I LOVED this cooking class! Aki is so lovely, very knowledgeable and super helpful! I thoroughly recommend booking this class.
Aki was a great host with very thorough explanation and clear instructions. It was really cool to make the ramen noodles from scratch and the soup was delicious! Highly recommend this experience.
Learning to cook a homestyle meal that I can replicate at my home was a delightful experience with Aki. Aki explained and demonstrated everything very clearly and I am confident I will be able to recreate these tasty dishes! It really was like being with a friend in the kitchen! I was given choice over what I wanted to prepare and my taste foibles (I don’t like mushrooms!) were very graciously catered for! I highly recommend a cooking class with this lovely Tokyo mum!
Very engaging and educational ramen/gyoza making class from scratch. Very fun and Aki was very kind. Her English was great. She also helped us take photos for our memories as well! Would recommend trying her class with family or friends.
We had such a wonderful time cooking with Aki! My husband and I took this class on the last day of our Japan trip and it truly was a highlight of the whole trip for both of us. Aki was a wonderful teacher and helped make recipes that had previously seemed difficult o make at home so approachable. The food was DELICIOUS and we can’t wait to make the gyoza and ramen at home. We’ve taken several cooking classes on international trips and this is by far the best one we’ve ever taken. Thank you for a wonderful memory and recipes, Aki!
Aki was incredible. It was our first day in Tokyo and she was very patient, understanding and helped us across every step of the cooking process and made it so enjoyable. The food was incredible and she was made this experience a memorable one with her reassurance, guidance and intention to make it fun. I’d recommend this to anyone wanting to cook and learn more about Ramen and Gyoza and be in a fantastic environment.
Aki was an excelent chef , the class was very interesting and well done. I am very happy .
Aki showed us how to conjure super delicious ramen and gyoza. The food was excellent, every bite a treat. Aki was warm from the beginning and made us feel immediately welcome and at home. An all-round great experience – highly recommended!
I really enjoyed the cooking class with Aki-san. We prepared everything from scratch and it was all handmade, including cutting ramen noodles with a knife. I was able to improve my skills and also got more background information. It came with the recipe, so I will definitely continue cooking at home! It was a lot of fun and Aki-san took the time to show everything in detail and answer questions. I can highly recommend the course. Of course it was also very tasty! As a special gift I also got further tips and explanation after the end of cooking class. So if possible I would like to add an extra star!
This class was such an amazing experience! We had so much fun. Aki is a wonderful teacher! We learned a lot & left with such full bellies & recipes that we are so excited to try when we get back to Aus. Thankyou Aki ❤️
We learned how to make Ramen and Gyoza and got to eat it. It was fun and delicious at the same time ! We were also given the instructions to reproduce it at home. I would recommend it to anyone wanting to learn how to cook Japanese food.
This was such a fun experience. I have cooked alongside Aki-san before, and she is incredibly patient and instructional. I’m not a very good chef, but her support always makes me feel like I can cook anything! For this experience, we made shoyu ramen together. I had always thought making ramen must be difficult, but every step was broken down and easy to follow. It was very informative, and also delicious! I highly recommend this cooking experience if you’d like to learn the ins and outs of Japanese cooking with some fantastic teachers. Thank you for having me, Aki-san<3
I found the class very fun and informative! I loved learning about Japanese cuisine — it made me realize I can actually make it at home. I especially enjoyed making the noodles and broth. It was definitely worth the money, and I’m so glad I took away so much from the experience. I would highly recommend Aki for anyone interested in learning authentic Japanese cooking! Aki Sensei! Arigatou gozaimasu for sharing your knowledge and passion for Japanese cuisine with me!
