A must-do experience in Tokyo - This was an amazing cooking class and experience. Our hosts were wonderful. We really enjoyed trying out so many different foods, and learning lots of useful tips we could take home with us. If you're considering any cooking classes, you should really pick this one.

A wonderful and special workshop, we enjoyed it very much. - Alice was wonderful, attentive, patient, knowledgeable, and created a pleasant atmosphere. The drinks and music, along with the food preparation, created a happy atmosphere the entire evening. It would be great if during the supermarket tour we could have received more explanations about popular items worth buying.
