38-4 Fukakusa Watamorichō - Do you have a sweet tooth? Are you interested in Wagashi (Japanese sweets) that you might have seen in some Japanese Manga or Anime? Why don’t you join our cooking class while you are in Kyoto? You can have an interesting and unique experience with us in a house that has very authentic Japanese rooms.
First, you will relax in a traditional Japanese room. Second, you will prepare about 3 different types of Wagashi (Japanese sweets) by yourself or with your partner. Our instructors will demonstrate how to cook some dishes in front of you before you start preparing on your own. After cooking your own dishes, you and other participants will sit together and enjoy your lovely sweets and a cup of Macha in the very traditional Japanese room with a fantastic garden view. The classes are conducted entirely in English. All of our instructors are licensed guide interpreters, so all the participants will be able to clearly understand all the information covered in the class. This class allows for English and non-English speakers as well. We look forward to seeing all of you soon!
