Japanese Bento Box Cooking Class in Gold Coast
This hands-on Japanese cooking class is perfect for beginners who want to experience the joy of creating a traditional bento box from scratch.
Join Master Japanese Chef Keita, a professional chef with 18 years of culinary experience, and learn a little bit of everything about Japanese home-style cuisine — from crispy karaage to delicate agedashi tofu.
A vegetarian option is also available.
This class is perfect for beginners in Japanese cooking, as we’ll be using five essential Japanese ingredients —
soy sauce, cooking sake, mirin, miso, and Japanese dashi soup stock.
These ingredients are the foundation of Japanese cuisine and are used in many traditional dishes.
During the class, you’ll make and enjoy your own bento, then take another home to share with your family or friends.
You’ll also take home authentic recipes, essential techniques, and tips on where to buy the best Japanese ingredients and brands.
Private class information:
We also offer private bento classes where Chef Keita can come to your home.
A travel fee applies (Gold Coast $50, Brisbane $60–70).
Venue hire is also available upon request, and smaller groups are welcome — just contact us to check availability.
