A must do experience in Osaka for foodies, or anyone wanting to take home some new knowledge. Saeko was a great instructor and we walked away feeling confident that we would be able to cook these dishes at home, we cannot thank her enough for welcoming us into her home and providing a warm and inviting space. We loved that she came to the station to meet us and walked with us to her home kitchen, it took a lot of stress out of the day. Thank you again Saeko, hopefully we will meet again one day! :) 5/5
