体験名/Kyoto Sushi Trio: Wagyu Rolls, Nigiri & Temaki
Satoru and Akiko are great hosts. They made us feel very welcomed. They teach well and adapted the recipes to make sure we could cook the same at home. This was a first time for us cooking sushis and we loTved this experience! We had a great time and would recommend to anyone wanting to cook sushis. Thank you Satoru and Akiko for your warmth and kindness.

Authentic and Welcoming - A highlight!
This was the highlight of my most recent trip to Kyoto, as it was such a unique experience.
Welcomed into the home of a Tempura chef and his wife Satoru for a one on one cooking experience was just brilliant! Their hospitality was first class.
Step by step instructions with hands on experience we made (from scratch), a variety of delicious tempura vegetables (and a bonus treat of tempura Brie!), Miso soup and Onigiri.
Every mouthful was just so tasty and fresh.
Thank you so much to this wonderful couple for opening their home and sharing their knowledge on some traditional Japanese cooking.

About us
After graduating from Kyoto Culinary Institute, I gained experience as a vegetable wholesaler at the Kyoto Central Market and have worked in restaurants in Kyoto for over 25 years. I have lived in Arashiyama for 10 years and used to grow vegetables in the neighborhood. I am particular about ingredients in my cooking and will pass on my passion for making the most of local and seasonal vegetables.

I was born and raised in this area and still live locally. I love the nature here and am always healed. I also enjoy walking with my dog, Sasuke, in the nearby park. I especially love vegetables, and I try to eat a healthy diet by incorporating them into various dishes at home. This year marks my 10th year working as a home care worker. Through my work as a caregiver, I support the lives of many people and find it rewarding on a daily basis.
