Absolutely grateful and very happy to have done the vegan cooking class with Makikoさん. She is such an informative, sweet and helpful teacher! From the very beginning, her pre-workshop communication was well-established and very clear. She always went beyond the service expectation! For example, she would provide me the travel directions from my hostel to her nearest train station, she would bring me to the local market and supermarket to point out various vegan ingredients and snacks, she always readily shared information and even gave little presents such as chopsticks and chopsticks holder! Her cooking skills are amazing too! I learnt so many new Japanese food recipes and what’s amazing is that she has made them very easy to follow. This class is absolutely worth the price! I would love to come back again when I have the chance!

Makiko was wonderful! It's obvious she puts a lot of care into the ingredients she uses (she even took my shopping for some afterwards, so I was able to see it up close). Her cooking is delicious and she carefully taught me how to follow through, as well as sent me the recipes afterwards. She lets you take home leftovers in your own bento box (it was so delicious I ended up taking 2 home), and is overall

Amazing experience! Makiko is such a soft and perfect host who receives you in her home. Everything will be personalised according to your taste. The food is delicious and you get to go away with bento boxes and nice chopsticks with stands. Makiko will also take you to a supermarket to find products if you want to! I would recommend this to anyone! Thank you again!

I had a amazing time cooking and learning with Makiko-san. I couldn't have asked for a better Host. She was so considerate and the food was so oishi (tasty). She gifted me a few homemade ingredients and we even went shopping afterwards and she showed me where to get the remaining ingredients to cook what i've learned myself. I can't really recommend her enough and I'm excited to try the recipes myself. Arigato gozaimasu

We really enjoyed our cooking class with Makiko, she is such a welcoming and wonderful person, going that extra mile. We would definitely recommend her class, where we learned a lot about Japanese vegan cooking and had interesting talks about Japans culture, too. The food simply tasted amazing, and we hope our paths cross again! Thank you, Makiko!

We had a really great time by and with Makiko! We prepared a lot of good food like dumplings, edamame rice, cabbage with tofu and some vegan nuggets and had some nice talkes during cooking. After that we got tea and a sweet treat for dessert! Everything was so yummy. We really had a great time :) We got the leftovers in bento boxes for tonight - so cool!! Thanks a lot Makiko, we will come back for more delicious food. Highly recommended!

We had the most brilliant afternoon, learning to cook the tastiest vegan Japanese food! Makiko is not only a superb cook and host but also a very patient and kind teacher. We felt incredibly welcome and couldn't imagine a more generous host. Makiko seemed to have thought of everything and even took the time to take us to a few shops afterwards to pick up some ingredients we knew we would struggle to find back home. Her cute flat is a Tokyo gem - small but so cosy and stylish, with lots of Japanese crafted objects to cook and eat with. We honestly can't recommend this cooking experience enough. Thank you Makiko!
