Top 10 Classes & Workshops in Ochanomizu / Akihabara / Kanda, Kanto

May 19, 2021 Vivienne Hutton

Tradition collides with pop culture in Tokyo, where you can reverently wander ancient temples before rocking out at a karaoke bar. Wake up before the sun to catch the lively fish auction at the Tsukiji Market, then refresh with a walk beneath the cherry blossom trees that line the Sumida River. Spend some time in the beautiful East Gardens of the Imperial Palace, then brush up on your Japanese history at the Edo-Tokyo Museum. Don’t forget to eat as much sushi, udon noodles, and wagashi (Japanese sweets) as your belly can handle.

My daughter and I wanted to try cooking Japanese cuisine while in Tokyo and were told about Buddha Bellies. Unfortunately, we visited Japan during the recent typhoon which caused us to miss our scheduled date. Our gracious hosts allowed us to join another class and they honored our dish choice. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. Our Sukiyaki was amazing and we also got to make Udon noodles. It was fun meeting the other guests and hearing of their travels. We even received a great recommendation for buying Waygu beef in the San Francisco area. Great outing. Highly recommend.

It takes a pretty remarkable experience for me to take to my keyboard, but this class definitely qualifies. Ayuko is the most delightful host, and her Sushi Class was among one of the best cooking lessons I have taken. My partner is a professional chef, and he too had many takeaways from our lesson. From the moment we met Ayuko at Yushima station we knew were in good hands. I honestly can not recommend this experience enough. If you are in Tokyo, and are curious to learn more about sushi, this class should be on your must-do list.
