What's unique about this experience is that by learning the differences between the various ramen (noodles, broth, etc.) across Japan, you can also use it as a ramen guide when traveling around Japan. Japanese people are particular about everything and turn it into a unique Japanese food culture. While making ramen and gyoza together, you can learn about the diversity of the culture. This time, we will make miso ramen with broth made from "kelp" and "chicken" or "scallops," which are the basic ingredients of Japanese broth. For vegans, we will make miso ramen with broth made from "kelp" and "vegetables." In addition, the Japanese-style house will allow various travel groups, from groups of adults to families with children, to enjoy themselves in a relaxed atmosphere.

This is a fun experience. Shoji is a lovely man and the food we made was excellent. This is not a complicated class and there's no chopping involved. The trickiest part is assembling the gyoza but we got the hang of it pretty quickly. They accommodated my shellfish allergy and the miso ramen we made (with chicken broth) was excellent.
Great class on history and the making of Ramen and Goyza. The instructor, chef was very good at explaining the entire process. Gave a great history about both dishes, their creation and how to prepare them. It was very clear and the setting was very very good. Highly recommended worth the effort to get there and money spent.
Thank you for your wonderful comments and high ratings. I’d be happy if this became one of your fond memories from your trip to Japan. Although, I would’ve been even happier if you’d mentioned that you laughed a lot… Just kidding. Please be sure to give it a try when you get home. You’re welcome to send me photos, but just the best one will do.
We really enjoyed this cooking experience, our guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. Shoji is an amazing cook! The gyoza and ramen were delicious!
I'm incredibly happy to receive such generous praise. Please do try making it at home!
We were two families with three kids, 9, 10 and 11 all from Australia. One vegetarian in our group. They had an English translator but the instructor also spoke some English. The class was fun, easy and not complicated. We had lots to eat and the recipe is sent to you. We did Gyoza and Ramen making. I highly recommend this class.
Coincidentally, the other group that day was also from Australia, and they were a wonderful group. I hope this peaceful world, filled with such wonderful coincidences, continues. It was a very enjoyable day for me too. I'm glad if you enjoyed it. Please try making dumplings or ramen when you get home. Many guests send me photos of their homemade versions, but just the best one is fine!
We had an amazing experience! The food was delicious and the hosts were so lovely. It was an amazing way to enjoy Japanese food (and learn more about it through a brief lesson) and drink some delicious sake. Visiting Tokyo can be overwhelming, but this experience helped to relax us during our trip.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your experience at Kujo Tokyo. Please do try making ramen and gyoza when you get home! However, when you send me photos, please only send the best one, as I asked you to at the end of the experience. I'd be overwhelmed if you sent me a hundred!
So enjoyed this experience. The guides were amazing and explained everything so clearly and were so happy we now know how to make proper gyoza and ramen when we get home! We’d booked to do the class a few days earlier but my daughter couldn’t attend as she was unwell, luckily our teachers suggested that we both come back a few days later so she could take part and I’m so grateful they did. Thank you so much 😊
I'm so glad your daughter is feeling better and was able to join us. And she even got some lovely nail art done. Please be sure to send us a photo if you try making it at home. I'd also love to hear what the family members who couldn't make it this time thought...
Learned &Loved everything about this cooking class. Very interesting on how to prepare the different food dishes
Thank you for your wonderful comments and high rating. I'm glad it became a good memory of your trip to Japan. Please try making it at home too. However, please send only the best photo. Even though I receive many photos, I can't throw them away, and my computer's storage is getting full of everyone's pictures.
The teachers were great! We did 3 different types of gyoza and made miso ramen. The history lesson in the beginning was also very educational.
Some people occasionally say the lessons are too long, but I'm glad if you enjoyed them. Please try making them at home!
Excellent experience and food quality from knowledgeable local people. To be recommended to learn and enjoy
Thank you so much for your wonderful comments and rating. Since it hasn't been long since the experience, I hope you won't look back once you get home and feel you praised it too highly. I really hope you try making it at home, too.
My family loved this experience. We learned a lot and the food was delicious. We had a vegetarian and a shellfish allergy in the group and they accommodated both very very well.
There are an increasing number of families that include both vegetarians and people with shellfish allergies. As I mentioned in the pre-experience workshop, although there are few vegetarians in Japan because people grow up drinking soup made with bonito flakes from infancy, it hasn’t even been 200 years since they started eating meat. When you think about it that way, it’s just like your family. I’m glad you enjoyed it.
