The soba noodle making course was one of the top highlights to our Kyoto trip.

The instructor was very knowledgeable and we gained a great appreciation for the skill required to produce delicious soba noodles!

Make Fresh Soba the Traditional Way in Gion

Great Lesson

Reviewed by: Level 1 Soba Maker

It was really fun learning to make soba and unexpected that the chef translated the some instructions to English (I was expecting to just learn from context clues based on the description).

I would definitely go back to try making soba again (my noodles were on the short side... :/ ).

The place was not easy to find ... fortunately we could use google map. The lesson was conducted partially in English so that was very helpful. It’s really fun making Soba which we could taste after that. Worthwhile experience!

Fun/Educational Experience Well Worth the Cost

Reviewed by: Minh

It was a fun experience! Our teacher/chef did his best to help us out as the only English-speaking party in our class, and aside from some missed explanation in Japanese, the experience is well worth the cost. The fried soba "chips" at the end were delicious! Would sign up again and highly recommend it :)

Loved it!

Reviewed by: Monique_NZ

We loved making Soba noodles in Gion. We all took part in the step-by-step process of grinding the flour, making the dough, kneading, rolling, and cutting the noodles. The most impressive (and challenging) part was cutting the noodles - there was a lot of skill and patience required. Would definitely recommend!

Thank you for posting the review. Yes, cutting the noodles is the most challenging and fun part! We look forward to seeing you again.

We had a wonderful time making Soba!

The class was informative and the teacher provided good instruction on how to prepare the Soba dough and cut the noodles. They also took many photos for us which was very kind!

Afterwards, we were served a delicious meal of the soba we had prepared. It was an overall great experience!

The staff spoke English very well.

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Heather L

Fun and educational! Instructor spoke English as well as Japanese, but we had no problem understanding even without the translation (body and hand language was very clear). Small class size gives it a much more personal feel and gives you more opportunity for tips from the instructor. Very informative and easy to follow course with a very tasty end result! I would definitely recommend this course to anyone and can't wait to try making soba again soon!

Great experience

Reviewed by: Carmen

Overall a great experience! Would have been so much better if the instructor could explain more in English. I caught a few things in Japanese but when he explained in English, he did not repeat it. Otherwise it’s fun and interactive experience. After making soba they take some to make soba chips! We’ve never had (or heard) of it before so that was a treat!

Great experience!

Reviewed by: Jovian

Fun activity to do in Kyoto, from grinding the buckwheat to kneading and cutting the soba noodles. They then cooked the noodles for us to eat, and we could clearly taste the buckwheat in stark difference to the commercial tasteless noodles. Even though there was a language barrier, the instructor did quite well with her limited English and visual instructions to make sure we were on the right track. My wife and I had a great time and would recommend it to anyone!

大好評でした。

Reviewed by: rainy

年末も押し迫ったころ、中学生の甥と参加しました。
当日は満席で、外国人ツーリストもたくさんいて大盛況でした。
最初に職人の先生が前にでて手順を説明してくださり、そのあと参加者が同じようにつくっていきます。わかりにくいところは近くまできて教えてくれるので、初めての人でもちゃんと形になります。
出来上がるとお抹茶をたててくださるので、ひとつその場でいただきます。自分のつくった美しい上生菓子を本物のお抹茶でいただく体験に、男子中学生も大興奮でした。
残りの2つは家族へのお土産にして、お正月のお菓子に喜ばれました。

今回ひとつ手間取ったのが、予約番号を控えて行かなかったこと。
「バウチャーの印刷は不要」ということだったので、店頭で予約氏名だけを伝えたところ「予約番号のわかるものを見せて」と言われ焦りました。
PCから予約していたので、スマホにもメールや履歴がなく、ベルトラのマイページにたどりつくまでモタモタしました。
PCから予約の方は、バウチャーを印刷していくのがベストです!!

Fun time and change from temples!

Reviewed by: Lisa

We really enjoyed our cooking class. We were just the 2 of us with an instructor that spoke enough English to be understood. They also have written instruction with pictures to follow. Our noodles were really good: pounding them was interesting. They have already made broths but you get to combine them the way you want. We also got the recipes for the broths in an email later. We cooked our noodles, the pork and then assembled our bowl of ramen. It's also a great lunch and at a very good price.

和菓子作り体験

Reviewed by: K.M

朝一番のコースに娘と2名で申し込みました。
甘春堂に集合5分前に着くと、すでに一緒のコースの方達が集まってきており
先にトイレを済ますよう告げられて、エプロンを手渡され、2階の会場へ。
手を消毒した後、席について体験がスタート。

インストラクターの60代とおぼしき男性はとても感じが良く、「楕円形に形を整えて柿を作りますが、伸ばしすぎるとニンジンになりますので気を付けてくださいよ」などと軽いジョークを交えて、とてもわかりやすく教えてくれ、誰でも上手にできて、最後まで和やかな雰囲気でした。
4種類お菓子を作ったあと、3種類はきれいな箱に入れてお持ち帰り。
1つはお抹茶と一緒にいただいてお開きとなりました。
終わった後、1階のお店に降りると、かわいらしくてお土産になりそうなお菓子が沢山あり、ついつい買ってしまいました。

時間は1時間半までかからず、次のアクテビティーにもランチにも余裕がもて、とても良かったです。
季節ごとに作るお菓子が違うので次回もやってみたいと思っています。
