Fukuoka 요리 수업

My daughter and I had a lovely cooking session with Sayaka in mid February 2026. I was gifted the lessons as a birthday present and Sayaka contacted me early to choose the 4 dishes we would learn how to cook. We choose udon noodles, gyoza, omurice and pork tonkatsu. The lessons took place in Sayaka's lovely apartment in Fukuoka; the apartment was easily accessible by train. Sayaka is really lovely and speaks English well so there was no communication issues. She is a terrific cook and provided very good written instructions on all the items we made. Sayaka had decorated the dining table beautifully with fresh foliage and gorgeous table ware. I would definitely recommend Sayaka's cooking class

We had a lovely afternoon learning Japanese recipes (some favorites and some easy new recipes). The home was close to the station and we were able to go through the grocery store looking at products we used, fresh fruits, meat, and fish. This was the first time we went to a person's house and we could not be happier with the experience.

This was such a a lovely way to be welcomed to Fukuoka! I was especially excited to learn how to make Hiroshima style okonomiyaki. The conversation was great and we even got to practice quite a bit of our Japanese! It really felt like we were at a friend's home and I think that was a special experience. Highly recommend if you like to cook and want a true local experience!
