京都の食体験

Our time with Hiro was absolutely lovely. The food he took us to eat food that was simply delicious and was able to cater to my wife who has celiac. He is very knowledgeable, and the tour after the dinner was very fun and educating. He took us to see the nicest parts of Gion which were very beautiful.He made our first day in Kyoto an absolute blast and gave us a taste for more. Would definitely recommend this, it was perfect

We had a wonderful time at this tea ceremony, led by Hiromi Fujiwara together with Eclat, and two of her lovely colleagues. From the moment we arrived it felt personal rather than touristy. Before the ceremony, they gave us a tour of the house and shared its history, including old photos of the family who owned it and the story of their brewing heritage. It gave real context to everything that followed. The ceremony itself was beautifully done. We went through each stage: waiting, purifying ourselves much like at a Buddhist temple, and then the ceremony. We were served sake beforehand, and sweets both before and during. Hiromi and her team explained every step clearly and guided us so we could take part rather than just watch, which made it much more meaningful. Afterwards we could choose an additional activity. We all picked calligraphy, and it was a lot of fun. Throughout, there was time to chat and get to know our hosts, who were kind and welcoming. As a final touch, they gave us our calligraphy to take home, along with matcha powder in a lovely box. A thoughtful, hands-on introduction to Japanese tea culture. Highly recommended!

I never knew Kichi Kichi Omurice had a class until I found out through byFood and when I tell you that I RAN to sign up, I’m not kidding. It was so worth it! Chef Motokichi is a great mentor and teacher and so inspirational. To not only be in the company of someone who is a master of his craft but to also be able to learn from him is a dream. I can’t wait to hopefully be able to go again and to report how I’ve been practicing what he taught me at home~

I had an amazing experience with Motokichi-san. At first I was very nervous since I don't have much cooking experience, but soon I noticed that worry was unnecessary. He taught us in a very entertaining and easy-to-learn way even by wasting literally a carton of eggs... At the end one of our friends were able to make the very definition of "Omu rice" that melts down with a slight knife cut! I would absolutely recommend this experience to those who visit Kyoto

Excellent! Timings were great and had a lovely lunch at the end. Catered for gluten free really well so highly recommend for people with allergies etc. We had two female chefs whose English was very good and who taught us all brilliantly by demo and then you copy! Highly recommend 😊

This experience was worth it, we learned some new things about different kinds of soy sauce, Music products and vinegar. You can bring it into real practise while you make your own dinner with real hands-on tips and tricks from Marie! She is a lovely woman who shows her Passion for the Japanse cuisine with you and helps you out with all your questions, you get invited into her home for a true feast of Japanse food that you will love. I'm definitly going to try out some of the recipes she gave us to try and infuse them in a western-style cooking. Thank you Marie dor the experience it was a lot of Fun!

Kichi Kichi’s Lesson was hands on and incredibly fun. We were able to make and enjoy our own omelet. I can’t wait to make it for my kids. The chef’s energy was out of this world.

Value for money and lovely experience! We managed to experience making different types of wagashi as well as experience making and drinking matcha while having our Wagashi! This workshop is muslim friendly as they do not contain animal based or alcoholic ingredients. Recommended. Thank you for a lovely experience!

I had such a wonderful time joining the Kichi Kichi Omurice Experience. It was really special to learn directly from such an iconic omurice chef in person and the experience was both fun and educational. He was very friendly, entertaining, and knowledgeable, so the whole atmosphere felt warm and memorable.I also felt like I learned useful tips that I could actually try again at home. When I made omurice afterwards, my omelette already turned out better than before! The T-shirt was also a lovely souvenir and made the experience feel even more special. Overall, I think it’s a very unique and memorable experience for anyone who loves Japanese food and wants to learn more than just the basic recipe. It was fun, personal, and something I’ll definitely remember.

When talking about omurice, it's always easy to think of kichikichi, especially when researching Japanese foods that you have to try when traveling to Japan. Being able to practice and learn from the master of omurice is a tremendous and rewarding honor. We had a very detailed explanation of everything beforehand, but making our own omurice was a very fun and a unique experience. If you're thinking of doing it, I would definitely do it again because it was worth every memory.

Ive decided to sign up for my son (24) and I (55) to take this. I was afraid it was too childlish but we both ended up enjoying so much. It was easy enough but took some challenges that made us excited to work in fake food making! I was amazed how people came up with all technique and process to make wax food so real. We made a great memory and something to laugh about all evening. We have to stay active and young, to play more. The best part is this is something everyone can do, 5 yrs to 90yrs, I think its the best easy and fun activity! I hope people try this.

I had an amazing experience! The chef was incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the omurice was absolutely perfect. Host Motokichi chef made the experience truly unforgettable. He shared so many interesting stories, and the meal was unlike anything we've had before. If you're visiting Kyoto, this is an absolute must-do. Highly recommended! I had an amazing experience!
