Meet Your Host, Miyuki
Sharing Japanese Food, Culture and Hospitality
Hi, I'm Miyuki, a cooking instructor, food coordinator, and the owner of a Japanese cooking school in Tokyo.
Before starting my cooking school, I worked for a major Japanese food company, developing products and recipes for Japanese foods.
For nearly 10 years, I have been teaching Japanese home cooking to both Japanese and international guests. Together with our instructors, we have delivered more than 4,000 cooking lessons.
Today, I welcome guests into my home kitchen to share not only recipes, but also the traditions, hospitality, and everyday food culture that make Japanese cuisine so special.

WHEN SHOULD I BOOK THE CLASS ?
I recommend reserving as soon as you have your travel dates. In-person classes are only 5 guests and we have cooking class for Japanese, so availability may be limited.

We do our best to accommodate food allergies and dietary restrictions whenever possible. Please inform us of any dietary requirements at least 7 days before the class, as ingredient preparation and menu adjustments may be required. However, as this is a shared kitchen environment, we cannot guarantee a completely allergen-free space or prevent all cross-contamination. Depending on the severity of the allergy or the complexity of the required preparation, we may not be able to accommodate certain requests for safety and operational reasons. Additional charges may also apply for special ingredient purchases or separate preparation. Thank you for your understanding.
