The hosts were very welcoming and prepared all the ingredients firsthand, and while the chef explained the steps in Japanese, the assistant spoke good English and translated everything, making it easy to follow along with all the instructions. The explanations were clear and thorough, ensuring that even those with little cooking experience could feel confident in preparing the dish. I learned how to make the perfect omurice, from the flavorful fried rice to the smooth, delicate omelette. The highlight, of course, was the food at the end — it was absolutely delicious! The flavors were spot-on, and the whole process was both fun and educational. Highly recommend this class to anyone looking to try their hand at Japanese cooking!

Our tour experience was exceptional and unforgettable! Akiko and her sister were incredibly warm and welcoming, generously sharing not only fascinating stories about Asakusa but also unique insights into Japanese culture and history. They made every stop meaningful with details that enriched our understanding of the area. The tour offered a perfect balance of captivating information and local delicacies. We sampled an array of traditional treats, both sweet and savory, including strawberry daifuku, a deliciously crispy minced wagyu croquette, perfectly seasoned rice crackers, and several other delightful surprises. Each bite added to the cultural immersion, making it an experience we will cherish for a long time.

Gosh - such a great time! It was just like we were in a byFood video. She took us through Harajuku explaining the sites, eats, and giving off those special Shizuka vibes the whole time! She was a spectacular host. Our group was small, so easy to make quick (drinking) friends. Food was fantastic, and the non-food activities were a blast. 10/10 would do again! :-)

Discover Iconic Japanese Street Food Delicacies

Japanese street food offers a wide array of iconic dishes that cater to various palates. One of the most famous is Takoyaki, deliciously crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside, these octopus-filled balls are a must-try. Then there's Okonomiyaki, a savory pancake made with a mix of ingredients such as cabbage, meat, and seafood, topped with sauce and bonito flakes. For sushi lovers, discovering Sushi at street stalls provides a new perspective - it's often simpler yet bursting with flavor. Another favorite is Yakitori, skewered and grilled chicken pieces seasoned to perfection, often paired with a refreshing drink. And of course, no Japanese street food exploration is complete without savoring Taiyaki, fish-shaped pastries filled with sweet red bean paste.

Engaging in food experiences focused on Japanese street food gives you a deeper understanding of the culinary techniques and rich traditions behind each dish. From participating in cooking classes to joining guided food tours, these experiences are designed not only to satisfy your cravings but also to educate and immerse you in the culture.

So, whether you're a seasoned foodie or a curious traveler, these food experiences provide delightful memories and a taste of Japan’s culinary heritage.
