This is a really fun activity but be prepared to work! The two men teaching the class were knowledgeable fun and entertaining. They provided a tremendous amount of information and kept the 7 of us constantly busy. And the results were delicious!

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! :)

Our family of five had the best time at Baba Ramen! We always do cooking classes on our vacations and this one ranked right up there with the best. Unlike many other classes, they really put you to work. We were doing something for the entire time, in the kitchen with hot pans and oils, breaking chicken bones, rolling out noodles. We really felt like we cooked the meal and it was delicious! Also very personable chefs to help guide us! Highly recommend!
