Okonomiyaki Clases de cocina

Our teacher and translator were fun and encouraging as they taught us how to make gluten free takoyaki and okonomiyaki. They prepped all the ingredients, which were fresh and high quality. All the kitchen equipment were very nice and the facilities were excellent. If you have the chance, do take this class. It’s fun and rewarding to learn how to make these two delicious street food with gluten free ingredients.

Yoko-sensei guided us on the short walk from the meeting point to their kitchen where we learnt many interesting things about the ingredients and dishes as we prepared them. Will have happy memories when cooking the dishes at home using the knowledge and techniques learnt during the evening.

I enjoyed a lovely afternoon learning how to make Okonomiyaki. Tomoko san was a lovely host and instructor. I can’t wait to make it again at home. I will definitely be attending another one of her classes! Thank you!

Very much enjoyed our class Very personal with only 4 participants The chef and her assistant were knowledgable and gracious Great experience

We really enjoyed cooking our own okonomiyaki and takoyaki using gluten-free ingredients, which made this experience both enjoyable and inclusive. It was our first time cooking gluten-free Japanese food, and the ingredient substitutions worked very well. The instructor was patient, enthusiastic, and attentive, always making sure we followed the steps correctly and helping us whenever we struggled. For more complicated steps, such as pouring the takoyaki batter into the pan, a short demonstration or video with English subtitles would be helpful. Cooking together was a great way to learn about Japanese culture beyond sightseeing. This experience is especially recommended for families or groups of friends looking for a fun, memorable activity to share and remember after returning home.

This was a fun and hands-on cooking experience where we were able to prepare Japanese food ourselves using gluten-free ingredients, which is not easy to find. Although we had made okonomiyaki before, trying takoyaki for the first time was especially enjoyable and memorable. The instructor and translator were very supportive, approachable, and patient, helping us understand each step clearly and making us feel comfortable throughout the class. The cooking room was well equipped, and the atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming. A short demonstration or video at the beginning, along with a brief explanation of the ingredients and food background, would make the experience even easier to follow. Overall, it’s a great option for travelers looking for an interactive, inclusive cooking experience in Japan.

What a wonderful way to end our first trip to Japan!! Yoko is a wonderfully talented host, her knowledge of Japanese cuisine is extensive AND she is super friendly, genuine and down to earth. Oh and the cooking class is fun and you enjoy a delicious meal!! A perfect way to spend a quiet evening in Osaka.

Emi was wonderful. The food was great. Well with the experience. The okonomiyaki were the highlight.

I had a lovely time and learned a lot. 😀

Emi was fantastic! We learned to make THREE Japanese dishes. We we will cherish the memories and take them home with us. Emi also gave us the recipes! Communication was great. She was so kind and so patient and the food was excellent. We HIGHLY recommend this authenticJapanese experience.

We are still talking about our wonderful cooking experience with Chieko. Even though my wife grew up in a Japanese American home, Chieko taught us traditional methods we are anxious to try on our own. We took our teen granddaughter who loved the experience!

We had amazing time! The hosts were super welcoming, shared a lot of their food stories and had amazing English skills! 10/10 we will definitely come back for a different menu.
