You'll learn from international chefs, together we'll explore the art of crafting mouth-watering ramen from scratch in the lovely ambiance of a upscale restaurant in Meguro, Tokyo. The best part? You'll receive a comprehensive recipe booklet, unveiling the secrets behind restaurant-quality ramen. We would also send you photos that capture the pipping hot memories as well as a secret souvenir. Oh, and don't worry about language barriers – our staff is bilingual in both Japanese and English, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable learning experience for everyone! This class usually takes about 4 hours, so get ready for a lot of learning about ramen and doing a lot of cooking! We don't offer a Vegetarian option at this moment in time.

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!
