Japanese popular alcoholic drink must be Sake, or called Nihonshu, made from fermented rice. The foundation of good sake is quality rice, clean water, koji mold and yeast. Premium sake differentiates itself in quality of ingredients and production process, so that flavors ranges light and crisp to richer, fruity notes.
In this experience, you’ll make authentic Osaka-style takoyaki with a local guide and enjoy specially selected Japanese sake.
Takoyaki is one of Osaka’s most popular soul foods. Made with a savory dashi-based batter and octopus, these delicious balls are crispy on the outside and soft inside.

This isn’t just a cooking class. You’ll taste a variety of Japanese sake with your freshly made takoyaki and learn about Japanese food and sake culture. As a sake sommelier, your guide will help you discover your favorite sake, even if you’re new to sake.

★★★★★Our sake tasking and yakitori DIY experience with Momoko was marvelous! We learned so much about different kind of sake, and Momoko's instruction was very clear. Yakitori cooking was also fun, and we ended up with super delicious food to pari with all the sake. Highly recommend anyone who plan to visit Osaka to carve some time out and to learn sake and enjoy the cooking experience with Momoko!
