My ramen-making experience at Ramen Dojo was one of those special experiences that I will remember long after leaving Japan. Sensei Yoku was absolutely wonderful—patient, welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about sharing the art of making ramen. There is something incredibly rewarding about learning the process step by step, working with your own hands, and then sitting down to enjoy a bowl of ramen that you actually created yourself. What made the experience especially memorable was Sensei Yoku. He made the class feel personal rather than simply another tourist activity, and I left with a much greater appreciation for the skill, tradition, and care that goes into something as seemingly simple as a bowl of ramen. I’ve taken several hands-on classes during my travels, and these are often the experiences I treasure the most because they allow you to connect with the people and culture in a completely different way. Ramen Dojo was exactly that kind of experience. Thank you, Sensei Yoku, for sharing your knowledge, your patience, and a little piece of Japanese culture with me. An absolutely fantastic experience and an easy five stars!

Much harder than I thought it would be. Instructors were super kind and helpful. I had lots of fun. I just wish that we had more practice turns.

Ive decided to sign up for my son (24) and I (55) to take this. I was afraid it was too childlish but we both ended up enjoying so much. It was easy enough but took some challenges that made us excited to work in fake food making! I was amazed how people came up with all technique and process to make wax food so real. We made a great memory and something to laugh about all evening. We have to stay active and young, to play more. The best part is this is something everyone can do, 5 yrs to 90yrs, I think its the best easy and fun activity! I hope people try this.

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

The miso experience was so fun and hands on! I learned various interesting facts about miso that I never knew before. Getting my hands dirty and knowing that it will be my original miso makes me more excited to taste the miso after it is fully fermented. The staff were so easy to talk to and I had many amazing conversations with them and learned so much about their store's concept and their love for their products. Being able to taste various miso also broadened my taste buds and made me realize that there are much more complex flavors and varieties of miso that I should try in the future. I was also able to try different flavors of amazake, a sweet fermented rice drink, which I didn't know existed. I knew of the original flavor, but I never thought adding different flavors would make amazake more versatile. The store is quite small, but it felt welcoming and warm both outside and inside. It made anyone who stepped inside feel like they were in a small homey welcoming atmosphere where they could relax and enjoy their time. Everything about the store and the experience was amazing. Getting there was easy, and finding it was straightforward. If I am ever back in that area, I would definitely return to try more of their products.

So much fun! Many thanks to Yuichi for a warm and wonderful experience. We made two parfaits, two ramen and a mini tart keychain. Would highly recommend to anyone whose kids are tired of looking at temples and castles.

highly recommend for those who want to have hands on experience in making food samples. the shop owner is super patient and informative about each steps and result is amazing. They explain well in English

Beautiful experience. Kotomi Tezuka led our group through the process in thoughtful, patient way that made our experience very pleasant. Would love to do this again.

I wanted to draw as well as my coach, but it was difficult because I'm a beginner! But I enjoyed it. It's fun to draw freely!

This experience takes place in the original restaurant from Edo times that is 15 generations old! You become a part of history and here, they treat you like family! The owner, who was also our host, greeted us and explained to us the history behind the restaurant and his family. We were his first foreign guests and he admitted he was excited and a little bit nervous. It was comforting to know we weren't alone in feeling that way which immediately put our nerves at ease. We were then introduced to our instructor, Meguka (I could be wrong about the spelling). She spoke a little english and taught the class primarily in english. She was patient, kind and attentive. The dishes that were served during the experience were generous. Everything was sourced locally and each dish was made from some form of the yam (tororo) which was what the experience was centered around. Everything was delicious and nothing like we've ever eaten before. We were served hot, green tea with our meal and at the end, they served ice cream that is handmade in the restaurant. I chose the miso flavor and it was exquisite! You will not leave this experience hungry. We left with our bellies and hearts full! We loved it and will definitely be booking more experiences like this next time we go back to Japan.

This is such a great family experience! It’s a very cool and unique souvenir that you make yourself. The staff is so friendly and we really enjoyed it!

This was such a fun experience and was a highlight of our trip! Yuichi taught us all about the history of fake food making and it was really interesting. He walked us through the whole process and now we have a really cool souvenir that sits on a shelf in our living room! I can't speak highly enough of Yuichi. Not only was he an absolute delight and did a great job communicating everything to us in English, he was so kind and fun. He made us laugh, we had a great time, and he even sketched us a map telling us where to go for lunch. I cannot recommend this experience highly enough!
