Yuriko and Yuka are waiting for your participation!
Yuriko: I started to learn to bake bread and sweets through 'Home Made Cooking' 25 years ago. I'm interested in cuisines from various countries, and I enjoy finding cooking classes in those countries when I traveled.
The menu we offer... 'Chiba Matsuri Sushi' from my mother. I have always made this menu for celebratory occasions. I also demonstrated Matsuri Sushi when I lived in Canada and at a cooking school in Italy. Yuriko

Yuka: My interest in cooking began when I was living in the US, and attended a course at the Culinary Institute of America. People from various countries asked me to cook Japanese home-cooked meals. From that experience, I want to introduce popular Japanese cuisine to as many people as we can.
I also love Italian cuisine. Gianluca in Firenze is my teacher of Tuscan cuisine. We are more than welcome to talk about various food experience in class. Yuka

昨日は、アメリカから来たお友達を連れて、一緒に参加しました。 料理はどれも、とても美味しかったです。 花の形をした巻き寿司は、作り方を丁寧に教えてもらい、可愛い形にできました。 友達もとても喜んでくれました。 雛祭りが近いので、是非作ってみようと思っています 楽しい時間をありがとうございました This was my second time in Japan, and I joined because I just love Japanese food! It was such a great experience — I got to enjoy Japanese culture and learned how to cook simple, tasty dishes. The English recipes were easy to understand, especially with the photos. Emma

We had a really good experience cooking with Yuriko and Yuka. They were extremely welcoming and nice, and they had a really nice chemistry with each other that made them delightful to watch and work with. They were very nice and patient with us and our 11 month old daughter. They prepared a child seat and snacks for her so she could watch at the table while we worked. Our Japanese level was quite low but we communicated smoothly in a mix of Japanese and English. The printed instructions were in English and Yuriko and Yuka gave very good demonstrations. We were able to follow along nicely and it was really nice seeing the festive sushi come together part by part. The ingredients were all very local and authentic - things that real Japanese families would use. In fact, that was the best part of the experience. We really felt welcomed into a local and down-to-earth experience. The location is a little bit from the nearest station but we were able to find the location easily with the instructions. Yuka and Yuriko were also happy to take us to the location if we needed it. Definitely recommended for an authentic local experience!
