5.00My partner and I booked this experience, and it was one of our favorite memories!! We loved the intimate setting, learning how to make takoyaki, and trying so many delicious sakis while being able to dial in on our specific preferences! Momo was so sweet and very knowledgeable about sake! It was very easy to talk to her, and we left feeling very confident about takoyaki! I highly recommend!! Don't think twice!

We loved learning how to cook takoyaki, as well as discovering how sake is made and how to understand the different flavor profiles and production methods. Everything about this experience was fantastic. We’ll definitely recommend it to anyone we know visiting Osaka!

5.00Really nice to sit down and talk to Momo — it felt like a genuine and relaxing conversation and experience. The sake part was really in depth and made me learn a lot. The tasting also covered which ones were sweet and the alcohol percentage which is really cool to know before choosing. The cooking was great because Momo was super helpful and explained everything really well. Overall, even if you’re a terrible cook like me (or even a fussy eater) and barely drink (like me!), this experience is still really really good to do for a relaxing and casual night!
Do it!

5.00A wonderful experience cooking the Osaka speciality Takoyaki, and learning about sake - the different brewing methods, the wide range of flavours, and the traditional spirituality associated with drinking sake. Momo has a love of sake, and is an expert in all things sake. The experience was incredibly interesting, fun, and educational. And the Takoyaki was deliciois!
The highlight of our stay in Osaka

5.00Our takoyaki and sake experience was an absolute highlight of our trip to Osaka. Momo went out of her way to provide gluten-free takoyaki ingredients (we let her know in advance), and it was delicious. Momo was incredibly knowledgeable about sake, too. Thanks for a fantastic experience, Momo!
