Enjoyed the class, the teacher was pretty experienced and shared lot of insights into every ingredient. The venue was very convenient and easily accessible. Very good quality organic ingredients were used for the class. It was a very good learning experience. Please provide extra paper and pens to make notes while conducting the sessions

Yoshiko's enthusiasm for good food and cooking is infectious. I really enjoyed the class and will be using the techniques and recipes at home.

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.

Power of Miso Making and Beyond Cooking Class

All the staff and teacher was very helpful to assist, they made the day enjoyable for the kids. Even though they were reluctant to come because of their age but after coming my daughter loved it. My son just wanted to eat the sushi because he was hungry.

There was helpful hints that we didn't realise, for example the teacher said there is the rough side and smooth side of the Nori and which side is best to place the rice and the smoother side is for presentation.

The venue was big enough but hard to find parking.

The materials provide was not sufficient for 2 kids as I had to keeping asking for more rice and sesame.

The adult should be able to participate more and at the same time with the children for the price we paid for.

Overall 4 star for the course

Yoshiko is a very enthusiastic teacher who is very good at imparting her knowledge and
getting the members of the class to work together while making sure that all participants had a hand in producing the result.
The class was valuable in helping de-mystify the making of miso.
The resulting lunch wa "oishii katta desu"

Friendly staff that encouraged the children to participate and get there hands dirty. They learn some essential life skills while having a great time

Bridget Fair • Jul 2019

We attended Yoshiko’s family sushi making class and couldn’t have been happier with the experience. Yoshiko is a bubbly and enthusiastic teacher and makes sure every child gets involved. She had two lovely assistants to make sure the whole day ran smoothly. The ingredients were simple and delicious and the instructions were clear and easy to follow. We came home well and truly ready to make our own sushi. We would highly recommend this class to other families or as a special experience for a parent and child.

Penny Neale • Jul 2019

It was well organised and in a good venue. My grandson and I enjoyed it.

Fatima Ho • Jul 2019

Teacher Yoshiko is good. Teaching very clear and smooth. The only thing to improve is: each kid should have his own ingredients to use.

Justine Waters • Jul 2019

Yoshiko and her assistant were brilliant - learnt so much and loved the course. Highly recommended

Eileen Ngo • Jun 2019

Yoshiko was an excellent teacher which a great sense of humour which made the class even more enjoyable! It was really good value for money because we made a lot more dishes that I thought we would! Highly recommend!

Candice Bruce • Jun 2019

This was a great course - Yuchiko is really terrific - full of knowledge and a good communicator... it was fun and I think a turning point for me as far as food and health go

Miriam Stein • 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!

Ray Jones • Apr 2019

Fantastic cooking experience. A fun learning experience from start to finish. Healthy food that tastes amazing.
Yoshika is an informative, engaging teacher and Mia was wonderful keeping the class flowing. Would not hesitate to take another class with them!

Tony Jordan • Apr 2019

Yoshiko is a very vibrant, knowledgeable and giving lady. Her style of teaching and encouraging participants is unique. Her recipes are easy to follow and she offers for sale key ingredients such would normally be hard to find.

Her assistant Maya is the absolute foundation for each class..

The venue is acceptable but classes should be capped.. to many in a class means is harder to work safely.

Japanese Cooking Class (Beginner)

Teacher was very informative and detailed. Quality inputs on healthy ingredients. Ample handson and tasty healthy eating once cooked. Good venue. Parking took a while for first time. Suggesting Wilson parking near by Westfield. Mine required a full day as I took a basic full day basic intensive Japanese cooking. A must attend for a healthy eating. An excellent team.

Katie Thomson • Apr 2019

Very enjoyable class! Learnt so much about Japanese cooking and flavours. Would highly recommend, perfect for beginners.

Superfood Sushi Cooking Class

Yoshiko was a great and inspiring teacher. I took my ten year old son and she was inclusive with him and couple of other young participants. Everyone got involved and she helped us to understand a little more about the art of Sushi. We are both inspired to get rolling!

Superfood Gyoza Cooking Class

The Superfood Gyoza Cooking workshop was fun and informative.

I couldn't believe that you could cook so many different dishes in such a short time.

When I looked at the ingredients I wasn't sure that they would have much taste but they all tasted great and were very filling.

Yoshiko is a great teacher and she had us all engaged in the class at all times.

I would recommend the class to anyone that wants to learn more about healthy Japanese cooking or would just like a great time.

Very enjoyable. Beautiful healthy food to make and enjoy. Yoshiko was an engaging teacher and is very knowledgeable.

Eunice Jeong • Feb 2019

Yoshiko was very knowledgeable and engaging! My husband and I really enjoyed the course. There’s no free parking if you’re on a morning class so park at Westfield- it’s cheaper than street parking.

Japanese Cooking Class (Intermediate)

My Sushi loving daughter and I enjoyed a most enjoyable day learning how to make authentic sushi with Yoshiko. The venue was clean and modern and the ingredients provided were fresh and healthy. Yoshiko was delightful, constantly involving the kids in all aspects of the sushi making process then in a nice touch, turning the tables and getting the kids to teach the adults what they had learnt. The end result some yummy sushi, and some great skills to take home and share with my daughter for years to come. Highly recommend.

Francesco Feliziani • Jul 2018

The teacher is lovely :)
I can’t wait to cook again everything I’ve learned!

Gail Simon • Jun 2018

Japanese Cooking Class (Beginner)

Yoshiko was an excellent teacher.
The venue was good, clean and intimate for class.
Materials used were good clean and professional.
The class was worth the money.
I learnt a lot about digestive health which is the reason I attended.
Yoshiko class was very informative and I intend to do Class 2.

Stephanie Tang • Jun 2018

Learned lot of useful skills, just hope every student would have individual stove so that we can get our hands on from the beginning to the end, rather than each person only takes one part in the whole process.
