Great service and experience. We went as a family with 2 kids age 10 and 12. We made delicius food and they were good to help us make the dishes. Good at speaking english and helping. It was a super experience as a family and a great way to learn about japanese culture and food. They did so much to make it a good experience for us. We can therefore give our best recommendations.

Ikebukuro Home Cooking Class (Tamagoyaki and Sushi Rolls)

This was a great experience and well worth the 30 minute train journey from central Tokyo. We were met at the station and shown around the local food market before we went to cook. She had some pre-prepared items which required pickling or seasoning for a few days, so that we could have the full bento box making experience. It was an exceptional lesson, with some good information about the history of bento including as a side. Overall, it was a friendly, communal cooling experience, with some excellent food.

Tsukiji Market Tour and Sushi-Making Class with Chef Saisho
Cooking Classes
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!
