Great for families

Yuki is a great host! Came with my two kids and their grandma. Everyone enjoyed the class. Everything was very suitable for 10-12 year olds to do. Instructions are clear and we got to see a lot of really cool Japanese kitchenware ! I definitely recommend the class to any family.

authentic intimate fun cooking experience and meal

Lovely intimate learning experience in Yuki's home. She is very knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and speaks English well. We had fun, learnt so much and are looking forward to trying our new skills at home. There was so much food we couldn't finish it all. Best gyoza we have ever eaten! We highly recommend making a booking.

Thank you so much for your lovely review! ✨ It was such a pleasure having you in my home and cooking together. I’m so happy to hear you enjoyed the class and learned new skills to take back home. And hearing that the gyoza were the best you’ve ever eaten truly made my day! 🥟💛 Thank you again for joining my class and for your kind recommendation. I hope you’ll recreate everything at home and enjoy a little taste of Japan again 😊

Ramen/Gyoza class

To get straight to the point, Yuki is a fantastic cooking instructor (also a lovely person) and I would highly recommend her cooking classes to anyone interested in learning to make Japanese cuisine at home! In the ramen/gyoza class we took, Yuki walked us through the elements of the dishes we made and also highlighted what to do for different regional variations. Any questions I had (sometimes before I could ask it) she was able to answer! e.g. the purpose of different ingredients, their alternatives if you can't easily find them outside Japan, how to cook for friends with dietary requirements, etc etc. Quick note: I recommend that you bring your appetite because 1) not only is the food you make so delicious; but 2) there's a lot of it! By the end of the class, my partner and I felt very confident we could easily apply what we had learnt back home and cook for (and impress) ourselves, family and friends. Thanks again Yuki!!

Thank you so much for your incredibly kind and thoughtful review! I’m so happy to hear that both of you enjoyed the ramen and gyoza class and felt confident recreating the dishes at home 😊 It was a pleasure cooking with you and talking about ingredients, substitutions, and different ways to enjoy Japanese cooking. And yes… there’s always a lot of food in my classes! 😄 I truly appreciate your recommendation, and I hope you’ll continue enjoying Japanese home cooking with your family and friends. Thank you again, and I hope to see you both again someday!

Living a dream ✨️

Had an amazing experience. She was patience and was able to adjust to a vegan option on the spot (I forgot to put it in for a family member). The food was amazing. Her teaching style is very auntie-like. I love the dumplings. I have not bought them since she taught me how to make them. And her green beans with the crush sesame seeds was Devine. The ramen 😍 😋 the ramen was everything you could dream of. Talk about living the dream.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m really glad I could accommodate the vegan option and that you enjoyed all the dishes. It makes me so happy to hear you’re making the dumplings at home now! I also appreciate your kind words about my teaching style—I always try to make everyone feel comfortable and at home. It was a pleasure cooking with you, and I’d love to welcome you back anytime 😊

A great experience and greater memory

Learning to make ramen and gyoza is an experience that I’ll carry with me forever from my travels in Japan. Being able to enjoy an authentic bowl of ramen at will will take me back to Japan any time I wish. Yuki’s skill as a teacher, as well as a host is impeccable

Ramen Ready!

The host, Yuki, was amazing. She didn't realize my husband and I don't eat meat and was able to modify each dish. The ramen, green beans, and dumplings were tasty. The time allotted was appropriate, Yuki was engaging and friendly. The atmosphere was inviting. The cost is worth it. She has different recipes, I can't wait to come back
