日本 清真 日本茶 料理教室

Delicious food in a warm and welcoming home. The host, Yuka, was so kind and shared her passion and love of cooking in every dish. Highly recommend! And don’t forget to say high to their small bird, Peter!

Lovely and educational Experience I booked the Vegan Shojin Ryori Buddhist Cuisine Cooking Class because I was interested in something different than Sushi, Ramen or Gyoza which many people offer in Tokyo. I am very glad I did because I could spent a few hours with Yuka who is an excellent host and teacher! I learned quite a lot about Shojin Ryori as we cooked a handful of dishes together. Especially the Sesame Tofu is something I can now do with confidence at home! As I also booked the trip to the supermarket with Yuka she could show me all the ingredients needed for the dishes we did prepare together. Not to mention I brought many of those home with me! I also would like to mention that Yuka’s English is very good and I quite enjoyed spending the time with her as she can teach you a lot and has many stories to tell. Also do not be afraid that the cooking course is a bit further away from the City center. I quite enjoyed walking around in Setagaya which is quite cozy compared to busy Shibuya, Shinjuk etc. All in all a lovely and educational experience which also was very authentic as we did cook in Yukas cozy home kitchen!

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

I had a very enjoyable and educational cooking class at Yuka's home. Everything was explained well, including the background of Shojin Ryori. The visit to the supermarket afterwards was also a real added bonus. Thank you, Yuka, for the wonderful day in your kitchen.

Learning to cook was the objective, Miss Yamakasi made it an unforgettable experience. Connecting and bonding through food and the preparation thereof was everything I'd hoped for. Would happily recommend!

Yuka's class was fantastic! She provided cultural context on shojin ryori traditions which helped bring special meaning to our cooking. I got SO many helpful, practical tips for cooking each element of the meal that I'm so excited to replicate at home. I'm definitely planning on taking more of her classes when I return to Japan in the future.

I had an incredible time learning authentic Nagoya home cooking! Unlike other classes where you just watch and eat, this was completely hands-on, which made a huge difference. Yuko-san and her family were so welcoming that the evening felt more like a warm family gathering than a formal lesson. If you want to experience the true heart of Nagoya’s food culture beyond just sitting in a restaurant, this is the perfect way to do it. I will definitely be making that tebasaki when I get back home!

We had such an exceptional experience! A sincere thank you to our host, Kaoru, who thought through every detail end-to-end to ensure a seamless experience. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it - not only the fantastic mochi lesson, but most importantly her company and the time she took to explain mochi's significance in the Japanese culture. This made such a great memory for our trip that our family will cherish for a lifetime. We will book another lesson with Kaoru the next time we are in Tokyo for sure. Thank you again! ❤️

楽しい授業です。料理が好きな方におすすめです。

We had the best time making onigiris, must have experience!

It was such a great experience getting to meet Yuka-san and learn how to make several different Shojin Ryori dishes. She is a fabulous teacher and the food we made together was absolute delicious. I only hope that I can make several of these dishes by myself and have them taste as delicious as what we made together. If you have any interest in learning to make Japanese vegan/plant based dishes, then I would suggest you definitely take this class from her.

We had a great morning making some delicious onigiri and Japanese omelette and learning all about Japanese cooking traditions and getting tips on how we can recreate at home!
