Itinerary

Everyday Japanese comfort food with a charming local in her cozy Sapporo home, get a true glimpse into Japanese cuisine and culture! Step into Sakura's welcoming home for a private Japanese cooking class and discover the comfort of everyday Japanese home cooking. She lives in a peaceful residential area within a ten minute walk from the Higashi-Sapporo station. Relax over a welcome drink before joining Sakura in the kitchen where she will teach you how to prepare authentic, home-style Japanese dishes that are easy to replicate at home. You can expect to cook together for about 1- 1.5 hours before sitting down to enjoy the meal you helped prepare. Your menu may include dishes such as chikuzenni (chicken and vegetables stewed in soy and mirin), miso soup, dashimaki tamago (egg roll cooked with dashi stock), and onigiri (rice balls). It will conclude with a cup of freshly brewed tea. The menu may vary depending on the season and availability of fresh ingredients in the market!
