Sakura-san was very welcoming and patient. She went over the cultural significance and history of the food we would make before we started which added nice context. Throughout she took lots of pictures and videos that she sent to me. Everything turned out well and I even took the recipes home! She is also a Japanese teacher so she helped me practice :)
A Fun (and Yummy) Family Experience

My husband and 6 year old daughter had the best time with Sakura San learning more about the Japanese culture and making mochi/daifuku. The location is easily accessible and just a short walk from the train in a beautiful neighborhood. Sakura San was so patient with our daughter who absolutely loved the class. We made four delicious treats and were able to take them back with us so we could enjoy them later although our 6 year old ate hers up pretty quickly:) Have an even greater appreciation for the artistry behind Japanese sweets and so grateful to have had Sakura San as our teacher. A great experience and would highly recommend this class!
