Reviews
First he let us pick what we would like to cook, then we went shopping at local supermarket. Then back to his cooking school, where we made three different dishes, learning many helpful tips for future Japanese cooking at home. Great afternoon. Huge amount of food. Would highly recommend.
My husband and I really enjoyed our experience. Our teacher was wonderful, and carefully taught as all components of each dish. He really was a wonderful teacher and went above and beyond, making sure we got photos during. Highly recommend!
