Hi, I’m Aki—your Tokyo mom for the day.
Join a warm, home-style cooking experience where you’ll make ramen and gyoza from scratch in a small, friendly group.
This is more than a cooking class. It’s a chance to slow down, cook together, and share a genuine moment in Tokyo. I’ll guide you step by step—from kneading noodles to preparing a rich, comforting broth and handmade dumplings.
Many guests say it feels like visiting a local home rather than joining a typical class.
As a former backpacker and mother of three, I love connecting with people from around the world and sharing everyday Japanese food culture in a personal way.
Whether you’re visiting as a couple, with family, or with friends, you’ll feel relaxed and welcome here.

You’ll make ramen and gyoza from scratch in a small, hands-on group. Together, we’ll knead and cut your own noodles and learn how to wrap gyoza dumplings—one of the most fun and popular parts of the experience. You’ll also learn how to cook them to a perfect crispy finish, a technique many guests find especially useful and rewarding. Using natural ingredients—no MSG or artificial flavorings—you’ll prepare a rich and comforting broth and explore Japanese umami through katsuobushi (bonito flakes), kombu (kelp), and shiitake mushrooms, discovering how simple elements create deep, layered flavors. The ramen features a rich base made with chicken and pork, enhanced with the deep umami of katsuobushi—bringing a true taste of Japanese home cooking. Throughout the experience, I’ll guide you step by step in a relaxed, home-style atmosphere, so even beginners can feel comfortable and enjoy cooking. By the end, you won’t just have a bowl of ramen—you’ll also enjoy freshly made gyoza and a memorable experience of cooking, sharing, and connecting in Tokyo. A vegan option is available upon request.

Great way to learn authentic Japanese Ramen and Dumplings cooking cuisine. Instructor was patient and made the experience enjoyable. Food and environment were outstanding. Highly recommend this activity if you are visiting Tokyo.

This was such a great activity learning to make a couple of traditional foods from scratch. Aki had everything organized ready to go but the hands on were ours. She also followed up with written recipes and photos of the event

The best event we did in our 2 weeks in Japan. So much fun. Aki and her associate are so kind and helpful. We not only made our own ramen, but also gyoza. We, as the cooks, followed her instructions for the measurements and created the GREAT meal we enjoyed together. We learned how to properly fold & stuff the gyoza, roll out and cut our own noodles, cook them al dente, sear the pork shoulder, and fine tune our own creations. This was a blast. Aki sent us a load of photos and videos afterwards that we are still enjoying. This is a 10/10 experience.

Loved this class! Our group ranged in age from 10 years old to 75 and everyone enjoyed it. There was lots of opportunity for hands-on cooking and also time to enjoy our creation! The class was located in Shinjuku making it easy to continue exploring sights after this ended. Thank you, Aki!

We were 3 and were very lucky to have Aki to ourselves!! Aki speaks very good English and his explanations are simple and effective. His good mood puts him at ease right away! The apartment is very nice and bright. We loved learning how to make our own soba and gyoza (after several searches of cooking workshops, it is the only one to offer the making of soba from A to Z, the other workshops offering soba already ready). So yes it is more expensive than elsewhere but the quality of the products and instructions is there. Of course, the tasting is a huge success and we find it a little hard to believe that we prepared all this. I can only recommend the Aki courses to whom I suggested to offer for sale the necessary equipment for the preparation of soba (knife, board and roller) because you can not find in Tokyo in small format like those used during the course (even in Kappabashi Street where I went, in vain. Because let’s be honest, we all want to remake the recipe once we get home!

Lovely time with a small group making ramen - including instructions on how to make the broth and the noodles from scratch. Aki was a very talented teacher. Well worth your time and the fees!

I had a wonderful time with host Aki, who really knows how to put together a delicious meal and impart that knowledge to those around her. I had a Ramen Noodle class with Aki, joining up with two German travellers, and together we had a lot of fun putting the meal together as a group. The lesson was informative, but at the same time enjoyable and memorable. The only thing that was better than learning to make ramen noodles was getting to eat it at the end! Highly recommended.

Fun and informative time making Ramen and gyoza. Everyone loved it especially my kids (10 and 12). Everything tasted great! She was able to make it all Vegan for us. At the end she showed us how to make paper cranes. Very cute!

Aki was very knowledgeable on the ingredients and techniques, she was a wonderful host. The food we cooked was delicious. We got to make the noodles, fold the gyoza, build the broth all from scratch. I would highly recommend this class for anyone interested in ramen/gyoza, cooking in general or just having a fun couple hours and learning a new skill! Huge thanks to Aki and Yumi for having us, we will definitely be making this food again and hope to visit Japan again soon and take another class!

This was an amazing experience. It’s was a small class and very personal. Our kids enjoyed the entire process of making gyoza and ramen, all from scratch. One son has an allergy and there was excellent communication to accommodate that. Highly recommended!
