Highly recommend this experience. My 9 year old and I did this and we were so happy. Even if you don't have experience cooking there is still lots of involvement and you get a great satisfaction from making the gyozas and ramen.

We saved this experience for the last days in Japan, and we should have done this from.the beginnint. The lesson with Kaori-san was fun, interesting and tasty! We also learned a lot of details about japanese eating habits, and plenty of information about veggie and vegan places and products we would have used from the start of our trip. It was one of our BEST investments there. It requires a bit of a metro Transit, but It is easy to reach and Kaori-san awaits for you at the station, with great english. Top choice.
