      Momo is awesome and really knowledgeable! We had a fantastic time and I highly recommend checking out this class if you're in Osaka. Even if you don't particularly like sake, it was still definitely worth it!!

      Where else will you find a sake sommelier
      dillon_r, Apr 2024
      If you want a sake (nihonshu) sommelier to learn about the favorite Japanese drink this is by far the best use of your time in Osaka. I signed up for morning session and ended up alone but it allowed me to learn a lot & ask plenty of questions. The takoyaki was super cool/fun to make and the host is extremely friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. 10/10 even if not a fan and are more interested in the Takoyakii
      Excellent experience in Osaka

      Momoko was friendly and personable and had excellent command of English. She led us through the different types of sake taught us how to make our own choices based on the different flavour profiles. The takoyaki making was fun and easy to do and added a nice twist to a typical tasting class. We would definitely recommend this class!
      Amazing experience, Momoka was excellent

      A truly incredible experience. Our guide Momoka was very knowledgeable about the sake making and producing process, and taught us so much about the different kinds and flavour profiles of sake. The okonomiyaki DIY aspect is an absolute blast to do! I would highly recommend this event to anyone who wants a fun evening experience in the heart of Dotonbori!
      Awesome!

      Momoku was awesome! We loved our sake tasting and cooking class. Momoku was a knowledgeable sommelier, provided lots of information and fun facts and helped us learn how to cook. We would highly recommend and would do it again!
      DIY Takoyaki & Sake tasting you don’t want to Miss!
      Jamie_B, Apr 2024
      This was our first Tokoyaki DIY and sake tasting experience in Japan since we arrived. Momo was so friendly and amazing! I love the small group which included only my family of 5. Which made this experience very comfortable and enjoyable since it was a more personal experience. Momo’s sake brewery experience has given her so much knowledge about sake and we have learned so much during this class. We had so much fun making fresh Takoyaki and enjoyed tasting them even more. I highly recommend this class if you’re in Dotonbori area.
      Amazing

      Wonderful experience learning about and tasting different Sakes and the hands-on making of takoyaki. Momoko is a fabulous host.
      It was awesome

      So much fun 🤩.. Fabulous.. 🐙🍶👏🏼
      Georgie_C, Feb 2024
      Wow, our host Momoko is so bubbly and happy who is a local but also speaks English very well. We learnt so much about Sake as well as drank 😃 as much as we could. We made Takoyaki and I could even make mine vegetarian 🤣 which was wonderful. They were looking like a train wreck then perfection like the street vendors. We had a fabulous night. 🐙🍶👏🏼
      Highly recommended
      Yana_G, Feb 2024
      We had so much fun learning all about sake and making our own takoyaki. Momoko-san was very knowledgeable and patient in explaining details with us. She also gave us wagyu cheese takoyaki to make, which was so unique. Highly recommend as one of the activities you can do in Osaka, right in the center of Dotonburi. Arigato Momoko-san! :)
      Great Night in Osaka with Saki & Takoyaki
      Garry_M, Jan 2024
      Even though we got a little lost and arrived late we were looked after brilliantly. It was most informative, generous and entertaining. Momo was a wonderful host and the diy takoyaki were honestly the best I have had, even though we cooked them ourselves. Seriously recommend this tour to anyone.
      Superb experience in a cozy bar!
      LiBin_S, Jan 2024
      Momoko-san is very knowledgeable in Nihonshu (aka Sake) and she gave very detailed explanations of the manufacturing process and varieties of Sake. The atmosphere of the bar was very relaxed and homely, and my child had a great time learning how to make Tako-yaki too! To top it off, we had an aged-sake/milk ice-cream dessert which was heavenly! Momoko was very passionate to share about Japanese culture from Osaka and we learnt a great deal while having fun! Strongly recommend for all visitors to Osaka to try out this experience!
      Wonderful experience with Master brewer
      Mary_K, Dec 2023
      This was one of my favorite experiences in Japan. Osaka is such a vibrant city and food mecca. I was privileged to have M all for myself (I was only particpate that day). The space was small but very coductive to tastings for sake and takoyaki. I learned so much about brewing process and different grades of sake. And takoyaki diy was so fun and easy! I brought grittle the minute I came back the states. I can't recommend the event enough! If you love adventure, food and sake, this is a must when in Osaka! Mary from Chicago
      Great sake tasting and takoyaki cooking experience!
      Norm_C, Nov 2023
      We had a great time. Momoko is super friendly and made us feel right at home. 100% recommend. The place is cute and pretty easy to find (she sends a maps link).
      Great Sake and Takoyaki experience in the heart of Dotonbori!

      The Takoyaki DIY workshop and Sake tasting with Momoko was great, the three of us really enjoyed it. She is a very charming and fun person and a great expert of Sake who can explain the differences between each type really well. Also, making our Takoyaki was a lot of fun and they ended up being very tasty. We tried many different sake and had a great evening with her, we can definitely recommend her! Thanks Momoko!
