Experience authentic Tokyo beyond the tourist areas and step into the world of Japanese home cooking with Emi, a local host who will teach you the dishes Japanese families cook at home. In this private Tokyo cooking class, you'll cook three traditional dishes, learn everyday cooking techniques, and share a meal while discovering the culture behind the food. Begin your experience with a refreshing cup of mugi-cha (barley tea) before diving into your hands-on Japanese cooking lesson. Choose any three dishes from her curated menu (note *okonomiyaki contains fish stock). To ensure a seamless experience, all guests will prepare the same main dish, so kindly share your choice at least 4 days in advance, or Emi will thoughtfully select a menu for you. Over 1.5–2 hours, enjoy engaging conversations about food and Japanese culture while Emi guides you through creating your meal. Emi shares recipes so you can recreate these cherished flavors back home. Meeting Point: Emi hosts this experience at one of two private cooking studios, each within walking distance of either Nerima Station or Hikarigaoka Station. She will confirm the exact address three days before your experience.
