After spending out whole trip thinking we wouldn't we able to learn how to make sample food due to our lack of conversational Japanese, we finally found this place! We had a great time making the sample ramen. The staff were very friendly and helpful. They were also enthusiastic to talk about the different methods of sample food making and the history behind it. Easy to find and easily accessible. A highlight of the trip!

We had a young chap who spoke quite good English for a Japanese, to run through what we were supposed to do.
The whole process was very fun and it was amazing to see the other fake food items that the store makes too!
The only downside is finding this place, it is in a small and quiet neighbourhood in Tokyo. However it was also fun exploring the area once you're there.
Highly recommended, not only for families with young kids but adults as well!

What a special evening. The instructor was an eager young woman and the craft shop owners were present as well, and we had a friendly evening talking about the craft of ceramic repair, learning and talking about Tokyo and my travels. They were eager to impart their knowledge, and the atmosphere was casual and friendly. I recommended the class to an attendee of another workshop, and I've seen that she took this class as well. I'm hoping she enjoyed it as much as me.

Excellent choice of activities, it was easy enough I had 13 and 9 years with me, they did excellent job, I can't wait to take them back to USA and trick my friends offering Tempura at our house!...lol

Ever since seeing one of those gold-repaired tea bowls I wanted to try it, and this was a really fun morning class. It was a really 'local' experience as there were few neighborhood ladies doing crafts at the same time, and it was cool to explore the area around the studio. The teacher was super sweet, and can speak basic English. She even served sweets and coffee, a lovely bonus!

We booked the sundae workshop, and after completing it we realised we should of booked a full day and done all of them!
I booked this (female) for my partner and I to do, he wasnt looking forward to it but ending up having alot of fun.
The guy we had was fantastic, we took lots of photos, he explained everything perfectly.
It was alittle tricky to find, we did follow the directions but went too far - the place is part of a house, and there is a little sliding door where you need to go. So if you end up at a t-intersection after it says it is on the left hand side you have gone too far.
This time we Thank you for your visit.

And will it was good to arrived.
From July than tempura experience is done in the third workshop.

I was very impressed with his enthusiasm and professionalism in his work. Keep up the great work! I'll definitely attend the workshop again if I'm visiting Japan.

My 5 yr old did this and the tart keychain. Although he was too small to handle the piping 'gun', he really wanted to try it. The instructor did a great job in helping my son hold the gun and guide it while still allowing him to still feel like he did the piping! It's very similar to the tart making in that you pick 5 decorative items, pipe the cream then decorate!

一般の住宅街の中に工房はありました。大きな看板が目印になっていたので、場所を探すのに時間はかかりませんでした。
二人での参加でしたが、ラーメンとパフェクリップを作りました。
体験場所にはもう一組のグループが先に天ぷら作成の作業をしていました。
小さな工房でしたが、それぞれのグループが先生方と和気あいあいと作業を進めていました。
作業を進めていく中で、ラーメンは「ろう」、パフェは「ビニール樹脂」を材料に作成することを知りました。
それぞれの材料の個性を先生に丁寧に説明して頂き、複数人で参加する場合は、それぞれ違うものを作ったほうが色々な食品サンプル作りの過程を知ることができ良いと思います。実際に作る時も、失敗作の例や色々なサイズや色が異なるトッピングサンプルを事前に準備して頂いてたので、とても効率よく、かわいらしいクリップを失敗することなく作ることができました。
帰り際には丁寧に作品を箱に詰めていただけたので、私は海外に住んでいますが、長時間の飛行機移動でも崩れることはなかったです。
また、帰り際に食品サンプルの歴史や世界進出の難しさなどが簡単に説明された文書をもらいました。短い時間に、ただ作るだけではなくて、材料の個性やサンプル作りの歴史、世界進出の難しさを知れたのは、工房の先生方が事前にしっかり準備をして、体験者が楽しめるように尽力されているからこそだと思いました。
このアクティビティは子供大人関係なく楽しめると思います。
またベルトラ経由で予約、事前支払だったので、海外でよく経験する予約時間や会計でのトラブルなくスムーズに体験ができ安心しました。楽しい時間をありがとうございました。

メンマは長方形のものから作っていきます。
メンマの形を思い出しながら、もんだり、ねじったり、ひっぱったり。
気分はもういっぱしの職人です。( *´艸`)

A group of 5 of us did this unforgettable experience! Everything was perfect and the staff was extremely friendly! We were given great instruction and valuable information about sample food production and history. We were given a lot of control and freedom with our creations and never did we feel like we were being rushed. It was a truly enjoyable experience.
Our instructor was Kazuya Ito. He was great! And he has great English, especially since he told us he is self-taught from watching movies! Truly amazing!

Definitely recommended for families travelling to tokyo with young children. It was held in a cosy home environment, easy to find with instructions upon booking and kids got mostly hands on experience to make the plastic food samples. We picked the sundae and ramen but if I were to do it again will pick curry rice and tempura too..value for money for the experience. They made sure to pack the items probably before u left...nothing but praise for them!

It was held in a small workshop located in a residential area. In the workshop, 3 other families were creating ramen (Chinese noodle) and tempura. Our children were really excited. We made a reservation for the parfait-making plac. The instructor taught us very politely and we did not have to worry (As our child is an elementary school student, we worried she might have some difficulties making the parfait).
It was fun to see that the parfait slowly taking shape. Our child was also happy to see it. We had a great time as a family thanks to this experience. We would like to do this again. Next time we will try making the ramen and tempura.
