Tokyo 日式炸鸡 料理教室(7)

We had a fantastic evening with Matsuko. It was great to cook in a what was an old dorm for Samurai

It was fantastic! Our hosts were warm, knowledgeable, and welcoming. They explained a lot, let us try different things, and shared great tips. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience with a lovely group. Thank you! We’d be happy to come again.

It was amazing, great fun and very inspiring! Masako our host was simply the best!

I had a great time learning how to make bento containing onigiri, karaage, tamagoyaki, along with some vegetables. I have very little experience with cooking, but Yuki-san was very patient and helpful, and made sure that I did most of the work myself so that I could properly learn the process. She explained the recipe for each part of the bento, how and where the recipe can vary between families, and why she makes the choices she does. She clearly has lots of experience and was able to condense it so that I could understand. The kitchen was very large and clean. It can easily hold multiple people at once. All of the ingredients were beautifully prepared ahead of time, along with printed copies of the recipes. After cooking all the food, Yuki-san helped me in preparing and decorating the bento box which I then ate out of to finish the day. The food was very good despite me making it. The flavors were very simple and delicate as Yuki-san explained is common in Japanese food. The food tasted very clean and fresh, even the fried karaage. Yuki-san is clearly very knowledgeable and passionate about cooking and sharing her culture through food. Her English is very good and I was able to clearly understand and communicate with her. Her recipes are also very thoughtful and delicious. She even gave me a small gift of a Japanese-style kitchen towel before I left. I definitely would like to attend another of her classes again in the future, and would highly recommend attending!

I thoroughly enjoyed Masako’s lessons in cooking, and sense of humour! She is very efficient, so I learned a lot in a short time. Thankyou Masako
