Kaoru Sama will fill you up with more mochi than you can handle

Kaoru sama took us through the entire history of mochi and also taught us about more varieties than I knew existed. She is very sweet and a great teacher. Cooking isn’t just about a recipe, but intuition. She teaches you what to be intuitive about. I recommend going on an empty stomach because Kaoru sama will give you more mochi than you can handle.

Our cooking class with Masako was one of the most wonderful experiences we have ever had. Fascinating and delicious and she also generously made for us some special calligraphy which we will always treasure. Masako was patient, skilful and very informative, as well as generous-hearted and welcoming. It was a special thrill to learn that her home, where the class was held, used to be a hostel for samurai warriors during the Edo era

Our teachers were really patient with us, they took time to explain each ingredients we used during the cooking class. Thank you very much !

Everything done with care, quality and passion. Thanks

My daughter and I had an enjoyable class with Keiko, learned a lot about making vegan sushi, and had a delicious meal that we very much enjoyed. Keiko was a great tescher who answered lots of our questions about cooking and Japan. One of the big highlights of our trip to Tokyo!

Our hosts were wonderfully generous with their expertise and went above and beyond to have all five of us fully participate and enjoy the class. I learned a lot and had fun too ! Thank you

Chinatsu's class was super fun from start to finish. The dishes we cooked were simple, but extremely tasty - we'll definitely be making them again at home! Chinatsu was so friendly and customised the class to our liking. She taught us so much about different kinds of miso and how it is made. I would definitely recommend this class for anyone who is interested in an insight into Nagoya's local delicacies.

Katsuji and Bubu-san were a breath of fresh air, bringing so much humor to the class. Katsuji was very kind and made sure each person got 1 on 1 time when learning the cutting techniques. The food was delicious and filling. Our hosts were also understanding of any dietary restrictions, offering alternatives. We absolutely want to come back next time!

My wife and I took our cooking class with Yuca earlier this month. We loved it! We were welcomed to Yuca's home. She gave us very clear directions on how to get there. During the class, we learned a lot in the few hours that we were there. Yuca was very patient and clear in answering all of our questions and walking us through each step. The gyoza and ramen were both delicious, and we feel ready to obtain the ingredients we need and try it out at home.

We had a great and lovely experience which we won't forget with Katsuji and his friend showing us how make matcha, sushi and ramen in his home. Both of them were super friendly and so generous. Arigatōgozaimasu!

We had the absolute best time with Katsuji and Mayumi! They were excellent teachers. They’re so positive and energetic that the three hours or so we were with them fly by. We couldn’t recommend taking a class with them more!

The course was really well done. Our host Kaori taught us a lot about this style of cooking and was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed it.

From the first moment, we had a great time with Kurina! She has a huge knowledge around Miso, vegan Cuisine and Fermentation so we learned a lot from her. Also, the lunch she prepared was really amazing and sooo tasty! Would recommend 100%!
