There are several types of cooking classes listed in airKitchen.
I will show you what type of cooking class you have, so you can find the type of cooking class that suits you.
Home type
Unlike the space dedicated to cooking classes, it is the type that will teach in the kitchen at home.
Since the host does not expect to deal with a large number of people, it is targeted from at most 4 to 6 guests from individuals.
The fun of this type is in the typical kitchen and home atmosphere of the people living in that country.
As you use cooking utensils as you usually use, I think that you will gain a better understanding of home cooking.
If you do not have Japanese friends, you will not have the opportunity to visit a typical Japanese house.
It is also interesting to look at rooms other than the kitchen, because you can feel the personality of the teacher and the characteristics of the country.
Because it is a small group, it is also fun to be able to talk about Japanese culture and the culture of your home country with the local Japanese host.
airKitchen has many home-style cooking classes.
You can recognize that it is a home-style cooking class with the “house” icon on the cooking class introduction page.
Classroom type
This is the type where specialized facilities for cooking classes are provided.
In this type of cooking class, the host demonstrates cooking on the cooking table in front of the class.
In some of these types of cooking classes, mirrors are placed above the counter so that the participants can see the hands of the host.
You can see what kind of cooking you are doing from the top.
In some places, there are cooking facilities and equipment that can be cooked by each person.
In some places, the guest side has only a simple table for eating.
The advantage of this classroom type is that you can see the host cooking from both the front and the top.
This structure is suitable for cooking classes because you want to look closely at the host when learning how to cook.
On the other hand, in this type of cooking class, a large number of guests often participate, so it may be difficult to be intimate with the host.
Restaurant type
There is also a type of classroom taught in the kitchen of the restaurant that is actually used.
Naturally, I can not use the busy time of the restaurant because I use the kitchen of the restaurant.
The host organizes cooking classes using restaurant holidays and idle times.
The best part of this type is that you can experience cooking in a professional kitchen.
Unless you work in a restaurant, you can not easily experience cooking in a professional kitchen.
Conclusion
The cooking classes listed in airKitchen are broadly classified as above.
When you choose a cooking class, you may want to assume in advance what settings you want to learn about cooking and what you want to experience with elements other than cooking.
