Outstanding and Delicious Family Activity - My family (wife, three teenaged daughters) had a really fun, memorable and tasty experience. We have done cooking classes all over the world, and this one tracks among the best. Shafi, our guide, was terrific. So lively and personable, he had fascinating stories about every item we saw in the local market. I didn’t think it was possible to make a supermarket tour both educational and fun, but Shafi did just that. He was funny, his English was perfect, And he kept all of us engaged. The cooking experience was also excellent. The studio was clean And modern. And Hiroko, our instructor, was kind and patient. Most importantly, the ramen we made was delicious. Will definitely be taking the recipe and other lessons we learned back home with us. Highly recommend.

Fun cooking class and tour! - My wife and I had a great time! We really enjoyed the whole experience, especially because this class has the Akihabara tour and grocery store visit which other cooking classes don't have. It was really cool going to a local grocery store and picking out ramen-making ingredients for us to take back home in the USA. The hosts were really friendly and informative, their English was great, and it was really cool going through the class and learning how to make ramen. It felt like they took care of the less interesting parts of cooking so the class was just the fun parts of making ramen. We would definitely recommend the class to anyone else!

Amazing ramen cooking experience! - My husband and I really enjoyed our ramen making class with Saori! It is a unique experience because you get a short tour of Akihibara and a local supermarket before learning how to cook the ramen. The supermarket was great to walk through and see all the seasonal items that go into Japanese cuisine. We are from a city that doesn’t have many ramen restaurants and it was a great introduction to the different styles of ramen - I discovered I love pork belly ramen! I would recommend anyone to take this class if you are looking for an approachable guide to learn how to make ramen at home and if you’re wanting a local’s perspective of the area! Thank you again Saori for the wonderful experience!

An excellent experience. Highly recommended. - Excellent experience from beginning to end. We were met at the station and given a tour of the area and then sent to the local market to view the types of ingredients needed to make ramen. We then headed to a modern kitchen for our lesson. The chef gave excellent instructions for the cooking lesson and the food was delicious. We all had a fun experience. We would highly recommend this cooking class. Our guide, known as ‘Q’ was lovely and very knowledgeable. Thank you for helping us to make a wonderful memory from our visit to Tokyo.

Ramen: from Japan to home - An adorable companion who explained the neighborhood and introduced us to Tokyo culture. An incredible cooking experience with a professional who puts herself at our level and brings us all the keys to be able to cook at home afterwards. The place is welcoming and well equipped.

Ramen-making experience - We had a wonderful time with Shati and Rowena in Akihabara and in the cooking studio. The tour gives a nice insight into the district and there are also a few insider tips. And the cooking of the ramen was then led by Rowena and performed very well. You were taken well by the hand so that even when pasta itself can do and nothing can go wrong with the broth. Taste 10/10 and I can only recommend.
