Reviews
What a one-of-a-kind experience! Our instructor was an absolute gem — we somehow ended up swapping favorite ramen spots in Tokyo 😅. Every step was explained clearly, and above all, it was just so much fun. Can't recommend this enough
I booked very last minute and got the venue a little late but my instructor was so patient and taught me nicely! Thank you so much for a good time!
My son and I crafted our very own chopsticks from scratch, and the whole thing felt special. The instructors brought so much warmth and humor
The activity was well-organized and enjoyable! We made our own chopsticks, and it was both fun and memorable for all of us.
Very nice place and friendly staffs. Everything went so smooth even though it was crowded.
That was one of the most unique experiences I've ever had!
It was fun and our instructor was so nice as well!
Thank so much for your help Dewi!
