We booked a cooking class for Udon, Tempura and Gyoza. What makes the class so special is the hands-on style of Emi and the opportunity to really experience the making of some comfortfood-dishes. We had no problem understanding Emi and we are excited to try the dishes at home. Thank you so much!

This was a great tour with Kumi. It was a bit of travel but good to be in a different area. No hotel meet for our tour. The Saki tasting was great and an amazing Ramen for lunch. Kumi is a great tour leader and I’m looking forward to returning on another tour one day.

Toshimaya Shuzo Sake Brewery Tour

Food Tours

Super friendly! I came solo and they still made it feel like a team experience. I kept forgetting to take pictures and the staff kept asking to use my phone to take pictures of me. After the experience, I was sat at a table on the side to enjoy my Taiyaki, then I packed what I couldn't eat. There are ample fillings to choose from, too. So glad I came! Now I know how to make Taiyaki at home :)

I hesitated at first because of the price but I can say that it is totally worth it! I was alone so I got a private workshop. Yuko has excellent English and her explanations were simple and interesting. she was patient, professional and kind. and I learned a lot about Japanese sweets and through them about Japanese culture. In addition, I experienced making delicious matcha. Highly recommend!
