Japanese home cooking class
Had a wonderful Japanese home cooking experience with Hisako and Naoko. They gave us detailed instruction on each recipe and meal, were very kind helping my children follow along. They were also very informative giving us tips on sightseeing and shopping. Was happy that we were able to select our own menu and the food was delicious. I was even inspired to buy a pan for rolled eggs to bring back with me home. I would definitely recommend this experience, it was great intimate class for my family of 5, my kids are 11,13 and 17.

An amazing cooking session
This was an amazing experience, from booking to finish a complete session. The class was awesome, the ladies were fantastic and patient teachers. Our group of five (you wouldn’t want any more than 5) had a great time and learnt some new skills…
Highly recommend this experience as you won’t be disappointed, also, don’t eat much before you go, you cook a very generous lunch!

Amazing Experience!!
We booked this experience because we love Japanese food and wanted to learn how to make it ourselves, and it easily became the highlight of our trip! Hisako and Naoko were extremely kind and welcoming and offered us dozens of Japanese home cooking tips that we would have never found out by just following recipes online! We had so much fun cooking and constructing bento boxes and will absolutely use everything we learned in the future. If you are in Osaka and love food/cooking, we cannot recommend this experience enough!

Intimate cooking class in a Japanese home
My partner and I had a wonderful time learning Japanese home cooking with Hisako and Naoko. The two hosts were incredibly friendly, warm and kind, making the experience truly enjoyable.
We chose the ginger pork meal with miso soup, tamagoyaki and onigiri, which was all delicious. The recipes were provided in both English and Japanese, so we can recreate the dishes at home. We also had a lot of fun making the dessert.
We highly recommend this class to anyone looking to learn Japanese cooking.

We made the stew with rice balls, miso soup and omelette. We gladly accepted the option to make dessert in addition (mochiart with ice cream). It was a great experience !!!

This class was so much fun! Naoko and Hisako were so sweet and they taught us how to make authentic Japanese food, and we put together bento boxes! We got to select a bento box and chopsticks to keep! I will go back again!

Hisako and Naoka were...
Hisako and Naoka were very good teachers! They were knowledgeable, patient, and great at breaking down the cooking into very easy steps. They also print out the recipes and instructions for you to take home. They also provided us with great recommendations for other local attractions. I highly recommend taking a class with them!

Simple and very effective cooking techniques
The workshop was great! I learned how to make all the things I wanted, they also agreed to change the menu a bit for me. Since the workshop I cooked some of the dishes for friends, and I'm making miso soup almost every day!
The cooking techniques are simple and very effective, making it easy to cook great Japanese food.
The two instructors were friendly and helpful.
Thank you for a great cooking experience!
