My cooking lesson with Yuka was perfect! She was very organized, her instructions were very clear, and time was well managed. The food I learned to make was delicious and easy enough that I feel confident I can make it again when I return home, and no now I have the recipes she gave me to help. I’m very happy with my experience.

This was such a fantastic evening! The staff were all super lovely and easy to chat to, and the facts we learned about rice were interesting and in some cases, blew us away a bit! The onigiri were fun to make, and the tasting presentation for the amazake and wagashi was just beautiful. Who knew there could be so much variation in flavour and texture! Browsing the wares afterwards it was difficult not to buy one of everything. We had such a lovely time, we hope to visit again on our next trip to Japan. 5/5 easily.
