Handmade Udon Cooking Class in Tokyo with Michiko

Learn authentic Japanese home cooking from Michiko, a professional cooking teacher who has taught Japanese locals for years. Unlike a demonstration-style class, this is a hands-on experience where you prepare traditional dishes from scratch while learning the techniques, ingredients and cultural traditions behind them. Choose between two distinct experiences when booking: make handmade udon noodles from dough, including the traditional technique of stomping the dough, or prepare katsudon, one of Japan’s most popular comfort foods and a dish familiar to many anime fans. With a small-group setting, Michiko can provide personal guidance throughout the class. The experience is also family-friendly, making it a fun way for both adults and children to experience Japanese food culture in Tokyo.
