A Highlight of Our Trip to Japan! - Osaka has some of the best food in Japan, so of course my wife and I wanted to take a cooking class when we visited. And we could not have asked for a better experience! Yayo-sensei (she did teach us, after all) is an incredible instructor and one of the kindest people I've ever met! From cooking to hands-on instruction to cleaning, she handled every part of the class flawlessly. I actually ended up taking the class on my birthday and while she was already doing a stellar job, when my wife told her it was my birthday, she went above and beyond to make me feel celebrated. To speak to the class itself, it is a great value and very educational. My wife and I walked away stuffed and with leftovers to boot! The variety of dishes was fantastic and the ingredients were all high quality and included things like homemade miso and soy sauce. Pretty much as soon as I left, I was already excited to try making the dishes I learned from Yayo-sensei in my own kitchen! I've taken cooking classes all over the world, but this one was by far the best. I would absolutely recommend it to pretty much anyone. Thank you so much, Yayo-sensei!

A fun morning making delicious Japanese dishes with Yayo - Yayo was fantantic. We were the only two in her class last week and we loved it. She was so kind and welcoming and willingly shared her knowledge about Japanese cooking culture. She showed us how to to make some great dishes, we enjoyed it all! It was lots of fun and we thoroughly recommend Yayo's class. The gift at the end was a lovely surprise.

A must do in Osaka - We had such an amazing time at this class. The individual instruction was fantastic, and we made very practical, traditional Japanese food. I would highly recommend this cooking class for its authenticity and intimate nature.

Best evening in Osaka - Yayo’s cooking class was the highlight of our holiday and time spent in Osaka. The experience far exceeded our expectation - which was already very high! We learned to make 4 dishes in Yayo’s lovely home - all of which were delicious! Yayo was a great teacher and lovely company too, telling us about everything Japan and its food. There were many surprises throughout the evening which made it so special, and Yayo really made us feel at home. We were sad when the evening came to an end, and cannot recommend this highly enough to other people visiting Osaka. Thank you Yayo (and Akane 💜) for making our stay so special. Filippa & Paul
