Incredible experience. Lovely kitchen and location. We learned so much and made our own Ramen noodles and Gyoza from scratch. Risa and Keigo were amazing hosts and teachers. They spoke perfect English and took so many photos for us. Highly recommend this cooking class.

This was one of our favorite activities in Japan. We experienced the thrill of preparing and cooking ramen and gyoza. Even better was eating the dishes which were cooked to perfection. Our chef was a fantastic instructor and made sure that we got it right and his assistant was the perfect cheerleader. Whether you are a novice or expert cook, I recommend this as a great way to spend an afternoon in Japan.

Amy_N, Oct 2026
This class exceeded my expectations! The teachers were super friendly and helpful. They take photos of you during the class which you can download later which is great so you can focus on enjoying the experience! Everything was so well organized with little scales, bowls, cups, spoons etc making it super easy! We had so much fun during this class and the food was absolutely delicious! We also got a paper and PDF of the recipe :) 100% recommend!

Excellent Cooking Class

Keryn_A, Oct 2026
We have done many cooking classes and this was one of our favourites. Keigo was our instructor and he made this class fun and informative. We learnt a lot and all the instructions were clear and printed out for us. They take time to portion out items and help us to enjoy the immersive experience. We ate all the food we prepared. Delicious. I can now make ramen noodles and gyoza.

Lyn_B, Oct 2026
A fabulous experience, where we were made feel very welcome and learned some new skills. Hosts were wonderful and very helpful. I would highly recommend!

Fun, delicious, informative!

Mitchell_E, Oct 2026
This class was super fun, the instructor spoke English plenty well and had a wonderful personality. The food was delicious and, unlike other cooking classes I’ve taken before, I will actually be trying them again when I get home. I have some food allergies and the instructor was very careful and made sure everything was safe. My partner and I had lovely conversation with the other couple taking the class. Definitely worth the time and money; come hungry!

Amazing Experience!

It was one of the best things we did in Japan! Riza was a perfect host/instructor and we learnt how to cook the dishes in a way that means we can definitely re-create them at home :)

Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class In Osaka

craig_c, Sept 2026
This was an amazing experience, learning to cook Ramen and Gyoza then eating it, Risa was so good with her instruction and made it so easy to do, she was friendly and very enthusiastic and also very knowledgable, I highly recommend doing this experience, and it’s great value as you get a great meal (as long as you cook it good haha) we loved it

Such a fun cooking class....

Mattie_R, Sept 2026
Such a fun cooking class. You learn to make the ramen noodles and gyoza dough from scratch. He gives you simple instructions and makes it incredibly easy to do. The ramen and gyoza ended up tasting amazing. Highly recommend this cooking class! Great instructor.

Excellent experience

Sandy_G, Sept 2026
The staff was terrific, we learned great cooking techniques and the food was delicious. Highly recommend.

This was a great class.

Bryan_N, Sept 2026
This was great. We mainly focused on noodle and dough making which is what I wanted. Not much was spent on broth, so don’t think this is a broth making class. I learned quite a few good techniques for making ramen noodles that I am excited to try at home.

Fabulous experience making Ramen.

Julie_B, Sept 2026
Had a fabulous time with Risa instructing us on how to make Ramen with fresh noodles and 2 types of Goyza. So much fun making noodles. Tasted delicious. Don’t have much to eat prior to the class.

Fantastic experience

Tim_E, Aug 2026
This was more technically informative than I expected and it was a great time. I left knowing how to make ramen from scratch and had a great time learning it. The teacher was fantastic and the environment was very comfortable. I would highly recommend it.

Great cozy learning experience

Alex_L, Aug 2026
A cozy cooking class hosted by two kind and fun teachers. Me and my friends had a great time learning how to cook gyoza and ramen from a true authentic source.

Great cookery class

Fun learning experience

Lissette_C, Jul 2026
We had a great time in this cooking class. We learned to make ramen and gyoza, and most of the prep work was already done, so we could focus on the fun parts. With only four people in the class, it felt calm, personal, and almost one‑on‑one. The food was excellent, and the hands‑on experience was exactly what we were looking for. If you prefer a loud, high‑energy group activity, this isn’t it. The class takes place inside someone’s apartment, so you do need to be quiet and respectful of the building.

Exception experience with Risa and Keigo

Ramon_C, Jul 2026
Incredible experience. Lovely kitchen and location. We learned so much and made our own Ramen noodles and Gyoza from scratch. Risa and Keigo were amazing hosts and teachers. They spoke perfect English and took so many photos for us. Highly recommend this cooking class.

Organized Cooking experience

Bridget_D, Jul 2026
This was a very well organized cooking experience. Everything was ready to go for us when we got there - including aprons, house slippers, ingredients, cooking tools etc. They took picture throughout and sent them to us on a Google drive. The food came out great. I learned some information about types of flour and kinds of soy sauce that I didn't know before.

Very worthwhile travelling activity and "souvenir" of Japan

Alkha_D, Jul 2026
Great small group experience...food at the end was also delicious! Our instructors were very patient and engaging.

Debbie_D, Jul 2026
This was one of the best tours we have done. The guide was interesting, informative and very Parris by. We made our noodles and skins from scratch. She made the experience fun for all of us. There were 3 children/teens in the group and they enjoyed it as much as the adults. The class moved quickly with everyone participating. Since we each made our own food, we could season it and add the flavors we liked. Not only was it a really fun experience, the finished product was delicious!

Fantastic - Highly recommend

Andrew_N, Jun 2026
Brilliant cookery class (29/06/2026 at 11.30am), the right balance of making it yourself but with pre-weighed ingredients. We had a fantastic time and learnt some new cooking skills/techniques

A guaranteed good time!!

kathe_c, Jun 2026
So much fun!! Super informative + engaging. Had a great time learning about the different techniques + there's nothing like enjoying a homemade meal after making it yourself. Can't wait to make it again now that I'm home.

Highly recommend!

jessy_h, Jun 2026
This was by far one of the best experience we had while in Japan. Fumi was awesome! She not only told us what to do step by step, she explained why we were doing it. She made it so much fun! Were we staying longer, we would have loved to attend another class or two that they offer.

This was a fantastic...

Michael_B, Jun 2026
This was a fantastic experience. They are very patient and clear on how to create your own dish with some opportunities to add your own twist to it. Would highly recommend this experience to any one who loves ramen and gyoza.

Carol_R, Jun 2026
It's a great hands-on experience. The owner and instructor explained each step and the background expertly - then we took the steps which we appreciated. The best way to learn for us! We would recommend this class.

Gyoza and Ramen Cooking Class

Ana_C, Jun 2026
Our overall experience was amazing! The instructors were very professional, friendly and knowledgeable . We loved the experience and would highly recommend this course with others. The food was amazing as well.

Best cooking experience

Ralph_M, Jun 2026
It was fantastic. Our chef Keigo was an excellent teacher who attended to all the details necessary to cook our dishes. He was personable, warm and friendly and carefully walked us through the entire process.

Wonderful hands-on experience ❤️

Otilia_W, Jun 2026
Wonderful hands-on experience ❤️ LOVED IT!!! Delicious dinner prepared by our hands. Keigo (instructor) was super nice and explained every step clearly. Juat know that the LOCATION is a bit difficult to find. It is next to a store that sells sweets. All you see from the street are 2 black doors. Next, you press a code to call the apartment upstairs and you will take the elevator to the 6th floor. Overall, a fabulous experience!!
