Tóquio Aulas de Culinária

Our cooking class with Hide has been great. He made us feel welcome, we had great chats and learned a lot about cooking Ramen and Gyoza. Both were delicious.

So amazing class, very interesting, it’s cooking and culture! Thank you!

This was one of the best activities we did on our Japan trip. Our hosts were so nice and the chef very knowledgeable on ramen making. Their capacity of English was also helpful because none of us spoke Japanese. I kid you not, it was the best bowl of ramen broth we’ve ever eaten… and the gyoza we made was also delicious. They even sent us the recipes to recreate at home. It was a very small, intimate group of people so all our questions were answered. We got to know them and became quick friends. I highly recommend and would take the class again if I ever came back to Tokyo.

Kaoru Sama is a wonderful teacher and is also very sweet. She took us through the history of mochi and the seasonal and festive relevance of it. She was very patient and spent a lot of time to give us hands on experience in making many varieties of mochi, both sweet and savory. Cooking is more about being intuitive than following a recipe, and Kaoru sama teaches you intuitiveness necessary for making mochi. P.S: go for the class on an empty stomach because Kaoru Sama will fill you up with more mochi than you can handle

Kaoru sama took us through the entire history of mochi and also taught us about more varieties than I knew existed. She is very sweet and a great teacher. Cooking isn’t just about a recipe, but intuition. She teaches you what to be intuitive about. I recommend going on an empty stomach because Kaoru sama will give you more mochi than you can handle.

Our cooking class with Masako was one of the most wonderful experiences we have ever had. Fascinating and delicious and she also generously made for us some special calligraphy which we will always treasure. Masako was patient, skilful and very informative, as well as generous-hearted and welcoming. It was a special thrill to learn that her home, where the class was held, used to be a hostel for samurai warriors during the Edo era

Our teachers were really patient with us, they took time to explain each ingredients we used during the cooking class. Thank you very much !

My daughter and I had an enjoyable class with Keiko, learned a lot about making vegan sushi, and had a delicious meal that we very much enjoyed. Keiko was a great tescher who answered lots of our questions about cooking and Japan. One of the big highlights of our trip to Tokyo!

Our hosts were wonderfully generous with their expertise and went above and beyond to have all five of us fully participate and enjoy the class. I learned a lot and had fun too ! Thank you

My wife and I took our cooking class with Yuca earlier this month. We loved it! We were welcomed to Yuca's home. She gave us very clear directions on how to get there. During the class, we learned a lot in the few hours that we were there. Yuca was very patient and clear in answering all of our questions and walking us through each step. The gyoza and ramen were both delicious, and we feel ready to obtain the ingredients we need and try it out at home.

The course was really well done. Our host Kaori taught us a lot about this style of cooking and was very friendly and helpful. We really enjoyed it.

From the first moment, we had a great time with Kurina! She has a huge knowledge around Miso, vegan Cuisine and Fermentation so we learned a lot from her. Also, the lunch she prepared was really amazing and sooo tasty! Would recommend 100%!

Nahoko made our ramen from scratch class so informative and fun! Having the class in her home made the experience so warm and inviting. Everyone's noodles came out great and we all enjoyed our ramen! Thank you Nahoko! Aloha!

Words cannot describe how special the class with Kurina is. We had a truly great time. It felt like visiting a friend rather than taking a mere cooking class. Kurina welcomed us warmly at her home and prepared an incredible lunch for us. After the lunch Kurina taught us how to prepare miso. During the whole time, Kurina shared with us her expertise all around macrobiotic and vegan nutrition and we had great conversations. We felt like we learned so much more than "just" how to make miso. As for the miso souvenir, we took it back to our home country which was not a problem at all and are now waiting for it to be ready to eat. If we have the chance to come to Japan again we would love to visit Kurina again.

This course was so much fun. We got to make 4 Wagashi, the process is extremely detailed however the instructors made it easy to understand and had nice clear instructions so that even someone clumsy like me could make something to be happy with. It is interesting how much you need to concentrate and how quickly the time passed by. The class was finished off with a traditional tea ceremony where we went through the steps together for the ceremony and the reasons for why each action is completed, it was a fascinating bit of knowledge and both instructors were more than happy to fill in more details and talk about the origins of the ceremony. I could not recommend this class enough
