Authentic cooking experience in Kyoto - Authentic cooking experience at a local izakaya. The chef there spoke Japanese (another host translated) and taught us how to make ramen from scratch, fried rice and gyoza. It was very organized and fun. They paid special attention to people’s dietary needs. The space was a little tight but worked out well for a group of eight. We ate what we cooked for lunch and were stuffed with delicious food! Recipes were also shared. Highly recommend this culturally immersive experience.

Fun, interesting, and yummy! - We had such a a fun time learning how to make Japanese food. Josh was an excellent host - knowledgeable, helpful, and funny. They had enough prepped by the kitchen that our experience was seamless, but left enough for us to do that we really got to see how everything works. Highly recommend this experience!!

Very entertaining cooking workshop - Very nice cooking workshop, with various dishes, of which you get DE recipes. DE explanation comes from DE Japanese chef who is then translated by DE supervisor. Most importantly, the food is also very tasty.

- I would recommend this class! Professional, clean, fun, well prepared, and delicious. My husband didn’t think we’d be eating our own ramen, but he was wrong! And pleasantly surprised at how yummy it was. Thank you for a good memory!
