All my Japanese sweets are made from only vegetable ingredients, and l don’t use white sugar;)

Hello everyone. I'm Kayo. The mother of three kids. I enjoy making meals and lunch boxes for them everyday. I try to make Japanese cuisine for their health and growth. I love making and eating Japanese cuisine(Washoku) and sweet(Wagashi). I experienced living abroad in 2018, and I learned about different food styles such as vegan, vegetarian and halal. I was surprised that the food diversity is very natural overseas. After returning to Japan, I received a lecture from BentoYa Cooking (Japanese cooking association for vegan and vegetarian), and certified as an instructor. I want to pass on Japanese cuisine that can accommodate the food diversity. My cooking class is held at home. Children are also welcome. there's a Japanese-style room, so if you wish, you can dine in Japanese style. Let's enjoy cooking together:)

The wagashi experience we had was one of the highlights of this trip. Kayo-san is so patient with us and really accommodating with our requests. She's one of a kind! We'll definitely book her again for our future kitchen sessions :)

Last time I took a trip to Japan, I took advantage of this package to get some Japanese cultural Immersion and enjoy family-style dining. Now I am hooked on it. Can't wait to do this again.
