Osaka 課程

A magical moment shared with Katsuji-san and his wife. He took the time—especially with the children—to explain the techniques for making sushi, and he even prepared a dish for us that he used to serve in his restaurants. I highly recommend this kind of experience. Thanks again!

Hands down, one of the BEST experiences I’ve had in Japan so far! Our hosts were incredibly warm, welcoming, and kind, making us feel right at home. We started with a beautiful traditional Japanese tea ceremony, followed by making all FOUR types of ramen ourselves! It was such a fun and memorable hands-on experience. They even surprised us with freshly prepared sushi! The sweetest part was the ending: our host personally wrote each of our names in Japanese on beautiful postcards for us to take home. Such a thoughtful keepsake! You can truly feel their passion for Japanese culture and genuine hospitality. I enjoyed every moment and wholeheartedly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Osaka. Thank you for giving us such a beautiful memory. Definitely a highlight of my Japan trip!

The Best Cultural Experience in Osaka!Taking Katsuji’s ramen class was such a special experience! He welcomed my friend Rachel and me into his home with so much warmth and immediately made us feel comfortable. He guided us through making shoyu, miso, tonkotsu, and curry ramen. Every variety was delicious, and getting to prepare and taste the different styles made the experience even more enjoyable. What made the class especially memorable was Katsuji himself. He shared little glimpses of his life and made us feel completely at home. Despite the language barrier, we connected so easily that it felt like spending time with a new friend. He also wrote each of us a beautiful personalized Japanese note with our names and a sweet message, which I’ll treasure. I left with a full stomach and wonderful memories. I would happily visit Katsuji again and take another cooking class next time I’m in the area!

An absolute 10/10 experience! The Japanese cooking class was incredible, the food was delicious, and the hosts gave us such a warm and pleasant welcome. Highly recommended!

Super fun class. Very hands on experience and the instructors were very fun. They made the experience enjoyable and went through the process step by step. And the ramen and gyoza were both really good. All four of us in our party left very full. Definitely recommend this class.

Great experience

This experience was made super special by these wonderful and open-minded hosts! The chef is a very patient teacher, bringing you closer to the Japanese cuisine in a funny and heartfelt way. His wife is incredibly kind and forthcoming as well. We had the feeling we were cooking with our dear friends. The food was exceptionally delicious - one could feel the experience of the chef in every single bite. The beautiful notes we received when leaving will forever remind us of this incredible evening. It was an honor to be welcomed in their home! 10/10 would do it again immediately, just to be with such friendly people again. P.S.: We will be back for the massage chair anyways.

Risa and Keigo were fantastic. They made it for a fun and informative experience. Highly recommend this class

I went with my 16 year-old daughte. A wonderful place. Highly recommended I would do it again. The food and the experience was excellent, but the host were the best part of the experience . Engaging.

Amazing workshop with Yoko-san! She is passionate about miso and Japanese cuisine and shares it beautifully. Recommended for an authentic experience in Osaka!

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!

Our teacher and translator were fun and encouraging as they taught us how to make gluten free takoyaki and okonomiyaki. They prepped all the ingredients, which were fresh and high quality. All the kitchen equipment were very nice and the facilities were excellent. If you have the chance, do take this class. It’s fun and rewarding to learn how to make these two delicious street food with gluten free ingredients.
