Klase sa Pagluluto ng Kultura na Nagtatampok ng Ramen, Sushi, at Seremonya ng Tsaa

Chef Katsuji and his wife Mayumi welcomed us into their beautiful home for a wonderful morning. we started with a tea ceremony, before learning to prepare 5 types of sushi and ramen to Katsuji's own secret recipe. And then we feasted! At the end, we were gifted with handwritten cards, containing our names and a personalised message to each of us. Katsuji and Mayumi were amazing, generous and kind hosts and teachers. I learnt more knife skills in a couple of hours here than I had in 30 years of cooking for myself! our son, although a little nervous with raw fish, tried everything and loved the ramen particularly. He formed a lovely bond with our hosts and talks about how much he loved the lesson and would love to do it again. This is absolutely one of the best experiences we've had anywhere -not just Japan - and highly recommend to everyone.

The cooking lesson with Chef Katsuji was a fantastic experience! He taught us how to slice ingredients properly and even shared his delicious sushi and ramen recipes. We also loved the added touches of the tea ceremony, card calligraphy, and thoughtful souvenirs. It was a refreshing and memorable cultural experience.

Chef Katsuji and her wonderful wife Mayumi were so kind to open up their beautiful home to me and my Mom for a once-in-a-lifetime mother-daughter bonding experience. We loved how they were so attentive starting from waiting for us (bec we were late for about 30mins- we got lost a bit 😅) and even driving us back to the station (in Chef's sports car!) We loved the matcha tea ceremony and making our own sushi! My mom ultimately loved their special Ramen! We will treasure the calligraphy souvenir and we can't wait to try Chef's very own curry! We promise to recommend this Klook activity to our friends and families! Thank you again, Chef Katsuji and Mayumi! We will be back soon and see you in our dreams! 😉

My husband and I love to do cooking classes when we’re traveling abroad. However, Chef Matsuji & Mayumi made this experience very memorable! We experienced a tea ceremony, learned how to make sushi and ramen, and even received calligraphy art as a souvenir! Chef Matsuji is an experienced chef with 11 restaurants, but Chef Matsuji and Mayumi are very friendly and personable. Mayumi even took many photos so we can look back on this memory! I highly recommend this if you’re in Osaka!

We had a great time at this cooking class! They were both so friendly, kind and cheerful. We so much enjoyed participating in a tea making ceremony and learning to make sushi and ramen. Plus it was delicious! The calligraphy art we get to take home is a souvenir we will cherish. This will be a highlight from our Japan trip that we won’t forget. If you’re thinking about booking this class, we highly recommend!

Katsuji and his wife Mayumi are walking warmth and kindness. My husband and I took this class as part of our 15 year anniversary (trip to Japan). we selected this class specifically because it allowed us to learn the art behind some of our favorite dishes and we got to learn how to cut the fish for sushi. From the moment they greeted us to walking us out the door we felt like family. The joy this couple has for what they do is contagious. We got a one on one experience, so many laughs, a delicious lunch and a special souvenir to take home. This was my husband's favorite experience and mine too. Thank you both for being so welcoming. Your hospitality is a gift.

The highlight of our Japan trip! Our cooking and ramen class with Chef Katsuji and his wife Mayumi was the absolute highlight of our entire trip to Japan. Their warmth, kindness, and genuine hospitality made the experience unforgettable. From the moment we stepped into their home, we felt like welcomed guests rather than customers. The food we prepared—and devoured—was truly incredible. Chef Katsuji’s passion and expertise shone through in every step. Our teenage boys laughed, learned and appreciated the chefs lessons and spirit One of the most touching parts of the evening was the calligraphy drawing and personal messages they created for us. It was such a thoughtful and meaningful gesture—one we’ll always cherish. The reviews we read before booking were glowing, and now we understand why. Every word was 100% accurate. If you do just one thing while in Japan, make it this class. Our whole family left feeling inspired, grateful, and completely blown away. Thank you for everything

If you’re looking for a culinary experience that will delight all your senses and create unforgettable memories, look no further than Katsuji’s class. From the moment we arrived at his beautiful home, we were greeted with the warmest hospitality from Katsuji and his wonderful staff member, Bubu. Their genuine friendliness and eagerness to share their passion for Japanese cuisine set the tone for a truly exceptional experience. The class itself was an absolute joy. Katsuji is not only an incredibly skilled chef but also a fantastic teacher who makes every step of the cooking process engaging and enjoyable. We learned to prepare both exquisite ramen and sushi, and the flavors were out of this world—elevated by Katsuji's expert guidance and his knack for making cooking fun. What made this experience even more special were the shared laughs and the welcoming atmosphere that Katsuji and Bubu fostered throughout the class. It wasn’t just a cooking lesson; it was an immersive cultural experience that we will cherish forever. The handmade calligraphy art that we received as a take-home gift was a lovely and thoughtful touch, allowing us to remember this unique and memorable experience every time we look at it. This class was, without a doubt, our favorite experience of the trip. We highly recommend it to anyone looking to dive into the beauty of Japanese cuisine and culture. Katsuji and his staff are exceptional hosts, and their class is a must-do for anyone visiting the area!

Wow! On this 3 week journey of Japan, this has been the best thing! Chef Katsuji and his wonderful wife Mayumi are a perfect example of Japan and it's culture. This class was more than cooking, and that in itself was awesome, these beautiful people opened their home to share their skills and culture and made you feel very welcome. Thank you Chef and Mayumi we will never forget your generous hospitality. I will forever recommend this class as long as it is available.

Katsuji is a man larger than life. He has the most welcoming house and an unforgettable smile on his face at all times. He went above and beyond in every single way, we could not be more amazed. Truly worth every cent. If you are ever in Japan, I would more than recommend traveling to Osaka just for this unforgettable experience. ありがとございますかつじさん
