I greatly enjoyed Masako's cooking class and learning about Japanese calligraphy. I learned how to make udon, tamagoyaki, and tempura; she also provided a nice recipe summary brochure for all of them. I have a much higher appreciation of Japanese cuisine preparation and presentation.

What an absolute amazing experience! Masako was a delight and we learned so much. I still make the tamagoyaki every week. One of my favourite things I did in Japan and I would recommend anyone else curious to try cooking authentic Japanese food to go. Thank you so much!

Kimberly Cubilla, United States of America

Our cooking class with Masako was an enjoyable experience, learning how to make udon noodles, tempura, and tamagoyaki. Masako was very accomadating and friendly, even going the extra mile by writing our names in Japanese, gifting us plates, and offering recommendations for where to go in Tokyo. We would recommend this experience to anyone who wants to learn how to cook Japanese comfort foods.

Jan 2024

Will, United States of America

Our experience with Masako was wonderful. With two young kids and four grandparents, I thought it may not be easy to have a smooth lesson but Masako and her assistant handled everything perfectly. They got everyone involved at the right level and right pace, and made sure the kids have something to eat quickly with the fried eggs before we worked on the tempura and udon. The neighborhood is also very authentic and local, unlike the usual commercialized areas like Ginza, Shibuya, etc. Overall I would highly recommend anyone who wants to learn more about Japanese culture and cooking to try this class.

Dec 2023

Joanne, United States of America

I had a great experience making handmade udon, tamagoyaki and tempura in Masako’s class. It offers cooking skills learning along with an immersive cultural experience.

Dec 2023

Alycia, United States of America

My family and I loved our cooking class with Masako. The udon turned out great, the tempura was tasty, and the tamagoyaki was challenging but worth it! We made great memories during this class.

Dec 2023

Garrett, United States of America

Masako was an amazing teacher guiding us through the entire process of making Udon from scratch. We were also able to make tamagoyaki and tempura in the class. The meal afterward was amazing. Also she was so nice to our class of 5.

Jessica, United States of America

Our cooking experience with Masako was so wonderful! She was patient, informative, and so friendly. We made great food (Japanese egg omelet, udon, tempura) and everything was delicious. It was a great amount of food for an affordable cost as far as cooking classes go. These classes take place in an adorable studio in a quieter neighborhood. I would highly recommend this to anyone interested in a hands-on experience!

Kateřina, Czech Republic

Really pleasant experience!

Oct 2023

Brendan, Australia

Masako was welcoming, answered any and all questions I had and went above and beyond to make sure I had a good experience. It was amazing to learn everything about her cooking, history and even recommendations on what to see and where to go. I will consider this one of the best experiences I've had in Japan and would highly encourage everyone to do it as well!

Oct 2023

Beverly, United States of America

This was a very worthwhile and thorough class. Masako let’s you do the hands on work and demonstrates technique. We learned how to make the udon noodles, how to prepare tempura batter correctly and fry our veg/shrimp, and of course the tamagoyaki (rolled omelette) using her mother’s recipe. We were given a tamagoyaki pan to take with us so we could make them at home. I’d recommend showing up a bit early as the main street is really cute with many small shops, cafes, restaurant. Artwork on the walls is super cool. The class takes place in her working studio which is in a suburban neighborhood.

Crystal, United States of America

Our experience with Masako-San was amazing! Easily one of the top things we have done on our first trip to Japan! Masako-San did a great job explaining the various parts of the cooking experience and even gifted us some beautiful calligraphy of our names (and a secret gift too)! We got to make tempura vegetables, fresh udon, and tamagoyoki! Everything was delicious and Masako-San even gave us some special sake! I highly recommend this experience especially for couples wanting to learn more about Japanese culture and cooking! Thank you Masako-San!!!!!

