Passeio pela natureza e aula de culinária em Tóquio

Ein rundum empfehlenswertes Erlebnis! Tomoko nahm uns mit auf einen zauberhaften Spaziergang durch einen Tempel und vermittelte dabei auf spannende und lebendige Weise Hintergrundwissen zu japanischen Traditionen. Sie ist ein unglaublich herzlicher Mensch, der sein Wissen mit viel Freude teilt, sodass man die Gerichte später sogar zu Hause ganz einfach nachkochen kann. Darüber hinaus kennt sie sich hervorragend mit den Sehenswürdigkeiten rund um Tokio aus und gibt wertvolle Tipps. Für das Kochevent hat Tomoko eine warme, einladende und wunderschöne Atmosphäre geschaffen, in der man sich sofort wohlfühlt. Das Essen war super lecker :) Wir können diese Aktivität von Herzen empfehlen. Sie war definitiv eines der Highlights unserer Reise!

10/10 recommend, the food was absolutely amazing! We started the day with a quick visit to a temple and beautiful Japanese garden nearby Tomokitas house. I got lucky and was the only one who booked for the day so I got a private cooking class. Tomokitas explained how to do everything and showed some techniques to easily chop the vegetables. It was very relaxing and interesting to learn how to make traditional Japanese food. She showed me two different folding techniques for the gyozas, along with lots of recipes of the day and some more! If you enjoy cooking or just want to do something social I'd definitely recommend taking Tomokitas cooking class!!

Absolutely loved this experience. I highly recommend for anyone making a trip to Tokyo. Tomokita was such a lovely host, going above and beyond to accommodate us. Her class was extremely informative and easy to follow along. and all of the food was delicious! be sure to come on an empty stomach as you end up eating a 3 course meal, and trust me, you don’t want to leave anything out! And the little gift we got at the end was so special.

We had a wonderful half-day with Tomokita san, which started with a delightful walk through a beautiful valley beside a stream and stopping at a temple. We then began our cooking lesson which was so much fun, in a relaxed environment, and we enjoyed learning more about Japanese food culture. Then we got to enjoy eating what we had made, which was so tasty, and we have the recipes (plus more) to try at home. I will be recommending this experience to anyone I know who is visiting Tokyo. it was lovely getting out of the busyness of the Tokyo streets, into a more tranquil area with trees and the sound of birds.

This visit was the highlight of our Japan Holiday. The host is super friendly and passionate. More importantly she is a trained chef which makes her a great teacher too. we loved spending time with her and made a new friend for life.

We had such a wonderful time and our hostess Tomo was so welcoming and kind. The food she taught us to make was delicious and she even sent us with the recipes. She was very helpful in talking to us about places to visit in town and answered many questions for us. The 4 of us absolutely loved this experience. definitely our favorite in Japan so far!

This activity is simply a must-do, and please trust me that it will be one of the best activities you will do in Japan. Tomoko is very friendly and sweet, and her cooking skills are amazing. Her food was one of the best I have had in Japan, and my picky fiancée said that it was actually the best she had in Japan. The whole experience was very practical, and now we know how to make great gyoza and ramen. She also takes you on a very nice walk. On top of all that, she makes great wine and salad dressing, for which she can provide the recipes!

I had the best time cooking with Tomokita! The dishes were delicious and it was a super hands-on experience. Tomokita is a great chef and teacher. The shrine we went to on our nature walk is the most beautiful one I’ve seen in Tokyo and was a great way to start the day. I would recommend this experience to everyone as you really get to learn a lot.

This was one of the highlights of our trip. Tomoko is such a warm, natural host- it felt like spending the day with a friend who just happens to know everything about Japanese culture. We visited a beautiful temple with cherry blossoms in full bloom, and Tomoko explained the etiquette in a really relaxed, easy way. The sushi-making was so much fun (and delicious!), and everything was served on stunning tableware. Her homemade plum wine was also a surprise highlight—even as someone who doesn’t usually drink, I loved it. Such a thoughtful touch at the end too—Tomoko took us to a local supermarket to pick up key ingredients so we can try making sushi at home. Would 100% recommend—such a special, memorable experience.

Ein wirklich wunderbares Abenteuer – Tomoko ist eine unglaubliche Gastgeberin und Lehrerin! Ihre Führung durch das Tempelgelände war faszinierend und landschaftlich reizvoll, und der Kochkurs (Sushi für uns) war zugänglich, informativ und köstlich. Sehr empfehlenswert für alle Reisenden!
