Customer Reviews
Very nice, friendly atmosphere and supportive instructors. The instructions were clear but they encouraged us to be individual in our designs. Very pretty crockery and delicious food (also very kawaii). Most things were prepared so it wasn't very difficult to make. Also, vegetarians were catered for very well. Overall, a lovely experience with a delicious result! 😋
This was the best experience on our first Japan trip so far!! Kenji was incredible! He was kind, funny, charismatic, patient, polite, very organized, and informative. Seriously this was so much better than I expected and my family loved it. Highly recommend. Kenjisan, hontōni arigatō!
Highly recommend!! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!! Mr. Kenji is so kind, patient, and sweet! I requested only chicken to be used for the meat and he allowed me to use eggs and carrots as substitutions! I was able to make everything the same. He made the food himself (it was DELICIOUS) and gave us time to take photos of our bento boxes!
