Description
Welcome to Kaori’s kitchen! You can make sushi with Kaori in her beautiful kitchen at home. This hideaway is located in a back alley in the center of Kyoto. She is an experienced instructor who has been holding cooking classes for over 15 years, rather than a temporary instructor hired part-time. You will learn: ・ how to cook authentic Japanese dishes in English ・ Japanese table manners ・ the culture of Japanese cuisine ・ and much more! Japanese cooking class Roujiya gives you more than just cooking lessons. Kaori would like to show Japanese cultures and customs as well. In addition if you know table manners even a little, you can feel much more relaxed in Japanese restaurants! She'll be happy to assist you and give some hints and information about variations of the recipes using different ingredients when you return home. You will be treated as if you were invited to her home. Why not join her class? It's fun and tasty! A real cultural experience!

Excellent experience, authentic. The owner is adorable and very pedagogical. The setting is very nice. The making of sushi and daishi is explained step by step.
We had a wonderful time learning to make sushi from our host. Extremely clean and our dish we made came out pretty well. We have a new found respect for sushi chefs.
Local full of tourists with zero wait. Friendly and fast staff and clothing coordinated with the place. Food at the top. I absolutely recommend it 👏
We stayed at the home of the lovely and pleasant Kaudi who taught us about dashi soup and how to make different types of sushi for a wonderful two hours which was one of the highlights of our visit to Japan.
Very friendly, educational, fun to make sushi and eat elf, relatively little done by yourself, could be a bit more active
Great experience! Loved that Ai met us at the restaurant and walked us to the kitchen. Ai was delightful and well organized. Explained the culture / history behind the food. She made making the multiple dishes so much fun. Best part..... the final products were delicious! Would recommend.
Knew nothing about making sushi went started this experience, left knowing how to make it!!! Great host who talked you through the stages and gave recipes to take away so you could give it a go. Great fun, lots of laughs, highly recommend
Excellent insight into sushi making and other skills. Really friendly teacher with excellent English. Lovely clean environment
Incredible experience where we learned so much! This took place in a cute Japanese house which made the experience feel authentic. The instructions and explanations the teacher gave were clear and easy to understand. The way she explained how to make sushi rice, maki sushi, and temari sushi (sushi in the shape of a ball) allowed us to create delicious sushi ourselves easily! We also learned about dashi soup stock, pickled ginger, and umami. If you’re interested not only in sushi but Japanese cuisine, this is the class for you!
Thank you so much for your kind review! I’m so happy to hear that you had such an enjoyable and educational experience. It was a pleasure to guide you through the steps of making sushi, dashi, and other Japanese delicacies. I’m glad the explanations were clear and helped you create delicious sushi with ease! Your enthusiasm for learning about Japanese cuisine truly made the class special, and I hope to see you again for more culinary adventures in the future! Warm regards, Kaori
The class instructor was thorough and wonderfully informative about etiquette and the use of ingredients. There were adults to younger children in the group and everyone was able to follow instructions, leaving the class with full stomachs. Thank you for a wonderful time!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m so happy to hear that everyone, from adults to younger children, was able to follow along and enjoy the class.

I truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back again soon. Warm regards, Kaori
