Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Cooking Sun Tokyo, 18 Maya Shinanomachi II, Room No. 314, Shinano-machi, Shinjuku 160-0016 Tokyo Prefecture
All ingredients and supplies, an apron and a towel will be provided for you, so you don't have to worry about preparing anything. Your class will be a small group (limited to a maximum of 10 people), so you will never be a bystander.
Kaiseki Ryouri is a traditional Japanese multi-course meal that is composed of many different methods of cooking based on its specific rules. During this class, you will make use of various methods to complete your full-course lunch. The instructors are all friendly, English-speaking locals who are happy to assist you. They will share some tips and stories of each of the recipes and sometimes share some secret techniques, too. This cooking class will give you a homey atmosphere to cook in.
As Japanese always start with “Dashi”-making, each class will begin with the making of "Dashi," the fundamental soup stock of Japanese cooking. Your instructor will also explain about some of the typical Japanese seasonings which are frequently used.
Then, you will prepare 6-7 dishes learning classic and modern recipes, ways to present food, elaborate cuttings and unique Japanese ingredients. You'll also cook some beautiful, tender Wagyu beef.
After all of the cooking is finished, finally, it will be time to say 'Itadakimasu!'
Duration: 3 hours

The location was a little hard to find, as there was not much signage outside but we eventually found it. The class itself was taught by two main teachers and they were both fun, although Maiko really shined. We started with the dashi stock and created about 6 dishes. We really enjoyed our class and loved how the cooking was so simple but SO delicious.
This was my first cooking class ever and it was especially interesting because l love Japanese food but thought it was too hard to make myself with zero experience in making it. The staff were super nice and helpful and the class was small so everything went smoothly and we could get help if we needed it. I would highly recommend if you love to cook, or eat food, or like anything Japanese. It's an authentic experience and a must try!
Cooking Sun was perfect, we has such a fun group and an amazing time. The instructions were very easy to follow and the food was delicious! I wish we would have taken the class earlier in our trip as we also learned about Japanese culture and etiquette. If you have a morning to spare and want to be able to take some of Tokyo cooking home with you then take this class, you won't regret it!
This activity was really one of the highlights of our trip the host's introduction to Japanese food and kaseiki-style cooking was fun, delicious very delicious! And generous amounts of food! and a very reasonable price, especially in comparison to most other activities in Tokyo! We would highly recommend this to any foodies travelling to Tokyo.
Fun and organized class that had us cook 9 dishes from scratch in the span of under 3 hours. It honestly didn't feel that long of a class or that hard to cook all these dishes simultaneously, but I guess that's indicative of Instructor Aya's teaching ability :
Great class. As we cooked we, learned about the Japanese foods and culture. Food was delicious. Caution...google maps takes you to the right street but doesn't quite take you to the exact location of the class. You will be in a residential area. So, you might need to go up or down the street to find the cooking school. There is a sign on the building for the school.
