Taking Satoru's cooking class in Kyoto was an absolute highlight of my trip! We learned to make two types of ramen from scratch along with delicious gyozas, and the whole experience was hands-on, interactive, and full of laughs. Satoru made everything easy to follow while keeping the atmosphere light and super fun. Highly recommend this class for anyone looking for a memorable and tasty Kyoto experience!

We had a great experience!! Both a warm and cozy environment at the hosts house, and really, really delicious food… beyond expectation!! Can only super recommend it! Specially if you look for a real not so commercial and not crowded experience in Kyoto! Good to combine it with the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest Bamboo experience as it is close to it!

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.
