You can experience how to make Handmade Udon in the authentic Udon restaurant and enjoy the Udon you made after the class. You can also bring it back to your home if you want. Handmade udon made by ourselves is chewier and softer than udon sold in stores. Anybody who doesn’t have any skill for cooking can easily experience. Both kids and adults can enjoy the udon. We would like people from other countries to know one of the traditional Japanese food and share the joy of making it together. Our restaurant is in the Michelin guide. So after your class, our Udon chief will make Udon dish for you which tastes amazing! -Other things to note- •Please wear clothes you don't mind getting messy! •You need to be on time! (We will also operate regular customers for restaurant after your class.) •We shall not be responsible for any troubles. •We are not opened the class for one person (minimum from 2ppl).

Ramen and gyoza are some of the most popular foods in Japan, not only for natives, but for tourists as well. But sometimes these foods can be too heavy or not vegan- and halal-friendly. I think everyone should have a chance to enjoy Japanese cuisine, so I developed a healthy recipe compatible with vegan and halal diets. After meeting at Cora Coffee I, we'll move to my private kitchen. We'll start out our class with a lecture about Japanese cuisine and lifestyle. Then we'll start cooking two different kinds of ramen broth, along with ramen and gyoza made from all-natural ingredients and seasonings, using my original recipe, which is healthy and easy to recreate at home. Home cooking is not only centered on the happiness and health of the family, but is also nourishing and easy to prepare. Come experience the power of this tradition. Experience is the best souvenir. Other things to note All you need to bring is your appetite. Feel free to take as many photos and videos as you wish during the class. Let me know of any dietary restrictions in advance.
