Overview

【Shopping at local supermarkets with a local guide and learn how to choose good ingredients】

This cooking class starts with a visit to a local supermarket frequented by Japanese locals. Enjoy shopping, while learning about the distinct characteristics of Japanese supermarkets and how locals choose their ingredients, guided by a local expert. After gathering our ingredients, we will head to the cooking class apartments to begin the culinary experience.

【Enjoy cooking Japanese traditional foods such as sushi roll, miso soup, egg roll, and egg plant with the guide's explanation of Japanese food culture and its wisdom】

Develop traditional home-style cooking skills, including precise knife techniques and crafting dashimaki tamago. Receive a recipe for Japanese dishes, perfect for hosting a home party back in your own country. Ask questions during the class for a personalized cooking experience tailored to your needs.

Also you can try 4 kinds of Sake paring with Japanese dishes!

Through this tour, We aim to impart my expertise and passion for Japanese cooking to a broader audience, hoping many will partake in this culinary adventure and discover the exquisite flavors of Japanese cuisine.

Our journey begins not just with cooking but also with a visit to a local supermarket. Japanese supermarkets are a treasure trove, offering an extensive range of meats, fish, vegetables, and an array of unique seasonings. We are eager to share my insights on selecting the freshest ingredients, a skill honed through daily practice.

Once we've gathered our ingredients, we'll transition to a professional kitchen studio to embark on our cooking session. Under guided instruction, you'll master the techniques of Japanese home-style cooking, from wielding a Japanese knife with precision to preparing foundational elements like dashi for miso soup and crafting sushi rice seasoned with vinegar. Beyond sushi, you'll delve into creating authentic dishes such as miso soup, eggplant dengaku, and the delightful dashimaki tamago (rolled egg).

Upon completing the cooking experience, participants will receive recipes!
Kids Playroom is available for your child to enjoy as well!

    We came from Italy with the desire to learn more about Japanese food and culture. It was a great experience we strongly suggest to do. The guy that leads the class was very kind and prepared.

    The class was amazing - Taka is great and gave us lots of explanations, context and tips that we will bring home. Had a really fun time learning how to shop for the right ingredients, learning how to cook and enjoying the fruit of our labor.