Carol , Hong Kong

Me and my son very enjoyed Miss Masako’s lesson. My son was feeling bad during that time. She took care of my son very gently. Packed all dishes to him. We love her calligraphy so much. Highly recommend it. Arigatogoazimashita

Kyle, United States of America

Our experience with Masako was incredible! It was a great introduction to making simple Japanese cuisine with thorough direction! Masako was very welcoming and helpful plus she is an amazing storyteller as well with all of her travel experience! We left the class learning more than just how to make Udon, Tamagoyaki, and Tempura. We left with an even bigger respect and knowledge for Japanese culture than what we started with. I highly recommend this class to ANYONE, but mostly those who want to start learning how to make Japanese food, likes conversation, and wants to explore one of Tokyo’s more quiet, historical, and local sections.

Masako is a gem - she was so warm, friendly, and worldly - the 3 hours we spent with her flew by as we were deep in udon, tamagoyaki, and tempura creation territory. She opened up her home, taught us to cook delicious food, and sent us off with beautiful calligraphy parting gifts. Thank you so much Masaka - a day we will remember and treasure forever!

Rachel , United States of America

I had such an amazing time! It was easy to find the location with google maps and the neighborhood was so lovely I wanted to stick around after the lesson to explore. Masako and her assistant Kemi were so kind and helpful and patient - I am not an easy student in the kitchen but they made me feel very comfortable and relaxed. I was so grateful to also have had another person grouped with me to have the added bonus of making such a unique connection with a fellow traveler! The directions were easy to follow and super fun. We laughed, took pictures, asked all sorts of questions, learned a lot, ate our delicious food, and have a truly special experience to remember and share for life. Another added bonus was that Masako brush painted our names in kanji for us to keep as well as packing the extra food for us to eat later along with another little gift. I’ve never been a good cook but I may start to be one now since this class made it seem so exciting and interesting. Thank you so much for your kindness and generosity! Totemo kancha shiteimasu!

Jakub, Germany

Highly recommended! We had an amazing cooking/ dinner experience with Masako-san. She warmly welcomed us into her kitchen and showed us how to prepare a lot of different things. She was kind and encouraging in her teaching. We had an extra request to have vegetarian food on the menu, which she was able to accommodate easily. We also had the opportunity to witness her do calligraphy, which was an amazing sight and we stayed for a little while longer and had a great chat with her. We hope that she has the opportunity to share her passion for cooking with a lot more people in the future.

Michael, United States of America

Learning how to make Udon with Masako was an absolute pleasure. She was communicative and helpful and I came out with beautiful looking Udon. In total we made udon, tempera, and an tamago roll. Things did feel a bit rushed and if possible the pacing should be slowed down a bit, though that may be hard with everything that is being made during this session. Masako sent me her recipe afterwards and I hope to replicate things at home once more! I would absolutely recommend others to learn from Masako!

It was a great experience with Masako! She was warm, friendly and a great cook and teacher (: We really loved how she guided us through the entire cooking process and it was a very satisfying meal at the end of the day. Would definitely come back and attend another of her teaching lessons ^^

My cooking experience with Masako today was insightful and delicious. Masako was very attentive and provided much information about each dish which included Tamagoyaki, Udon noodles and Tempura. I enjoyed every moment of my cooking experience with Masako and I look forward to my next one. Thank you Masako for your hospitality and your love for food.

Had a great time with Masako! Nice area conveniently located close to Asakusa area. She has a homey kitchen and loved making the dough for the noodles. She was eager to share her homemade pickles from her mother's garden and any tips on making other kinds of Japanese food. Thanks for being so accommodating and kind!

Masako is amazing, she helped us make Udon, Tempura and Tamagoyaki, all from scratch. She let us try other food and drink that she had made herself, and made fans with our names on in calligraphy. We were late but she was very accommodating, and we didn't feel rushed at all. If we ever come back to Japan, we would definitely book another of Masako's classes.

I was hesitant to book as I was by myself in Japan for a week for work, but it was a great experience! Nobody else signed up at the time so Masako explained all the steps, showed me how to do it, and had me make everything. She's very friendly and speaks English, so I highly recommend you sign up for the class, it was a lot of fun! I bought some ingredients to take home and make it for my family.

My girlfriend and I had a wonderful cooking experience with Masako! She was a great host. All her recipes were delicious, some of which were family recipes. We visited Japan over the New Year period and Masako took the time to explain the culture behind New Years symbols and activities. We made more food than we could eat and she helped us to package leftover- extremely thoughtful. She also sent us off with handmade calligraphy of our names in Japanese characters — so cool! We were very thankful and would highly recommend this cooking experience!

