Great experience! - I had booked a cooking class with traditional Japanese dishes. The course was really great. I was greeted by Miho very friendly with water and Japanese snacks in a traditional Japanese apartment. Then I cooked several dishes together with Miho: Miso soup, spinach salad, Japanese omelette, inari sushi, sushi rolls, tempura and homemade mochi ice cream for dessert. Miho had already prepared various things, so the cooking time was shortened. There was more time to explain the ingredients and the preparation steps. I particularly liked the fact that I could cook or prepare my own "lunch set" myself and not just watch it cook. The highlight, of course, was the subsequent meal. It tasted delicious and I'll certainly be cooking the dishes at home soon. Another highlight after the cooking class was the joint visit to the supermarket. Miho not only explained what ingredients are needed for her recipes, but also patiently explained many Japanese foods and their use. All in all, the cooking class with Miho was one of the Unpacked of my trip to Japan and I highly recommend it!

Great and TASTY introduction to Japanese cuisine - I love cooking and was looking for a class that would introduce me to Japanese cuisine and culture, and that would for various levels of cooking skills. The class was just that! In about 3 hires we managed the make a full Japanese meal, including dessert, and eat it. The teacher was very kind and patient, and was willing to explain every little detail about the dishes we made, while maintaining a very happy and welcoming environment. Definitely recommend!

Cooking class or Samouri work shop? These too are our best experience in Kyoto - We wanted to see an authentic Japanese home. We got bigger experience. Cooking together with Miho, learning so much more than the cooking class, about Miho, about Japanese people and customs. We enjoyed the tour to the supermarket and the explanations all over the store. We took the lunch & tour, I highly recommend it

Cooking Made Easy! - My wife and I attended our first instructional course from tripadvisor with a little hesitation at first but all that was put aside on the day of our first cooking class with Miho San. Her class being our first ever instructional course through tripadvisor turned out to be such a great experience. Her style of teaching and her general personality made the lesson itself tremendously easy to follow and without any stress once so ever. I highly recommend her to anyone who wishes to partake in a class in the Kyoto region regarding learning how to cook simple Japanese dishes. Thank you! We look forward to taking her course again when the chance arises.

Wonderful experience - We had a wonderful experience with the cooking class. Miho was kind, patient and her explanation were precise. She gave us a memorable experience. We learnt to make many classics that we can’t wait to do back home! We will recommend this experience to any friends that are going to visit Kyoto. If you are in the area, you must take a little time for this cooking class. Plus, it’s near Fushimi Inari so it’s the perfect day.
