Kyoto 蛋奶素选择 和果子 美食体验

Yoshiko was a great guide. We did so much in the short time we had together. She was so nice and eager to share the history of Uji and matcha with us.

Our friend group did this cooking class together on our first trip to Japan and the ladies were both so sweet and helpful. Everything we learned to make was much easier than expected and the printed instructions are so easy for us to follow at home for a delicious traditional meal.

Our group had so much fun with Yuka and her associates. All of the prep work was done ahead of time so that we were ready to go when we got there. She took care to make sure it was a positive experience for everyone. While the food was beautiful, it seemed possible to prepare it in a home kitchen as long as you have access to the ingredients. We communicated easily in English. You do a lot of forming the final products, but not as much of the actual cooking, so it is a little less hands on than some classes I have been to in the past. However, I don't think it would be possible to make so many dishes in just 2.5 hours otherwise. Yuka does send a Google Maps address ahead of time. It is the correct one as a sort of demonstration kitchen of the restaurant. It is not, however, the actual restaurant, so don't get confused and go to the wrong place.

We had a wonderful time, thank you!

This class was great fun for our family (2 adults & 2 teenage boys). Yasue was very helpfu and her English was great. Would definitely recommend this as an activity.

Superb experience, Yasue had prepared everything in advance, she gave us clear instructions and helped make this class fun and interactive - my children loved it and it was a very unique experience, I highly recommend it!

We really enjoyed learning how to make nerikiri wagashi from Yasue, who is a skilled and knowledgeable teacher. The class was a highlight of our trip to Kyoto, and we look forward to returning to learn more wagashi designs in the future!

Was a great experience! Highly recommend for anyone interested to learn about mochi sweets🙂

We thoroughly enjoyed our wagashi cooking class. It was a highlight of our trip to Kyoto. Yasue was a lovely and patient instructor. Highly recommended.

Definitely a highlight of our trip. The instructor was extremely nice and helpful and made our day. The class itself was super fun and the wagashi was delicious!!!

Thank you to our gracious, friendly, and informative guide Ayaka! We wandered around Uji on foot (so beautiful) and ate a green tea themed meal (delicious) then visited a temple and shrine. We had matcha ice cream (hojicha was my favorite) and then we had an informal matcha tea ceremony. We learned a lot of new information in just three hours!

Hiroe was brilliant. Thanks to her our group of grandma, mother, and daughter we got to learn a lot about Japanese culture and Matcha. It was a wonderful day walking around the really beautiful Uji area. We ate buckwheat noodles with matcha, made matcha tea and drink it, and had roasted green tea ice cream. Beautiful area and the shrine was so amazing. Hiroe was so knowledgeable about the area and she did a great job explaining in English. An absolutely wonderful day where we got to do things with Hiroe we never would have been able to understand how to do ourselves.
