Experience Details

It’s one of the easiest Japanese dishes to learn to make, however, tempura isn’t your ordinary deep-fried food. This genius dish has had everyone hooked since the first time it was made hundreds of years ago, always a crowd favorite among busy people who crave a filling meal. Made from a simple batter, somehow it’s so refined in taste with a light, irresistibly crunchy texture. You just have to eat tempura in Tokyo!


Tempura is a classic Japanese food and a versatile dish that almost everyone can make. What’s great about tempura is that it only calls for few ingredients which are probably already in your kitchen at home, so you can whip it up after learning how to make it at this Tempura Cooking Class in Kappabashi. You’ll learn the basic steps: how to coat, deep-fry, and serve authentic yet scrumptious tempura, and make soups and rice to eat with it. You’ll make diverse, deep-fried tempura in Tokyo at a tempura cooking class, where you can have it as seafood, vegetables, and even make tempura sweets! Complimentary green tea or Japanese sake will be served too, which is great paired with your deep-fried goodness, a pile of crunchy tempura in Tokyo!
