Traditional Japanese Sweets Making Experience in Arashiyama
So much fun!
Reviewed by: Meghan Caritativo
We had such an amazing time! The class was very therapeutic and even though we didn't speak Japanese, the instructor made it easy to follow. We were all able to make beautiful sweets and we shared a lot of laughs and smiles in the process. Note that the sweets are all filled with red bean, so if you're not a fan have someone in mind to give them to. They don't last very long though, so keep that in mind as well! If you don't speak Japanese I'd highly suggest going with friends since you'll be able to communicate with someone and figure the steps out together. This class definitely enhanced my trip to Japan and I highly recommend it!!

Make Fresh Soba the Traditional Way in Gion
Great experience
Reviewed by: Diane Kunimoto
I think why we enjoyed it so much is because of the teacher. He explained everything so clearly and concisely. If we were doing something wrong he explained how to do it right. Our son looked more like udon but hey it was our first time. You need to speak Japanese for this one to get the full experience. We did four "cultural experience" classes this time and this was my favorite.

Make Fresh Soba the Traditional Way in Gion
Fun Experience
Reviewed by: Pat
As english only speakers, the instructor was able to speak english to help us understand the process. The experience was very hands on from grinding the buckwheat into flour to making,rolling and cutting the dough. The instructor was very helpful. Understanding that his english was not as good as his Japanese (as the Japanese couple had a much longer explanation), we felt that he was very informative and gave us the information that was both interesting, informative with a good sense of humor that made the experience very fun.

Kyoto-Style Obanzai Healthy Vegetarian Cooking Lesson at a Machiya Townhouse
Beautiful food and hospitality
Reviewed by: Alan
While in Kyoto we attended this cookery class at the WAK building. Myself and my partner were fortunate enough to have the class to ourselves, and our teacher Mieko was friendly, patient and attentive as she explained the recipes. She also gave us an insight into traditional domestic architecture and the history of Japanese food, past and present. The food was delicious. We are both vegan and Mieko adjusted the class accordingly to suit our dietary requirements. It was a highlight of our holiday in Japan and we would highly recommend.

The Japanese sweets making is a fun experience. We get to experience how the Japanese make this traditional sweets. It's fun to shape the sweets by ourselves. We get to make 3 type of sweets.

Make Fresh Soba the Traditional Way in Gion
Great and unique experience, especially for couples
Reviewed by: Ynon
As most of the good things we did, my wife found this soba workshop and I booked it for the two of us. It is in Gion, right off the Kiyomizudera temple. It was a wonderful experience. 4 couples attended the workshop, 2 of them were Japanese. We started with grinding real soba with a grindstones, then the chef patiently demonstrated and helped us to make the soba noodles. It was very interesting and enjoyable and each couple had its own tools. I can't even explain what a refreshing change it was from the regular sightseeing. Finally the soba we've made was taken for cooking, and eventually we all got to sit and dine in the house, eating the soba noodles we made, grinding real wasabi roots - a wonderful meal we well.

Traditional Japanese Sweets Making Experience in Arashiyama
Great experience
Reviewed by: Liesbeth
It was a great experience. I followed the workshop with my mother, and there was also one other Japanese couple.
Although the explanation of the workshop itself was in Japanese, the sensei explained everything by hand. We got a piece of paper on which we had the information of the sweets in English (so that we could understand what we were going to make). We made 2 sugary flat sweets and afterwards, we made 3 different Japanese sweets: sakura, autumn leaf and one other (see pictures). When the sweets were made, we got a macha tea so that we could eat the last Japanese sweet we've made. I would definitely recommend this workshop, even if you don't understand Japanese.

興味はありつつ、今回初めて和菓子作りに挑戦しました。
作った和菓子は４つ、はじめに職人さんが作るそれぞれの和菓子の説明をしくれ、いざ本番。
ひとつひとつ参加しているみんなで足並みを揃えて、進んでいくのでお一人様でも安心でした。
めんぼうや三角形の棒状の道具やそのほかさまざまな道具を使い、いちょうや菊などのかたちに整えていくのはとても苦労しました。参加者は１つ作るのにも時間がかかるなか見本を披露してくれる職人さんは、参加者が１つ作る間に何個も何個も作ってしまうほどでした。
４つ目の作品は、作った後に抹茶と一緒にその場で味見することができました。
あっという間に１時間ほどの時間が経過してしまいました。
参加者は、５割日本人残り５割が海外からでした。海外の人と触れ合ういい機会にもなりました。

日本人の繊細さが分かる日本文化体験
Reviewed by: Misa
外国人の友達と息子と行きました。
英語で書かれた和菓子についての説明はもらえましたが、体験自体は英語の対応があるわけではなかったので、外国の友達にはちょっとわかりにくかったかもしれません。しかし、結局はスタッフの人のやることを見て真似する感じなので問題はないと思います。
１時間という体験時間や生もののため、計４つの種類の和菓子作りは１つずつサクサク進んで行きあっという間に終わりました。和菓子のベースは事前に作られたもので、とにかくその和菓子の生地を課題の形に整えていきました。思ったよりも難しく、前後左右３６０度の見た目にこだわる日本人の和菓子作りに外国人の友達は驚きと尊敬の念を表していました。
息子は１０歳ですが、手のひらを使って形を作るものには大人に比べ手が小さいため、難しかったようです。でも、自分で作ったものを食べれてとても満足していました。
和菓子は持ち帰れるのですが、夏は日持ちもしないし防腐剤もないので、その日のうちに食べる必要があり、祖母に持って帰りたいと息子は言いましたが、それは難しかったです。また、旅行中でしたので余計、暑い夏にそれを持ち歩くことが心配でした。

It was a little challenging finding the location for this class, so give yourself some extra time. The class was awesome, even though the teacher didn't speak much english. It was easy to follow along visually. The meal at the end of the class, to enjoy the noodles, was a great experience as well. I just wish I paid more attention though, because my first attempt at reproducing these noodles back at home did not come out quite as well, lol.

Fun sweets-making class!
Reviewed by: Heather
It was nice getting to make various traditional Japanese sweets. The instructor did a good job of explaining how to make the various pastries and you are able to make out what you need to do, even if you don't speak Japanese. It would have been fun to make the ingredients from scratch, but then the course would have been much longer, so all the main ingredient were pre-made for us. Our treats came out pretty good, but the only downside is that you have to eat then by the end of the following day, but ours made it another day in the fridge.
