At SOBAGIRI-RAKUJYO in Kappabashi, visitors can enjoy an authentic soba noodle cutting experience rooted in traditions dating back to Japan’s Edo period, all within a convenient 30-minute session. Participants learn the full process of soba making, from adding water to premium buckwheat flour, kneading and stretching the dough, to carefully cutting noodles with a traditional knife. This hands-on culinary activity offers a rare opportunity to experience a refined Japanese food culture that is often appreciated by true connoisseurs rather than casual visitors.
Using the finest buckwheat flour from Shinshu, one of Japan’s most renowned buckwheat-growing regions, the experience combines quality ingredients with newly developed smart technology to significantly reduce preparation time. While traditional soba making can take up to 90 minutes, this efficient method allows adults and families to participate easily. A variety of flavors is available, including vegan options, making it accessible to different generations and nationalities, all set in Kappabashi, Tokyo’s famous kitchen knife district.

This was a very engaging ramen making lesson! The team guided us very well with clear instructions on how to make and cut our own ramen noodles. Thank you :)
Molly
This experience was so fun! As a solo traveler, they made me feel very welcome! You complete all steps from making the dough to cutting the noodles, to finally eating them! Highly recommend this experience!
Victoria
10/10 would come again!! very friendly and accommodating and allowed us to keep our luggage there during the class since we didn’t have anywhere to put it. You have options of what ramen to make and even comes with a drink! Would definitely do this again, and was a very good experience for our last day in Japan 🩷 They even gave us some dessert and snacks and didn’t rush us. Loveddd it so much. They were the sweetest!! The pictures were so cute
Richard
Really great experience You make, knead and cut your own soba (or ramen) before it is cooked by the chef so you can taste it! Explanation was very clear, the staff has really good vibe/energy Would definitely recommand doing it at least once ! The staff take picture for you so you can cook without worrying too much about it
Brooke
Absolutely one of the best experiences of our trip to Japan, we stumbled across this place shopping kitchen street and we were able to book that day! The class itself was very fun and the instructor kept it upbeat and was very easy to follow and worked one on one with everyone in the class. The best part was the instructor also took amazing pictures and videos during the class for us so we were able to just enjoy and not worried about missing photos.
