Osaka Cooking Class
Two kinds of Ramen (Soysouce/Homemade Miso) and gyoza(Making skin), Japanese Sweets and Matcha(Tea ceremony)! one lesson per group (alone, with your parter, friends, family, etc.) (halal/vegan acceptable)

Kristina, Belarus

The cooking class my husband and I joined was unbelievably interesting. We made ramen (2 types), gyoza, strawberry daifuku. Keiko san explained every step of making dishes, provided additional information on the ingredients. We definitely gained a lot of knowledge about cooking Japanese food and the principle of tea ceremony. The cooking class itself was comfortable in a friendly atmosphere. I would definitely join Keiko san cooking classes again when I am back to Japan next time. 100% exceeded my expectations. どうもありがとうございます。

I took the Miso & Soy Sauce Ramen cooking class and had such a great time! Keiko is a wonderful teacher—she explained everything very clearly, making it easy to recreate both types of ramen at home. You'll absolutely love being able to cook authentic Japanese dishes yourself later on. Keiko also takes photos and videos during the class, which she shares with you afterward—a lovely bonus! I would absolutely recommend this class without hesitation.

Our cooking experience was great, we made two types of ramen, gyoza dumplings and mochi. Everything was prepared from precise directions to meet up in the spot and travel with Keiko to her home. All the equipment and ingredients were ready. We enjoyed the time that passed so quickly. Thank you, Keiko from Osaka.

Kei was a fantastic host! We learned so much about Japanese culture and cooking. She was so patient with my children and let them have a try at everything. Her cooking instructions were clear and her English was very good. Her home was also so welcoming. It felt like learning to cook with a family member. I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this cooking class! This was the highlight of our trip!

Our cooking experience with Keiko was the one of the highlights of our Japan trip. We not only learned to cook traditional Japanese food but we also learned the customs which, to us, was an integral part. The tea ceremony at the end of the session was invaluable. Keiko was warm, hospital, and very sweet. We are so grateful that she welcomed us into her home to not also teach us how to prepare and cook, but to also eat in the most authentic way. We are over the moon about this experience. Keiko is a well of knowledge. Highly recommend. We would definitely do another session with her when we come back to Japan. :)

Keiko’s Ramen & Gyoza Cooking Class is a must-try! The chef provides clear, patient guidance, making it easy to create authentic, restaurant-quality dishes. The ingredients are fresh, and the class offers great insights into Japanese cuisine. Plus, tasting your own handmade ramen and gyoza at the end is the best reward!

My Danielsson Oleary, United States of America

Keiko picked us up at the train station and took us into her home. Her love for cooking was immediately apparent when we entered her house. The house was very clean and welcoming. The first thing was having a nice cup of gen-maicha and discussing the menu together. We then proceeded to chopping stirring and mixing the ingredients to our delicious dinner. We are a family of four and everyone loved the experience, our youngest being 12 years old. This is a great experience to learn to cook with ingredients that are available to most outside Japan, and who are curious about making true Japanese dishes without having much experience in the kitchen. Anyone can make this food at home and impress your friends with your new cooking skills. The love for cooking, eating, and learning about new cultures is what brings us all together.

Charisma Buxton, United Kingdom

Cooking with Keiko was a delight! She invited us into her beautiful home and we made 4 dishes - pork gyoza, miso or soy ramen based on what we wanted to eat and pineapple mochi. To help the process go faster, she had pre-prepped the complex ingredients but explained how she made them. The food was delicious and we thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Would recommend if you are considering a Japanese cooking class.

I can't recommend Keiko enough, she really went above and beyond for us! She's warm, welcoming, and extremely accommodating. The food was absolutely delicious, and as someone who's not confident in the kitchen, she really put me at ease. She walked us through every step, explaining everything clearly. She also added in some fascinating teachings about Japanese words and culture. We left with our tummies full and an unforgettable experience. A highlight of our Japan trip. Thank you Keiko!

One of the best experiences we’ve had in Japan hands down. Keiko picked us up from the station and took us into her lovely home. We cooked gyoza and two different types of ramen as well as some homemade mochi! She even accommodated for my partner who does not eat meat. In addition to this, we were treated to some Genmaicha, home made lemonade and a tea ceremony to finish the dinner. She gave us each print outs of the recipes for what we prepared and even gave us additional information on preparing other things like miso paste. It’s worth saying that Keiko herself is just such a wonderfully kind person and this experience was worth every penny. She even dropped us back to the station at the end of the night. If you’re considering a cooking class in Osaka, please look past all others and pick this one, you won’t be disappointed!

We noticed right away her great personality sharing lots of insights into her Japanese life that you learn far more than just cooking. We had so much fun cooking and the result was honestly the best ramen we have had in Japan in the last three weeks. Hope many more people can enjoy and learn cooking Japanese food with Keiko! See you next time and thank you soo much!

