My husband and I booked this class as our last fun experience on our honeymoon, and it was a great way to end our trip! Miyuki was a great instructor. She explained every step very clearly and had so much patience in answering our numerous questions throughout the class. The meal we created in the end was so delicious. We can't wait to practice what we learned back at home. Highly recommend this class!

Washoku: Authentic Japanese Cooking Class (Fushimi, Kyoto)
Cooking Classes
Really enjoyed our session with Rina!! She picked us up from the monorail station, which made it really convenient to get to her place. Moreover she was readily available over email from the day we booked the event. She was warm, personable and communicated well in English with us. She had a carefully selected menu that introduced us to local Okinawan ingredients like goya, mozuku, Okinawan bonito, awamori, beni-imo and other Japanese ingredients such as kombu, bonito, konyaku, Japanese mountain yam, mochi etc. Her professional kitchen in her home gave both a pro- and a home cooking flavor to the whole session. She guided giving us hands-on opportunities with chopping, mixing, frying, ... while we sipped Japanese tea through the evening. The resulting meal, arranged traditionally in the bento boxes, was as delicious as it was beautiful. The star of the evening was the dessert- mochi wrapped in tender ginger leaves (from her garden!) and steamed in a bamboo steamer. Our time (and money!) was very well-spent and I would recommend her highly to anyone interested in an evening of Japanese cooking.