Hi Masako, thanks for letting me book last minute for a one on one lesson for Tamagoyaki, Udon and Tempura. It was great learning the little tricks to make these classic simple dishes taste great. Also for the little japanese sayings/words etc such as Mottainai. Thanks again for a great class, will recommend to all.

Our cooking experience with Masako was excellent! She picked us up from the train station and took us to the kitchen. She explained what everything is and showed us clear instructions on how to prepare our meal! She was a lovely host and I would recommend her cooking class to anyone!

Enjoy the cooking & a great experience. Masako San is a great host, she shared her homemade Tamagoyaki recipe which she had it since young. Her Udon & tempura are easy to prepare too. Always answer & explain to questions patiently.

My friend and I had a great class with Masako. She welcomed us in her wonderful typical Japanese-style apartment. We were really impressed by her cooking skills and knowledge of Japanese cuisine. She taught us the right technique for every dish that we made. It was really interesting to see how many little details make up the taste of these traditional Japanese dishes. Cooking udon from scratch was definitely a blast ! The atmosphere of the lesson was very pleasant : Masako was a very thoughtful host and teacher. She was also full of energy and curious, so we had the nicest talk with her. On top of that, she is a woman of many talents, and we got to leave with personalized gifts (thank you so much for that !). All in all, we had a lovely morning and we definitely recommend to live this experience.

Me and a friend took an Udon noodle making class with Masako and it was the best experience! I can highly recommend this to anyone who is in Japan! First, the food was AMAZING! Second, Masako was really flexible with me being a VEGETARIAN! She had a great alternative for the broth (w/o any fish or meat) :-) Also, we ended up making not only the traditional Udon noodles, but also tempura! Thank you, Masako, for making this a wonderful event :)

I’ve cooked Japanese food before in my home and have visited Japan many times before. But in my most recent trip I have decided to do something different, which is to do an authentic Japanese cooking lesson.
I did a comprehensive google search and nothing was really meeting what I wanted to cook or no host was available last minute.
That was until I found out about airkitchen. I found a course that I wanted to take, and was able to book it for the very next day!
The communication I received by the head office and the host cook was fantastic, replies in a timely manner and the English was superb!
Overall the cooking experience was something I’ll never forget, photos were provided to me of the lesson, and I was provided with great gifts also!
This is someone I highly recommend to anyone, whether you’re in Japan for short or long stay. The lessons can fit in with any schedule.
5 out of 5!
Thank you again,
Daniel

Masako is a typical Japanese lady who will teach you Japanese food the way it is done. I sign up for udon but she also teach tempura and egg omelette while waiting for the udon dough. Making udon was fun as we need to use our foot to step on it (of course we use plastic to cover). Masako makes me feel cooking is easy and would recommend anyone interested in learning.

I visited Tokyo many times.  I always want to attend a cooking class in a Japan local residence so that not only I can learn how to make Japanese dishes but also I can learn the Japanese culture.  Thanks “airKitchen” for making my dream comes true! I like the service of airKitchen team as they replied to my email enquiry promptly so I could decide which course to take. The host Masako-san provided great hospitality and made me feel like home.  I enjoyed doing hands-on udon and tempura making, especially the traditional way in making udon! I also enjoyed sitting down and eating our finished products together.  A great sharing time, just like having a gathering in a friend’s home! This is truly an enjoyable and memorable experience!  I am really looking forward to my next trip to Japan and my next cooking lesson with airKitchen.

I had such fun time experiencing true Japanese cooking, culture, and food through airKitchen! airKitchen is a great way to stay at a Japanese's local's home and learn how to make simple, yet delicious beautiful Japanese dishes. It is a must for anyone visiting Japan!!!

We really enjoyed the whole traditional experience from the first meet up to the final goodbyes. Our host, Masako-san, was very lovely and generous. We love the udon and tempura making too! We didn't know udon was traditionally made that way. The traditional matcha drinking was an eye opening experience as well. All in all a very enjoyable experience. Will definitely go back again!