Keiko is the best! She picked us up from the station that is easy to get to. She drove us to her beautiful home. She had prepared enough to be able to accomplish A LOT of cooking in a short period of time, but not enough that it didn't feel like we were cooking outselves. To be able to make 2 types of ramen, gyoza's, a dessert and explain how a tea ceremony occurs when done at someones home in less than 3 hours was incredible. Everyone who comes to Japan needs to do this to better understand the culture and to be able to bring home the knowledge to try to make these recipies at home. I can't wait to try to make these recipies when we get home. Dank je wel Keiko!

One of the best cooking classes I've had! Keiko is simply an amazing chef and teacher who really explains things in a detailed manner and in an easy way to understand. Also, her passion for cooking is contagious; I was fascinated by each step, and the fact I had her full attention and focus made the experience 10 times better. I was able to practice each step and gain confidence in the skills she passed. Really can't recommend this more, you'd have the best highlight in your trip as you're welcomed into Keiko's house which is warm, where she takes you on an authentic Japanese cooking experience. I can't wait to come back again and learn more about how to make more dishes from Keiko!

Keiko was amazing! Not just that we've learnt sooo delicious food to cook, but her welcoming warm way made this evening to an unforgettable experience. She pickes us up from the station and shared her own kitchen for 3 hours. We can't wait to show our friends at home, how to make a proper gyoza or ramen. She uses the best ingredients! Can answer all your food (and non-food) related questions. This cooking course worths every cent. We've made a couple of similar kind experiences, but this was the best. So much fun! She is amazing! Highly recommended!

Superbe cours de cuisine. Keiko est adorable. Les recettes sont délicieuses et variées. Pas beaucoup de cours proposent un menu de l’entrée au dessert, c’est vraiment un plus et pour un prix super abordable par rapport aux autres cours proposés sur le site. C’est pour cela qu’on a choisi son cours aussi!! Elle s’adapte aux besoins de chaque client et le contact est super bien passé. Elle prend des photos et explique bien comment procéder à chaque étape. Nous avons été conquis et recommandons les yeux fermés!

Jennifer, Australia

Today, my son and I had an unforgettable experience taking a cooking class in a charming Osaka home. Our instructor, Keiko, warmly welcomed us into her kitchen, creating a comfortable and authentic atmosphere. The class focused on ramen- yummo ikr! We learned the secrets behind creating two distinct ramen broths: rich and flavorful for one and a lighter, delicate flavour for the other. It was fascinating to see the different techniques used to achieve these unique taste profiles. But ramen wasn't all! We also got our hands dirty, making delicious gyoza dumplings. Keiko patiently guided us through the process, from folding the dough to pan-frying the dumplings to crispy perfection. The gyoza were the perfect complement to the ramen and a testament to her clear instruction. Following the savoury dishes, we delved into the serene world of the Japanese tea ceremony. Keiko expertly demonstrated the graceful movements and explained the significance behind each step. It was a calming and introspective experience, a perfect way to end our culinary journey. I forgot we also made the pineapple daifuku, which was heavenly. I think I can make it at this menu at home with practice. This cooking class was more than just learning recipes, it was a glimpse into Japanese culture and hospitality. Keiko was a fantastic instructor, knowledgeable, friendly, and always happy to answer our questions. We left feeling not only full of delicious food but also enriched with a newfound appreciation for Japanese cuisine. Highly recommend this class to anyone visiting Osaka who wants a unique and hands-on experience.

My sister and I recently attended a cooking class in Osaka with Keiko, preparing ramen, gyoza, and mochi, and it was an incredible experience. Despite not being fans of mochi, we were pleasantly surprised as it turned out to be the best we've ever tried. Keiko was amazing and extremely helpful, guiding us through each step with patience and expertise. The miso ramen was particularly delicious , and we really appreciated the option to choose a vegan version as well. The entire experience was fantastic, and I highly recommend this class to anyone interested in learning authentic Japanese cooking.

I'm really glad I decided to take this class. Keiko is an excellent teacher and host. She has a lovely home and getting to the meeting place from Central Osaka was very easy. The two Ramen, the gyoza, and the mochi we made were delicious and on top of a great class I also enjoyed a great meal. Keiko didn't use any ingredients that I won't be able to find in Ireland so I can look forwards to making these dishes when I'm back home. A brilliant time, I highly recommend this class.

Cooking class with Keiko was awesome! She is super hospitable and a very talented cook - she’s been teaching Japanese clients for 18 years and international clients for the last 2. She also speaks English well. The meeting point is easy to get to, directly north on the Midosuji line. She picked us up and was so welcoming and hospitable from the start. We made two types of ramen, gyoza, and strawberry daifuku. Both the soy sauce and the miso ramen were leagues better than a lot we had in Dotonburi - so simple but so rich in flavor. The miso paste we used was also homemade by Keiko, over the course of 10 months. We are excited to take all of these recipes home! For dinner, Keiko also shared a few other homemade concoctions to pair with everything we made, including a sweet lime juice, yuzu lemon pepper. We finished the dinner with a matcha tea ceremony. Book with confidence! We loved the entire experience.

