The best Japanese cooking class ❤️ - My husband and I took part in the Okonomiyaki class by Keiko, we were celebrating our honeymoon as well. Keiko and her colleagues were really kind and friendly, we had an amazing time, enjoying and learning how to cook Okonomiyaki. The amount of people was perfect, not a big a class so we could interact with eachother, share moments. It was really fun, well organised and tasty 😋. Thank you very much Keiko, hope to see you again. Maria from Spain 😊

Great experience - We had a great time with Keiko learning about and making our own Okonomiyaki. Both Keiko and her mother were incredibly accommodating and taught us about traditional fillings while ensuring that we had a hands on experience, choosing our own fillings to make the Okonomiyaki to our liking. Would highly recommend this experience to anybody visiting Osaka.

Learn how to make Okonomiyaki and get to eat it too - My wife and I had a fantastic experience with Keiko. We learned how to cook Okonomiyaki Osaka style and learned the differences from Hiroshima style. Through the cooking process we learned it's importance in everyday Japanese family life, in ways that might surprise you. Keiko was prepared, clear and organized in her teaching. She presented many options for making the dish to suit anyone's eating requirements, including vegans. You participate in the process and make your own food, all included. It is a very relaxed class and you can ask all your questions. She is assisted by her mother, which tops off the very warm experience that takes place in a hotel's breakfast room. We then sat and are our creations and chatted about Japanese life. After thr experience Keiko sent us written information on how to make Okonomiyaki which allowed us to be engaged during the experience without taking notes. Highly recommend this experience.

Must do cooking experience in Osaka. - Had a wonderful and informative discussion with Keiko who was our instructor. Keiko has very strong English skills and shared with us the history of Okonomiyaka and how the various regions do it slightly different. It was a great lesson followed by eating the product of our own making. Highly recommend.
