This was such a great class for people who want to appreciate all of the time, work, and love that goes into ramen. We felt like real chefs for the hours we were in our experience, and were taught valuable techniques and recipes that I will be putting to work back home. The instructors were great — Andy, Jay, Leo, and especially Katrina, who was so sweet to us, and Eric, who did most of the instruction with our group and was a wonderful teacher. They were all warm, welcoming people who were happy to answer questions and work with their students to make delicious food. We loved the class and I highly recommend!

My husband and I did this cooking class on our wedding anniversary and it was awesome! The instructors (Eric, Jay, and Leo) were so fun and made the class entertaining. They kept everyone busy with different tasks and it was cool seeing everything come together. This was some of the best ramen we have ever had and some of our favorite food we had on our two-week trip to Japan. Definitely an unforgettable experience!

It was fun and yes you are included into almost every part of the ramen making. That makes it more interesting anf you feel like you actually made it. Love every second of it and the end result was tasty.

Outstanding!. An intense cooking and learning experience. You spend a solid 4hrs learning and participating in all the steps to make an excellent ramen dish. Covers from making broths, complements and noodles. A really fun time with a highly professional group. Totally recommend.

This was one of the best experiences I have had while traveling to Japan. I loved this activity from the teachers/chefs helping us to the atmosphere and the food, it was incredible. I like that I got to learn a new skill set, have a good time, and then eat some amazing ramen and gyoza. If you are traveling to Japan and have the time, you need to do this. They send you home with the recipes as well. It’s been fun taking a little bit of knowledge of Japanese cuisine home with me! :)
