Tokyo 요리 수업

So wonderful and sweet! Felt like hanging out with a family member or friend. Soooo delicious and tasty! Heavily recommend!!!

If you are looking for an authentic ramen making experience that caters to a vegan diet, look no further. I've been to many vegan cooking classes in the US for american dishes and wanted have a true ramen making experience in the heart of it all. Kaori delivered; 15/10 experience! Kaori is an exceptional host, chef, and great person. She was able to provide an experience through the market identifying the ingredients for the ramen and gyoza, open her home to create an exceptional meal, and provided translations to common phrases you need to get around Japan. In addition, she even gave recommendations to local restaurants and shops. My husband and I had such an amazing time making ramen and gyoza and were too full after 😅 it was a highlight of our first trip to Japan. Definitely would recommend to everyone to book this experience before you spend time at any other tourist attraction. This experience beats any view you pay for in the city.

I had such a lovely time at this onigiri-making class with my friends! The sweetest grandma taught us how to make onigiri and shared so many helpful tips and little tricks along the way. It was such a fun and heartwarming experience, and we got to enjoy making something delicious together. I would especially recommend this experience for families and children it’s a wonderful way to spend quality time together while learning about Japanese food and culture. A fun, hands-on activity for all ages! 🍙💕

I was honestly surprised by how easy and enjoyable it was to make onigiri by myself. The instructors were incredibly kind and always ready to help, especially toward the end when I needed a little extra guidance. I made tuna mayo, beef, and eggs , and all three were so delicious. One of my favorite moments was taking photos together at the end the way everyone smiled and waved made the whole experience feel especially warm and memorable

The onigiri experience taught me a lot more than I originally expected! I've made onigiri before but never been taught in a more home-style manner, and it showed! My first onigiri was rather embarrassing, but with the help of the chefs teaching I was able to create a beautiful onigiri I could be very proud of, plus be able to make for my family in the future. And of course, the onigiri was delicious too - great ingredient selection! I think you'll get even more value out of it if you learn some basic Japanese food words first, but the entire experience was in English.

The experience was great. The chef explained everything fully detailed and the meal was great with quality local ingredients. I would repeat and recommend it with no doubt

It was such a lovely experience and very enjoyable! I did not know before that tofu is so versatile and can cook that many flavorful dishes from it. Morimi san is such a lovely lady who is welcoming and patient throughout the lesson. The cooking steps were easy to follow and at the end of the class, we enjoyed the delicious meal together. I have already got all the ingredients and looking forward to recreate it myself at home!

Great experience, loved it

My first time joining an onigiri-making class, and I had so much fun. 🍙🤍 Please take a moment to read this. This experience was such a privilege and something I'll always remember. While I enjoyed learning how to make onigiri, what truly captured my heart was hearing the story behind it from our teacher, who has spent years perfecting this craft. Many people think making onigiri is simple and technically, it is. But making it with love, compassion, dedication, and a genuine desire to nourish others is what makes it truly special. That is the secret ingredient you can never replicate. We also learned that the rice they use comes from Niigata's Sekikawa Village (関川村), where premium Koshihikari rice is grown. The clean water and rich natural environment of Japan contribute to the exceptional quality and flavor of the rice, making every bite taste even more special. After hearing their stories, I realized that what they truly want to share isn't just how to make onigiri it's the heart, culture, and tradition behind it. It's about showing the world what makes Japanese onigiri different. I'm so grateful to have experienced this. It wasn't just a cooking class—it was a beautiful lesson about passion, craftsmanship, and sharing kindness through food. A memory I'll always cherish and one I'm happy to share with others. 🇯🇵🍙

The lesson moved at a great pace, which felt really comfortable! And the taste? Absolutely perfect! 👍 I loved how the instruction was tailored to my preferences and how carefully the flavors were checked along the way—it was fantastic! For the mushroom mixed rice, the dashi stock made from dried shiitake mushrooms and kombu was excellent. We cooked it in a pot, so we even got to enjoy the crispy, caramelized rice crust (*okoge*) at the bottom! Turning the used kombu into *furikake* seasoning was a delicious example of eco-friendly cooking! Tomoko-sensei’s homemade pickled *koume* plums paired perfectly with the rice—it was incredibly delicious! Then there was the tofu steak! With that all-purpose sauce, making a steak is a breeze—a truly superb dish! The potato potage was also easy to make and delicious. 😋 Adding a dash of cinnamon to change up the flavor was a brand-new experience for me! I devoured it in no time! Next was the stir-fried eggplant with miso. Mmm, so tasty! The hand-torn shiso leaves added a lovely accent. The lesson was packed with treats—Tomoko-sensei’s homemade salad, plum wine, plum juice, and matcha jelly—leaving me completely satisfied! Above all, it was such a fun time, filled with wonderful hospitality! The food was delicious, of course, but the conversation while cooking was just so much fun. It feels like that positive energy is infused right into the dishes! I’d love to sign up for another class!

This was an incredible experience and Masako was a knowledgable and friendly instructor; she shared recipes from her own life and answered all our questions. The food was delicious, we learned a lot, and we are extremely grateful for the experience. Thank you Masako!

It was a delicious and enjoyable experience! It’s great to experience Japan’s rice culture, too.
