Experience Details

Japan is a country full of delicious surprises, from its fresh seasonal ingredients to its world-famous Wagyu beef.


Skip the usual sushi and street food and dive into a hands-on experience with our Wagyu and 7 Japanese Dishes Cooking Class in Tokyo. This family-friendly class is taught in English, so no need to worry if your Japanese isn’t perfect.


During the class, you’ll learn to prepare a full-course Japanese meal using seasonal ingredients that showcase a range of colors, textures, and flavors. You’ll master multiple cooking techniques, from appetizers to dessert, while gaining insight into traditional Japanese meal preparation.


Once your dishes are ready, you can sit down and enjoy the multi-course meal you helped create. It’s a fun, hands-on way to experience Japanese cooking, explore new flavors, and take home skills you can recreate at home.


The menu changes monthly, offering you the chance to enjoy fresh, local flavors and popular dishes that locals love. Dietary restrictions can be accommodated, making this an inclusive experience for everyone.
