• 5/5 from Viv (Mum), attended Jun 2023: Really great class. Very tasty and educational re learning about the medicinal food. Might need to get pots with rubber handles/or mittens (my tea towel caught a light from the flame under the pot). Also duck tape to tape any cords to the ground (prevent people from tripping over)
• 4/5 from Julie Wong, attended Jun 2023: A bit expensive. I picked up a couple of good ideas about what food to use. I would have liked to cook myself instead on a group basis. The soup did not have enough time to develop proper flavour

• 5/5 from Barbara Quinlan, attended May 2021: The Japanese Superfoods as Medicine hands-on cooking class was a superb, excellent experience. Absolutely chaotic and abuzz with Yoshiko bustling around keeping us on track, yelling out the 'darling's and the 'bloody' this or thats. All came together remarkably with so many delightful dishes. And more: The teacher claimed she learnt English in restaurant kitchens - hence the language. However, her organisation skills with different tables being nominated to prepare various dishes, individuals co-opted for individual tasks, swaps made when necessary to have ingredients ready on time (I julienned Daikon for the ginger soup and squeezed out soaked shiitaki mushrooms - juice for the soup, mushrooms sliced by others for the cauliflower rice). Cooking was done by teams as well as plenary sessions where we all watched. She also had a team of assistants, not for teaching, but for such as carrying foods to various teams or carrying out Bento boxes, food dishes, sliced cauli leaves or Nori sheets that were taken over by tables for sprinkling over dishes. So many, many dishes, with many as small as a 2-3 shot glass! Yoshiko kept a sharp eye on everything and everyone - very impressive. The tastes were wonderful.
• 5/5 from Belinda Wulf, attended Aug 2019: Great class! Very interactive. Yoshiko has great energy and very engaging. Delicious, easy to make recipes. Would definitely recommend

• 5/5 from Kathryn Oldcastle, attended Aug 2019: Yoshiko was amazing, and the class was hands on and practical. I will be making a number of dishes I learnt at home! I will be enrolling in more Japanese cooking classes with Yoshiko.
• 5/5 from Emma Hobday, attended Aug 2019: My husband and I really enjoyed this class, Yoshiko is very knowledgeable and has a great energy about her. The food was delicious and healthy and I feel like I am equiped to make these dishes at home!

• 5/5 from Miriam Stein, attended Jun 2019: Yoshiko's class was superb - exceeding my expectations! I feel inspired to cook regular healthy meals as well having learned some great easy remedies to cure everyday viruses. It was a real bonus to be able to buy many of the yummy organic ingredients after the class. Both Yoshiko and her lovely assistant were so generous, gracious and fun!
