Vegetarian Cooking Classes

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!

Rina war toll-wir haben viel gelernt und hatten sehr gutes Essen!

Great experience, loved it

Fumi was incredibly nice. Everything was extremely clean, neat and organized. The food was delicious and the cooking process was fun and easy. Recipes are provided at the end. Highly recommended!

This was one of the coolest experiences I have ever had! I happened to meet the owner on Threads while posting about Japan, and learned she had a Ramen experience that took place at both her brother’s 3rd generation ramen factory and her house for dinner. We got to try their grandpa’s original ramen after flattening it and cutting it ourselves, as well as try salad, gyoza, and pork ramen soup that were all their mother’s and grand mother’s recipes. She even took care to make sure my mom’s shellfish allergy wasn’t an issue! We spent 5 hours with this kind family, had amazing and deep conversations about cultural similarities and differences, and even got to meet the family’s children, neighbor, and dogs! It was such a soulful experience and I cannot recommend enough. Might be the best experience I’ve ever had in Japan!

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!

Rina did a wonderful job working with more college students from the same organization, making the cooking lesson fresh while making sure the different sessions had an excellent core experience!

Rina was an excellent teacher: patient, knowledgeable, and very engaging! We had a great time!

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 !
