Hi, I'm Aki! I'm a Japanese mom who loves cooking and meeting people from around the world. As a former backpacker and mother of three, I enjoy sharing Japanese culture in a warm and personal way.
In this class, I’ll show you how to make ramen and gyoza from scratch using fresh, natural ingredients—no MSG or artificial flavorings. We’ll knead the noodles, prepare a rich broth, and create delicious homemade dumplings together.
Think of me as your “Tokyo mom”—here to guide you, cook with you, and help you feel right at home.
If you have any dietary needs—such as food allergies, or vegan or halal preferences—please mention them when booking. While I’ll do my best to adjust the ingredients, please note that I may not be able to accommodate all requests.

Great cooking experience in Tokyo with Aki! We had the pleasure of attending a 3 hour cooking class in Tokyo and it was an absolute highlight of our trip! Our hostess, the wonderful Aki, led us through the course with a lot of patience and charm. We have learned to prepare two fantastic Japanese dishes: * Gyoza (Japanese pasta): Aki showed us all the tricks to prepare the filling perfectly and to artfully fold the pastry. * Ramen: We have prepared a delicious ramen broth and all the necessary side dishes. The atmosphere was very pleasant and casual from start to finish. You immediately felt comfortable and had a lot of fun cooking together. It was a great experience to stand in Aki's kitchen with friends. Best of all: The food was extremely delicious in the end! We were incredibly proud of our homemade dishes. Conclusion: The cooking class with Aki was not only informative, but also a great culinary and social experience. We would repeat this course at any time and can highly recommend it to any Tokyo visitor who wants to experience authentic Japanese cuisine in a relaxed environment!

This 2.5 hour cooking and eating experience was led by Aki, our wonderful teacher! In excellent English, Aki guided us in making delicious ramen dishes (one meat and one vegetarian to accommodate different dietary needs in the family) and gyoza (also doing meat and vegetarian options). We made our noodles from scratch and learned about umami ingredients and where bonita flakes come from! In a beautiful space, we enjoyed eating our creations at a lovely table. It was delicious!!! This is an opportunity to learn about Japanese food, appreciate the work that goes into making these classic dishes and of course enjoy eating some delicious food. The conversation with Aki was also very enjoyable! Highly recommend!!!

Aki was such a warm and welcoming host! Thank you so much to her for creating a special experience for my family, and for being very accommodating of vegetarian dietary restrictions. Easy to find location (she sent a video to show how to enter the building) and she responded quickly day of when we had a question before the class. Easily one of the best experiences I’ve had travelling and I’d strongly recommend it for all skill levels. I can’t wait to remake the ramen and gyoza when I get home!

We all cooked a beautifully prepared ramen and gyoza meal with our family. You’ll do everything from making the hand-cut ramen noodles from scratch, hand-folding your very own gyoza (call ahead if there’s a vegetarian in your group and Aki will make sure they’re very well looked after) to stirring up a delicious stock and assembling your own ramen bowl with fresh toppings. Total highlight was crisping the pork with a blowtorch. This experience is perfect for both the accomplished home-cook and the complete beginner, and everyone in between!
