Ramen is a noodle soup dish and perhaps one of the most popular Japanese dishes. There are many flavours of ramen, such as Shoyu (soy sauce) ramen, Miso ramen, Tonkotsu (pork bone) ramen and so on. Common toppings are Chashu (braised pork), Negi (green onion) and Nori (dried seaweed).
Gyoza is a dumpling using wrapping thing dough to hold the inner ingredients. Most commonly, minced pork, cabbage, Garlic and Leek. The origin of Gyoza is from China but it has evolved uniquely in Japan and now quite different from the Chinese one.
Hello! My name is Amita. As an Indian vegetarian with a lifelong passion for
cooking, I have been exploring the culinary world since I was 15 years old. Now, with over 25 years of living in Japan, I've mastered the art of creating delicious vegetarian and vegan dishes in a country where such options aren't always readily available.
My culinary repertoire includes a variety of cuisines, from Indian and Mexican to traditional Japanese, tailored to suit vegetarian and vegan diets.
Living in Asakusabashi, a renowned sightseeing spot in Tokyo, I am not only passionate about food but also about sharing my love for different
cultures. My home is a gateway to fascinating shopping spots and delectable restaurants in Tokyo, and I'm always eager to introduce these hidden gems to visitors.
In addition to hosting cooking classes, I work with Wabi Sabi Travel Co. Japan. I serve as a host for their vegan and vegetarian culinary learning clients, accommodating up to six guests at a time. My role also extends to being a personal shopper and stylist, helping clients discover the best of Tokyo's fashion and shopping scene.
Join me for an unforgettable culinary experience, where we explore the wonders of vegan and vegetarian Japanese cuisine together!
Let's meet at Asakusabashi station (Asakusa Line: A4 Exit, Sobu Line: West Exit) which is just 10 mins away from Tokyo station.
Hello. My name is Amita. I am
an Indian vegetarian. I have been interested in cooking since I was 15 years old and still cooking almost everyday. I have been living in Japan for the past 25+ years and vegetarian food not very easily available here, I cook a variety of cuisine including Indian , Mexican Japanese etc.. Therefore, for vegetarian/ vegan Japanese cuisine, I think that I can make most menus. I like to touch different cultures, so I'd like to talk with people from various countries. If we can meet, I’d like to enjoy Language Exchange too. My home is in Asakusabashi which is famous as a sightseeing spot. I can also introduce interesting shopping spots and delicious restaurants in Tokyo.

★★★★★We very much enjoyed the vegetarian cooking class! The welcoming and homely atmosphere was really nice and the gyoza and ramen recipes were delicious and of a good level (as in, new flavours for us but very doable to try at home as well). Thanks a lot Amita!

★★★★★We had a wonderful cooking class with Amita. She was very friendly, chatty and welcomed us into her home. She explained everything really clearly and assisted us if we needed any tips or help- particularly when folding the gyozas! She made sure that everything was vegan for us, which was fantastic. Would recommend!
