The experience was amazing and the instructor gave us a lot of useful information and history about mochis. The tasting at the end was fun we could see who was the better cook in the family. Everyone should try this activity.
Very nice experience, the guides were very nice and informative about the mochi history in Japanese culture
This was a really fun experience. We enjoyed making the different types of mochi and getting to know the guide. It was a bit far from our hotel in Shibuya but easy enough for our grab cab to find.
What a great class for all ages. My teenage kids had fun learning how to make mochi and taste testing a variety of them.
It was so much fun to make the mochis and learn about them. The instructors were both so sweet and patient.
We had a wonderful time with Kiyoko! My teens and I love mochi, and this class was such a fun and memorable experience! We loved learning about mochi’s history and its role in Japanese holidays, and it was super fun and exciting to make several different kinds, including many we had never seen in the U.S. we got to take great pics for the memory book and will def try doing a mochi making party for our friends when we get home! Kiyoko even showed us what ingredients to buy and where we could get them. Highly recommend!
A wonderful experience. We learned so much about the history of mochi and the meaning behind the different types of mochi as well.
Great experience, easy to find. we enjoyed learning and interacting with Japanese culture in a tasty way.
Great experience with warm and friendly instructors. They even managed to be very patient with my 4 year old. It was so well done and organized. Highly recommend!
Owa was a great teacher and spoke very good English. She made the art of making mochi seem quite easy - great class for beginners. I liked that she taught the philosophy behind wagashi and incorporated real world examples of where mochi is part of Japanese festivals and holidays. The best part was getting to eat a bunch of mochi at the end!
