The secret to making items beautiful, shared

Erik_K, Oct 2025

Great environment for cooking. Catering to learning with pictures and brief history of the food being prepared, with premium ingredients prepped beforehand. Aki was superb in teaching both the novice and experienced, how proper food is prepared in Japanese households. Providing a list of choices, then going off-book at one's request because of dietary restrictions and tastes, then providing suitable replacements was nothing short of amazing. Learning the art of how to make each ingredient more beautiful and presentable was worth the cost of the class, easy. Hope Aki is still teaching for a future trip! Easily a Five Star experience.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful message! I'm truly happy you enjoyed the class despite the monsoon weather. It was a joy to cook with you both and adapt the menu to your tastes—I'm so glad it made the experience special. Hope to welcome you again on your next trip!

We had such a great time...

We had such a great time cooking with Aki! The experience was very engaging and she walked us through every step of the process. We made sushi, gyoza, and miso soup and it was all fantastic.

Response from Host, Sep 2025

Thank you for joining my cooking class. I really enjoyed cooking with you. You made Gyoza and Sushi beautifully. You can open Japanese restaurant in Chicago!
