Tokyo Halal Clases de cocina

My ramen-making experience at Ramen Dojo was one of those special experiences that I will remember long after leaving Japan. Sensei Yoku was absolutely wonderful—patient, welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing the art of making ramen. There is something incredibly rewarding about learning the process step by step, working with your own hands, and then sitting down to enjoy a bowl of ramen that you actually created yourself. What made the experience especially memorable was Sensei Yoku. He made the class feel personal rather than simply another tourist activity, and I left with a much greater appreciation for the skill, tradition, and care that goes into something as seemingly simple as a bowl of ramen. I’ve taken several hands-on classes during my travels, and these are often the experiences I treasure the most because they allow you to connect with the people and culture in a completely different way. Ramen Dojo was exactly that kind of experience. Thank you, Sensei Yoku, for sharing your knowledge, your patience, and a little piece of Japanese culture with me. An absolutely fantastic experience and an easy five stars!

Fun activity and value for money. Host was lovely, guided us how to make and helped us take pictures and videos of us making the Taiyaki. As we only eat halal, we could only make matcha and red bean Taiyaki - which were plant based. Highly recommend this activity for anyone looking for a fun activity to do in Asakusa!

So wonderful and sweet! Felt like hanging out with a family member or friend. Soooo delicious and tasty! Heavily recommend!!!

If you are looking for an authentic ramen making experience that caters to a vegan diet, look no further. I've been to many vegan cooking classes in the US for american dishes and wanted have a true ramen making experience in the heart of it all. Kaori delivered; 15/10 experience! Kaori is an exceptional host, chef, and great person. She was able to provide an experience through the market identifying the ingredients for the ramen and gyoza, open her home to create an exceptional meal, and provided translations to common phrases you need to get around Japan. In addition, she even gave recommendations to local restaurants and shops. My husband and I had such an amazing time making ramen and gyoza and were too full after 😅 it was a highlight of our first trip to Japan. Definitely would recommend to everyone to book this experience before you spend time at any other tourist attraction. This experience beats any view you pay for in the city.

The experience was great. The chef explained everything fully detailed and the meal was great with quality local ingredients. I would repeat and recommend it with no doubt

The lesson moved at a great pace, which felt really comfortable! And the taste? Absolutely perfect! 👍 I loved how the instruction was tailored to my preferences and how carefully the flavors were checked along the way—it was fantastic! For the mushroom mixed rice, the dashi stock made from dried shiitake mushrooms and kombu was excellent. We cooked it in a pot, so we even got to enjoy the crispy, caramelized rice crust (*okoge*) at the bottom! Turning the used kombu into *furikake* seasoning was a delicious example of eco-friendly cooking! Tomoko-sensei’s homemade pickled *koume* plums paired perfectly with the rice—it was incredibly delicious! Then there was the tofu steak! With that all-purpose sauce, making a steak is a breeze—a truly superb dish! The potato potage was also easy to make and delicious. 😋 Adding a dash of cinnamon to change up the flavor was a brand-new experience for me! I devoured it in no time! Next was the stir-fried eggplant with miso. Mmm, so tasty! The hand-torn shiso leaves added a lovely accent. The lesson was packed with treats—Tomoko-sensei’s homemade salad, plum wine, plum juice, and matcha jelly—leaving me completely satisfied! Above all, it was such a fun time, filled with wonderful hospitality! The food was delicious, of course, but the conversation while cooking was just so much fun. It feels like that positive energy is infused right into the dishes! I’d love to sign up for another class!

I had such a wonderful time! The food was delicious, and Yuka-san has a lovely personality. I’d love to come back!

도쿄여행 중 가장 즐거웠던 시간이었습니다. 평소에도 일본 가정식에 관심이 많았는데 유카 선생님 덕분에 잘 배웠습니다. 다음번에도 꼭 방문할 예정입니디 🙂👍 선생님 건강하세요 !

Great experience. Chef is so kind and the class is a ton of fun. Food tasted amazing and we learned a lot. High quality fresh ingredients from Japan. Highly recommended!

What a lovely experience making Udon noodles. Chef Chinki was most welcoming and clearly explained every step. She is very passionate about cooking with the best possible fresh ingredients to accompany the udon noodles. Many of them were new to me. Thank you for sharing your skills.

Kaori was such a nice and friendly host. Would definitely recommend the vegan cooking class for an authentic and very nice and yummy experience!

I had a very enjoyable and educational cooking class at Yuka's home. Everything was explained well, including the background of Shojin Ryori. The visit to the supermarket afterwards was also a real added bonus. Thank you, Yuka, for the wonderful day in your kitchen.