My husband and two sons (ages 10 & 13) had a great experience cooking with Keiko! She was well prepared and we were truly impressed with how many dishes we were able to make in only 3 hours. I now understand why homemade ramen tastes so much better! Thanks, Keiko!

Our time with Keiko was perfect! From the moment we walked in her home, she made us feel welcome. Keiko taught us how to cook gyozas, ramen, and Japanese sweets like a pro. Plus, her homemade juice was delicious, and she even shared the recipe with us! The tea ceremony was a great bonus that gave us a taste of Japanese culture. Keiko's place was cozy and comfy, making the whole experience even better. If you're in Osaka and want to have a great time cooking some authentic Japanese food, this is the perfect opportunity! :)

My wife and I had a great time with Keiko in this cooking class! It was convenient to meet her at the train station, and from there she drove us a short distance to her cute, tidy home where she taught the class. Keiko was well-prepared and taught us how to make two kinds of ramen, gyoza, and a dessert, all of which was delicious and fun to make! Afterward, she treated us to a nice matcha tea ceremony, and we had a very pleasant conversation with her about our time in Japan so far and recommendations for things to do and foods to try while in Osaka. This was a highlight of our trip and we definitely recommend you book a class with Keiko!

We had a wonderful experience with Keiko, such a great host! The food was delicious and I feel confident that I will be able to cook it at home, although I need to practice my gyoza dough rolling skills. The tea ceremony at the end was lovely and I liked this matcha better than others I had tried before. She also was really interested in where we had gone in Japan so far and gave us ideas of places to visit in Osaka. It was so much fun meeting Keiko and the food was absolutely delicious, I highly recommend taking a class with her!

Cooking workshop with Keiko is definitely a highlight of our stay in Osaka and we are very happy we did it. Keiko is super lovely and cheerful. She met us at the subway station and drove us to her home where we cooked two types of ramen, gyoza, Japanese sweets and had a matcha tea ceremony. Within 3 hours we managed to prepare so varied and tasty dishes. Keiko also gave us so many details about the preparation of the ingredients we were using, shared recipes so that we can repeat them at home, explained many details about Japanese cuisine, sauces, prep meals, spices, marination and so much more. My partner is a cook, and I am an amateur at cooking, but we both enjoyed the cooking workshop with Keiko, as well as our talks which connected our cultures through food. Thank you so much, Keiko, for this amazing experience.

We had an absolutely wonderful time with Keiko! She was gracious and welcoming and helped us make a veritable feast - it was so delicious, we couldn't decide which ramen we liked best because they both tasted so good! And it was so lovely to enjoy the tea ceremony together after our sweets! Thank you Keiko for a lovely afternoon!

Keiko-san is a very kind and accomodating host. The dishes we cooked were very tasty and should be well reproducible back home. Since I travelled alone it even ended up a private lesson, which I really didn't expect. A very enjoyable experience and full recommendation for everyone interested in cooking asian or more specifically japanese cuisine.

I had a wonderful time at Keiko-san's! She was thoughtful, experienced and kind. There's lots to get through so she has preprepared most ingredients already, that way you can get straight into making the dishes. You'll receive a recipe during the session which covers the whole process so even if you do not get to do a particular part, you'll be able to recreate it at home. My favourite bit was sitting down together afterwards and eating all our yummy food we made (make sure you go with an empty stomach). It was really lovely as it allowed for us to talk more about Japanese food/culture. The tea ceremony was also a really lovely experience that I would recommend to anyone! Thank you again Keiko-san you were a wonderful host and I felt like I learnt a lot :)

Keiko was such a wonderful host! We had an incredible time learning how to make ramen, gyoza, Japanese sweets, and even a Japanese tea ceremony! We've done several cooking classes in other places, but this was our favorite cooking class! Keiko was so great teaching us how to prepare food, and we are excited to cook them at home as well! :) Also, Keiko was so kind to take videos and photos of us throughout the process. I truly appreciate it as there are not many photos of me, so it's a great souvenir along with the recipes Keiko shared. Thank you so much Keiko! We highly recommend anyone to take her class!

This was a very fun experience and it was so nice for Keiko to host us in her house. We chose the ramen and gyoza course as we have had this food a lot since being in Japan and would like to recreate it when we get back to UK. All the dishes were delicious and very filling! Keiko also picked us up from the station and dropped us back afterwards, which was helpful. We really enjoyed sharing the tea ceremony with her! She was a very warm and knowledgable host.
