I really enjoyed it! It was an easy-to-make hand-rolled sushi bento. Both the side dishes and the dessert were delicious!

"We would also like to thank you again very much, dear Miho-san, for this first glimpse into Japanese cuisine and culture. Your friendly, calm and humorous manner was very pleasant. Thank you also for your patience in answering all our questions. Many of the foods and their preparation that you showed us were completely new to us- but we found that very interesting. You had prepared so much for us- I personally quickly lost my fear of embarrassing myself. Thank you so much for that, Miho-san! Your cooking class was a wonderful day for us, one that we will always remember." (It`s a translation from german to english by Google) Marjana, Tino and Martin Gedlich

We loved this workshop so much. The space is beautiful and so inspiring. We ended up taking a long watch on the trail through persimmon groves and found so many gems along the way including a magical in home tea house. Make the trip! It’s worth it.

It was fun to create dishes that were new to me such as sushi and tempura shrimp. The master chefs show us how to cook in many different ways.

This was a true hi-light of our trip. Yoko was both kind and welcoming to our party. She went out of her way to accommodate us even though I got the time wrong. So appreciated the menu, which took into account our vegetarian guest. We were truly delighted with the class and our experience. I highly recommend the class. Thank you, Yoko

This was a great experience and well worth the 30 minute train journey from central Tokyo. We were met at the station and shown around the local food market before we went to cook. She had some pre-prepared items which required pickling or seasoning for a few days, so that we could have the full bento box making experience. It was an exceptional lesson, with some good information about the history of bento including as a side. Overall, it was a friendly, communal cooling experience, with some excellent food.

Great experience. Made new friends, learned how to cook traditional (and yummy) Japanese dishes, and got to explore a super cute neighborhood (highly recommend spending some time after to poke around!).
