Food Experiences

Kunisada-san was a wonderful, welcoming host, and with an interpreter there was no language barrier. The soba-making was fun and the result was delicious, served with homemade tofu and tamagoyaki. Tip: it’s a bit hard to find, so enter from the side of the building and go to B1. Highly recommend!

Chiaki sensei was a very knowledgable instructor with many years experience.I look forward to using what I learnt to replicate the gluten free noodles at home.

The tour with Keigoh was fantastic! My wife and I had a great time with the pace. Each stop was very unique and intentional and all of Keigoh's recommendations were excellent. We highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in exploring the many sides of food in Osaka.

One of the most incredible experience I've had in a long time. Couldn't recommend it more. The people were incredible and the food was even more delicious.

Fantastic experience and great guide!

If you do one thing while you are in Kyoto, make it this! Aki is an amazing cook and a gracious and welcoming hostess. We learned so much about Japanese cooking techniques, flavours and ingredients. The meal was delicious, and the warmth and hospitality made it over the top.

Great. Lovely young fellow leading class.

This experience was truly a dream come true! 💕✨ From the very first moment, everything felt so warm, welcoming, and magical. She is not only an incredible teacher, but also the sweetest and most thoughtful host! You can really feel the love and passion she puts into every little detail. Her explanations were wonderful, and she made every step so easy to follow and enjoyable. I learned so much, and making Japanese fluffy pancakes was even more special than I had imagined! It was so much more than just a cooking class. It was a beautiful experience that I will cherish forever and one of my favorite memories from Japan Thank you so, so much for your kindness, patience, and for making this experience feel like a little dream. I enjoyed every single second and couldn't have wished for a more perfect experience! 🌸 I would recommend this class a thousand times over! 💕

I had a fantastic time with Sakura san, she's such a lovely person and great teacher. The mochi were delicious and it was nice to understand the cultural history behind the Japanese sweets. Chocolate the dog is a cutie pie ! Really great experience, cant wait to try again back home.Thank you Sakura san.

An amazing and immersive experience! The 5th-generation owner took us through the historic factory to show us the traditional, time-honored methods of making katsuobushi and shio katsuo. As we did not speak Japanese, we communicated this ahead of time and he kindly arranged an English translator so we didn't miss any of the fascinating details. The bonito flakes tasting over rice was a delicious highlight, and getting a souvenir to take home was a lovely touch. It’s incredible to see a historic craft kept alive here.

Our cooking class with Midori was absolutely fantastic and a truly unique experience! She was so warm and welcoming and took care of all our wishes. We learned so much about Japanese cooking, had a wonderful time in her kitchen, and the food was delicious. This was one of the highlights of our trip to Kyoto. Thank you so much, Midori! Arigato from both of us! ❤️ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Hands down, one of the BEST experiences I’ve had in Japan so far! Our hosts were incredibly warm, welcoming, and kind, making us feel right at home. We started with a beautiful traditional Japanese tea ceremony, followed by making all FOUR types of ramen ourselves! It was such a fun and memorable hands-on experience. They even surprised us with freshly prepared sushi! The sweetest part was the ending: our host personally wrote each of our names in Japanese on beautiful postcards for us to take home. Such a thoughtful keepsake! You can truly feel their passion for Japanese culture and genuine hospitality. I enjoyed every moment and wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Osaka. Thank you for giving us such a beautiful memory. Definitely a highlight of my Japan trip!
