I had a fantastic experience at the soba noodles class in Tokyo! The instructor was absolutely lovely—so warm and welcoming and spoke excellent English, which made the whole process easy to follow.

The instructor was creative, patient, kind, accommodating and vey hospitable! As I am vegan and would prefer gluten free, she decided to make what I can eat—-100% buckwheat soba noodles. Though it was challenging, she made it with me. It was absolutely delicious and a great experience!
