I did the Miso workshop with Naomi. Absolutely amazing. If you love ferments, health, miso, japanese cooking and flavours or have no idea what any of this is - I highly recommend. Naomi is a lovely person and it really feel like you are getting the true cultural vibe in her shop. Its like being at home Naomi and staff are so friendly and relaxed. It was one of my favourite experiences in Tokyo and the whole Japan. Im home now and inspired to turn my kitchen into a fermentation palace, jus like Naomi. Naomi a picture of health, so it has reinforced to me why I want more of this lifestyle.

Amazing experience. Tomoko is a very talented chef, and she taught us to make some of the most delicious and fluffy Japanese pancakes I have ever seen.Even though the activity is not supposed to take more than 1.5 hours, she spent about 3 hours with us, and allowed us to try a couple of times and she also prepared additional japanese desserts for us, and provided us the recipes. You can tell she really enjoys cooking and teaching people. All in all, it was well worth the money and I encourage anybody who wants to learn how to make authentic japanese pancakes to try this experiance.

I had an incredible time at this cooking class! The chef was so friendly and gave clear, easy-to-follow explanations, making it fun to cook authentic Japanese dishes myself. The recipes felt like genuine home cooking, and the English translation of the entire cooking class was perfect. The experience was both enjoyable and educational—highly recommend for anyone who loves food or Japanese culture!

Japanese Home Cooking Class in Tokyo (Onigiri & Tamagoyaki)
Cooking Classes
This was a fun and interactive presentation of two of Japan's favorite comfort foods, onigiri and tamagoyaki. Admittedly, I'm not the greatest cook, but with their expert guides I was able to make easy and delicious snacks. I'm confident that with the recipe sheet provided and the right ingredients I could make these at home in the U.S. Participants were encouraged to do all the preparation themselves and with an expert translation we were able to copy the Japanese chef's instructions easily. It was a really nice experience. I would highly recommend.

The food was really yummy. It was easy to cook. We shared the experience with five other people so it was okay. I just wished that we had at least one more (side) dish with more seasonal ingredients or used vegetables and fish.
