Wonderful and traditional

Parisa_S, Oct 2025

Everything was wonderful and traditional, it was a truly memorable day. The experience of making traditional Japanese dishes was very special for me, especially since I truly enjoy them

Response from Host, Oct 2025

Thanks so much for coming to the workshop the other day! Try having an onigiri party or a sushi roll party at home too! Miso soup tastes great with shellfish in it! Let me know if you're ever back in Hiroshima!

It’s not just a cooking class, it’s THE COOKING CLASS

Cecilia_D, Sep 2025

The host had a great communication all of the time and provided really good explanations. It’s not “just to make onigiri” but have a bit of history and lots of fun. We enjoyed the experience and the food.

Fantastic holiday activity

This was great way to spend a morning. Lots of learning, laughing and good was delicious! Great location right next to Peace Park too.

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Sorry for the late reply! I'm glad you enjoyed it. When you see the onigiri, you'll want to eat it again! Please come to Hiroshima again!

Must not miss!

This was an amazing experience! Midori picked us up from our hotel and took us to Weiko's lovely home (then dropped us back at the end!). Our two hosts were incredible, spoke excellent English and had set up a play area for our two young kids to play. We got to make 3 kinds of onigiri, miso soup, participate in a tea ceremony and shared Japanese sweets for dessert. They explained Japanese traditions and culture for us and were so friendly and helpful. They also provided us with chopstick holders that had our names in kanji on them. The food was absolutely delicious and the whole experience was just delightful. This was the highlight of our whole Japan trip! I highly recommend Onigiri Hiroshima! 🍙🍡

Response from Host, Aug 2025

Sorry for the late reply! I've just gotten used to the Viator system. How are the kids doing? We'll also be starting sushi roll classes this summer. Please come to Hiroshima again!
