Overview

Enjoy a cooking class in an atmospheric setting—a beautiful wooden house in Kyoto. The cooking experience introduces you to local recipes that you wouldn’t be able to find in restaurants, and techniques that have been passed down through many generations of the host’s family. Dishes prepared vary depending on the time of year, but sample menu items could be chikuzenni (braised chicken and vegetables), braised burdock root, and miso soup.
  • A more intimate alternative to crowded cooking classes—a private home class
  • Hassle-free cooking experience with a meal and alcoholic drinks included
  • A private class means you can stop and ask questions along the way
  • Lots of variety—make a selection of seasonal home-style dishes

Wonderful experience with Aki in her home. Amazing vibes, amazing food. The highlight of our Kyoto stay for sure. She is very kind and patient with cooking instructions and gave us great recommendations for things to do later!
