What To Expect
All ingredients and supplies, an apron and a towel will be provided for you. Your class will be a small group (limited to a maximum of 8 people), so you will never be a bystander. Wagyu is a world-famous word nowadays. “Wa” means Japan(ese), and “Gyu” means beef. During this class, you will make use of various methods to complete your full-course lunch, from appetizers to dessert. The instructors are all friendly, English-speaking locals who are happy to assist you. They will share some tips and stories of each recipe and sometimes share some secret techniques, too. This cooking class will give you a homey atmosphere to cook in. As Japanese always start with “Dashi”-making, each class will begin with the making of "Dashi," the fundamental soup stock of Japanese cooking. Your instructor will also explain about some of the typical Japanese seasonings which are frequently used. Then, you will prepare 7 dishes learning classic and modern recipes, ways to present food, elaborate cuttings and unique Japanese ingredients. As a main dish, you cook some beautiful, tender Wagyu beef. After all of the cooking is finished, finally, it will be time to say 'Itadakimasu!'

5.00This cooking class allowed me to discover a bunch of side dishes that I had never heard of before, as well as learn about some of the fundamental ingredients for Japanese cooking. Most of the ingredient prep has already been done so that the time can be spent on the more interesting parts of the cooking. No advanced cooking skills are needed. Full recipes are provided to take home. The instructors are cheerful, fluent in English, and helpfully answered many of our questions about Japanese cooking.
What a pleasant experience ending in a delicious meal that we created ourselves with the guidance of Megumi.

5.00This was one of the best cookery classes we have been to but it is a difficult building to locate. Aya and Hidemi were excellent instructors. The food we cooked was amazing - I couldn't believe that we cooked so much in such a short space of time. I would highly recommend this cookery class for anyone visiting Tokyo who has an interest in Japanese cuisine.
Worthwhile

5.00We made 8 dishes, starting with dashi. Then we used the dashi in almost every other dish we made. This is real cooking and it’s exactly what I wanted. Thank you to the instructors for making it fun and relaxed. The studio was spotlessly clean and inviting and comfortable. I felt at home. And the meal was delicious. It was perhaps my favorite activity in Tokyo. Highly recommend!
Excellent experience with...
