Our group of international guests had a great time learning to make the nerikiri and the proper way to enjoy matcha. Even our Japanese colleague learned new things that she didn't know before. A translator was also provided to help with communication. We even got to take home our creations in a plastic container. Would highly recommend to all!

When visiting a country, we are always curious about what local life is like. This home cooking tour offers the perfect immersive experience. Our host, Akiko, warmly welcomed us at the station before taking us to her family-owned, third-generation ramen factory. The machines impeccably clean, and we even had the chance to work on the production line, choosing our own ramen to make. Back at Akiko’s home, we prepared multiple authentic Japanese dishes with her detailed, step-by-step instructions. This wasn’t just a cooking demonstration—we were involved in every step, making it both fun and educational. Akiko and her family were incredibly kind, making us feel completely at ease during the 4-5 hours we spent cooking and dining together. She had put a lot of thought and effort into preparing every little detail. By the end, there was an abundance of delicious food and drinks for everyone. Without a doubt, this was the most immersive tour we have ever experienced.

This class was super fun! Yuko-sensei is a gracious host and an excellent teacher. The class is a cozy and welcoming experience in her home, and you'll leave with cute and delicious goodies 💕 I have to be gluten free, so it was really great to have a few experiences I could freely enjoy without worry. Yuko-sensei was very conscientious about allergies and communicated ahead of time to ensure everything was fine. Since I got two lessons, I was able to do them back to back which was very nice! You'll have a great time, get some tasty recipes to replicate at home, and a chance to explore a very cute neighborhood. Go for it!! (Doubling this review for both my taiyaki and wagashi classes. Both were fantastic!)
