Experience Details

Step into the laid-back coastal charm of Fukuoka with a hands-on cooking class in a local home kitchen.


Here, you’ll learn from Sayaka, a home cook with nine years of teaching experience.


Fluent in English and having lived in Europe and the US, she shares Japanese home cooking in a way that feels approachable and easy to follow.


During the class, you’ll prepare two beloved Japanese comfort dishes.


First is omurice, a bright yellow omelet wrapped around seasoned rice. This nostalgic dish has been enjoyed in Japan for over a century. With Sayaka’s guidance, you’ll practice the classic wrapped style, learning how to fold the egg smoothly around the rice.


Next, you’ll make tonkatsu, crispy deep-fried pork cutlets. Sayaka will walk you through each step, from coating to frying, so you can achieve a golden, crunchy crust while keeping the meat tender and juicy.


The class takes place at Sayaka’s home, offering a warm, relaxed setting. Beyond cooking, it’s a chance to experience a local Japanese kitchen and spend time in a comfortable living space.


Before the class ends, Sayaka will share tips for recreating each dish at home, so you can bring these flavors and memories back with you.
