I loved my experience with Yuko-San. She was a very sweet lady who wants to make sure you get the best experience possible. The cooking was pretty fast paced but it's because she wants you to have the time slow down and enjoy the sweets you made while drinking a cup of tea and chatting with her. She is interested in you and wants to know about your story. If you learn Japanese before booking this class, you will gain even more from this experience since you will able to connect with her even more. I truly think she makes the experience worth it. It is much better than a step by step Youtube video. It felt more personal. Arigatō gozaimasu Yuko-San

We had such an exceptional experience! A sincere thank you to our host, Kaoru, who thought through every detail end-to-end to ensure a seamless experience. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it - not only the fantastic mochi lesson, but most importantly her company and the time she took to explain mochi's significance in the Japanese culture. This made such a great memory for our trip that our family will cherish for a lifetime. We will book another lesson with Kaoru the next time we are in Tokyo for sure. Thank you again! ❤️

Our friend group did this cooking class together on our first trip to Japan and the ladies were both so sweet and helpful. Everything we learned to make was much easier than expected and the printed instructions are so easy for us to follow at home for a delicious traditional meal.

Exceptional experience! Yuko was so very warm and patient. What are extravagent Japanese desserts, she made it so easy to make and construct beautiful art. The home environment was cozy and peaceful, overlooking the Kanda river. Truly immerse yourself in the authentic making of mochi desserts, learn the history, and get ahooping advice for tools and ingredients. This is a must activity if you like Japanese desserts.

We had an amazing experience with Satoko. Her class is exceptionally well delivered and she provided a great background on the cultural significance of mochi as well as the techniques to make it. She went over and beyond to make it a memorable experience and I will be recommending this class to any friends visiting Tokyo!

Our group had so much fun with Yuka and her associates. All of the prep work was done ahead of time so that we were ready to go when we got there. She took care to make sure it was a positive experience for everyone. While the food was beautiful, it seemed possible to prepare it in a home kitchen as long as you have access to the ingredients. We communicated easily in English. You do a lot of forming the final products, but not as much of the actual cooking, so it is a little less hands on than some classes I have been to in the past. However, I don't think it would be possible to make so many dishes in just 2.5 hours otherwise. Yuka does send a Google Maps address ahead of time. It is the correct one as a sort of demonstration kitchen of the restaurant. It is not, however, the actual restaurant, so don't get confused and go to the wrong place.

Simply fantastic! Yuko is a highly skilled person with the utmost pedagogy. She is very nice, and so is her family. I had a terrific time, learned a lot, could ask many questions, and ended up with a bunch of delicious wagashi :) Highly recommend!

This class was super fun! Yuko-sensei is a gracious host and an excellent teacher. The class is a cozy and welcoming experience in her home, and you'll leave with cute and delicious goodies 💕 I have to be gluten free, so it was really great to have a few experiences I could freely enjoy without worry. Yuko-sensei was very conscientious about allergies and communicated ahead of time to ensure everything was fine. Since I got two lessons, I was able to do them back to back which was very nice! You'll have a great time, get some tasty recipes to replicate at home, and a chance to explore a very cute neighborhood. Go for it!! (Doubling this review for both my taiyaki and wagashi classes. Both were fantastic!)

Perfect for vegan enthusiasts and mochi lovers alike, these classes will introduce you to the art of crafting mochi that is both ethically satisfying and delicious.

Mochi, a beloved staple in Japanese cuisine, traditionally consists of glutinous rice pounded into a sticky, chewy paste.

Here, our cooking classes are specifically designed to overcome this challenge by focusing on vegan versions of both classic and contemporary mochi dishes. You will learn how to select the right ingredients, master the techniques, and blend flavors that respect your lifestyle choices without compromising on taste.

These cooking experiences are designed to be informal yet informative, offering you the chance to learn through doing. During the class, you'll share the kitchen space with fellow mochi enthusiasts, enjoying a social environment that's perfect for exchanging tips and experiences. Not only will you enhance your cooking repertoire, but you'll also come away with a deeper understanding of vegan substitutions and how to creatively incorporate them into everyday meals.
