일본 코셔 수업

A great session with Takako, learning about Japanese home cooking and the benefits for fermented foods. Tasted koji, kombu, mirin and a variety of soy sauces. Takako then made some healthy and delicious dishes, which was a good change from some heavier restaurant meals. The recipes were also provided! Would definitely recommend.

A definite highlight of our trip to Japan. From the moment we walked in, Midori-san showed us great hospitality by serving us tea and sweets. She is very friendly and lively, and we felt right at home. She asked about our itinerary and gave us detailed recommendations. This was close to the end of our Japan trip, but I'd strongly recommend booking this near the start so you can benefit most from her suggestions! The cooking class was great and Midori-san was very patient and clear in her instructions. We made vegan onigiri, gyoza and ramen. The onigiri was surprisingly simple to make and we also received printouts of the recipe. After only being back in the US for a few days, I have already made onigiri for lunch. The gyoza and ramen were equally delicious. Make sure to come with an empty stomach! After we finished the food, she even walked us to a nearby supermarket so we could pick up the ingredients to make them at home. Overall, Midori-san went above and beyond to make this a great experience for us. There are of course many things to do in Kyoto, but as a tourist it's rare to be able to have an experience like this where you are welcomed inside a local's home. I strongly recommend this class.

One of the highlights of our trip. Midori is very well informed and likes to share knowledge about the food and culture. She gives shopping tips not only for food items but also for other hobby-related stuff like knitting or sawing. She even took us to a local supermarket to show what products are available and where to get them. Because Midori prepared the easy stuff in advance the cooking class was able to cover 3 whole recipes with a lot of background info. We should have done the class in the beginning of our trip because of all the good tips. We wish Midori all the best!

Kaori was such a nice and friendly host. Would definitely recommend the vegan cooking class for an authentic and very nice and yummy experience!

I had a very enjoyable and educational cooking class at Yuka's home. Everything was explained well, including the background of Shojin Ryori. The visit to the supermarket afterwards was also a real added bonus. Thank you, Yuka, for the wonderful day in your kitchen.

This is such a great family experience! It’s a very cool and unique souvenir that you make yourself. The staff is so friendly and we really enjoyed it!

This was such a fun experience and was a highlight of our trip! Yuichi taught us all about the history of fake food making and it was really interesting. He walked us through the whole process and now we have a really cool souvenir that sits on a shelf in our living room! I can't speak highly enough of Yuichi. Not only was he an absolute delight and did a great job communicating everything to us in English, he was so kind and fun. He made us laugh, we had a great time, and he even sketched us a map telling us where to go for lunch. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough!

Just finished our memorable experience making a Parfait and Ramen bowl! It was easy and we got to take home a great moment for our efforts. Our instructor was very friendly and helped us through every step. I highly recommend this class.. it was worth it!

Absolutely amazing. The entire experience was educational, fun and delicious. Thank you for welcoming us into your beautiful home and making our day special. We will remember you and the experience for many years to come

Learning to cook was the objective, Miss Yamakasi made it an unforgettable experience. Connecting and bonding through food and the preparation thereof was everything I'd hoped for. Would happily recommend!

Loved the cooking class with Midori. I am gluten intolerant, not coeliac, she was able to accommodate and made sure all food was safe. We made onigiri, gyoza and katsudon, everything was delicious! Midori San is a great host and we had a lovely chat about a lot of things including Japanese cuisine and places to visit in or around Kyoto. I can definitely recommend!

Such a fun experience! The instructors communicated the steps for creating our parfaits very well in English. We enjoyed practicing our Japanese conversational skills with them as well.
