Dining Experiences

Fantastic experience and a really unique way to learn about ramen! It was fascinating to taste the individual components that go into the ramen and then combine them ourselves to see how the flavors evolved as we built the dish. We learned a lot about the thought and craftsmanship that goes into each element. The bowl of shoyu ramen prepared by the kitchen at the end was terrific and a perfect way to finish the experience. The English was also very solid, which made the experience easy to follow and enjoy. Highly recommend for anyone who wants to understand and appreciate ramen on a deeper level!

Awesome experience that we would recommand to anyone. The people there were so friendly, especially the owner. She took very good care of us and we loved talking to her. She was very patient and kind to teach us everything about ramen. So thank you so so much

It was an amazing experience to see all of the little details that are put into making great Ramen. Each detail and step was explained to us and we were able to try each ingredient individually to give us a better idea of how it all comes together. If you are interested in understanding how a great bowl of ramen comes together this is a must do tour!

The experience is speechless and incredible, the step by step tasting help me to understand how the layering of ramen stock become so tasty, where I gained more understanding about umami. You also get a chance to make your own mini ramens as well as a bowl (or two smaller bowls of ramen with 500 yen top up) plus the special dish which incorporates ramen toppings and French cuisine techniques. What a wonderful time spending at the shop. If I really had to suggest only one flavor, the shouyu one is my pick.

A really fun evening. The food is great and the sumo show is very entertaining.

Tomoko greeted us at the door and was very friendly, gracious and kind, despite that we were obviously foreign. We had a group of three and only I spoke a little Japanese . After greeting us, she took us upstairs, had a spot where we could place our belongings and saw that she had already set up three different stations for us. She asked for a group picture first-which we were happy to oblige, asked where we were from and then we jumped right in. All instructions and the entirety of the tour was in Japanese. However, we had no trouble understanding and communicating with each other. If anything, it added more to the experience and surprisingly, made it more enjoyable. There were no awkward silences or moments of confusion. Tomoko took cues from our body language and facial expressions as we did hers and it was a phenomenal experience! Portions were generous and she served cold, refreshing tea that she diligently refilled each time our glasses got close to being empty. Tomoko did everything herself. From setting up the stations to teaching and guiding the tour and breaking down each station while we were enjoying our meals. She was efficient but also attentive to our needs. At the end of our experience, she gifted us with handmade boxes made of obi and tins of ceremonial green tea. She also gave us a bonus item she called "a gift" which was a place mat she made from kimono. We loved our tour with Tomoko and I recommend everyone experience this. You will not regret it!

Very good ! The Host was amazing, it was very interesting ! Mitsuyo Hamada was amazing, nice, give us a lots of information ! Very patience ! Now we understand more the way of Ramen ! It was a good moment. Thank you very much ! Merci beaucoup !

Very interesting to hear more of the art of broth making and how to compose your perfect ramen. Best ramen we have had in Japan! They even helped us with our planning for the rest of the day with useful activities for a rainy day. Super!

It was a fabulous experience, and definitely worth the price. The meal was artistically prepared and presented, and the server accommodated my dietary requests with substitutions once I saw the menu. The lady who performed and instructed the tea ceremony was very sweet; I can't imagine how many wagashi she has to eat every day! I will recommend to any friends who visit Tokyo.

Wow. I cannot give enough superlatives to the wonderful wagyu beef,dining experience. Our guide showed us Kyoto nighttime sites after the dinner. What a plus!!!! You need to book this.

We enjoyed the tour very much! Felt like a specialized Japan only experience which is what we wanted. The ramen was delicious snd the staff was so friendly!

I absolutely loved this experience! My favorite. This really a one of a kind experience and can’t wait to tell more people I know about it.
