About Host



Thank you for visiting my page. I'm a certified cooking instructor with the Japan Association of cooking for Foreigners.

I was born and raised in Kawasaki city、Kanagawa Pref. and moved to Nagoya 10 years ago. My father often invited his friends and relatives for dinner at my house. As a child, I enjoyed watching my mother prepare lots of delicious Japanese dishes for home parties, and I really loved the lively feeling of sharing the food with everyone.
Because of these experiences, after moving to California, I often cooked Japanese dishes for my friends. It brought me joy to see them enjoying Japanese cuisine regardless of their nationality or background.

I love meeting and talking with people from around the globe. Please share a story about you and your country while cooking at my house!
