I had a fantastic experience at the soba noodles class in Tokyo! The instructor was absolutely lovely—so warm and welcoming and spoke excellent English, which made the whole process easy to follow. Not only did I learn how to make delicious, authentic soba noodles from scratch, I also learnt the culturally correct way to eat them. I highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Tokyo. It was the perfect blend of hands-on learning and fun!

We really enjoyed making soba noodles with this workshop. The instructions were really clear and the equipment was great. Some of the techniques you learn will also be useful for other cooking. We got to make two kinds of soba noodles, regular and with matcha, and both were delicious. After the workshop we had a lovely lunch with our noodles and some extras provided by the host. The host was very lovely and explained everything very clearly. All in all, we certainly recommend this to people who want to learn how to make soba at home!

Asako Sensei’s class is not only about cooking techniques but educates you about Japanese culture and philosophy. Asako offers a more in-depth understanding of the health (and health benefits of Japanese food), consciousness, and what hard work means. I think she demonstrated these concepts in a way that was fun and easy to understand. I also thought it was good that Asako Sensei can speak perfect English, her genial nature is easily accessible for foreigners who cannot speak Japanese. In this class, people can learn about Japan’s food and culture without going to expensive tourist spots.

The instructor was creative, patient, kind, accommodating and vey hospitable! As I am vegan and would prefer gluten free, she decided to make what I can eat—-100% buckwheat soba noodles. Though it was challenging, she made it with me. It was absolutely delicious and a great experience!
