Tokyo Vegetarian Cooking Classes

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.

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

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.

I had such a wonderful time! The food was delicious, and Yuka-san has a lovely personality. I’d love to come back!

도쿄여행 중 가장 즐거웠던 시간이었습니다. 평소에도 일본 가정식에 관심이 많았는데 유카 선생님 덕분에 잘 배웠습니다. 다음번에도 꼭 방문할 예정입니디 🙂👍 선생님 건강하세요 !

Great experience. Chef is so kind and the class is a ton of fun. Food tasted amazing and we learned a lot. High quality fresh ingredients from Japan. Highly recommended!

Delightful! Everyone in my family loved making mochi with Sakura (and petting Choco at the end) and she taught us so much! It was one of our favorite activities
