★Reviews★・Cooking with Grandma was one of the highlights of my trip to Japan. Not only did I learn to prepare a delicious meal. I also learned some of the history behind th food and the traditions that make them an important part of Japanese culture. This class was absorlutely worth the time and money. I would highly recommend it. (October 2025, S.P.)
・We really loved the cooking class! It has been a highlight of our visit to Japan.
Thank you so much for having us and teaching us about "Washoku". It was very fun, and also very delicious to eat! You put a lot of effort into teaching us about the key ingredients like seasoning and the different varieties. Also, the tea ceremony is a very unique ceremony and it's good for us to understand the steps involved. Your instructions were really good and watching you do it first was super helpful.

I am Grandma Junko, born and raised in Nagoya.
I like cooking and teaching how to cook, especially Japanese food.
I have a cooking license.
I am a Confectionery Hygiene Master and a vegetable sommelier.
I have learned many recipes from my mother and my mother-in-law
and studied at cooking schools.
I opened a natural food shop about 50 years ago
and started a healthy cake and a natural yeast bread cooking class in 2002.
I had a pleasant time cooking together
with my son's host-mother in the USA.
This experience made me want foreigners to know
that the Japanese food, " Washoku" is tasty and healthy.
I welcome everyone.
