3 Hours Washoku Cooking Class & Tea ceremony experience

• Mobile ticket • English language

Overview

The host's home is located in a quiet residential area. You can experience Japanese food as if you were staying with a Japanese family. The menu is Japanese home cooking, either “Oshizushi (pressed-sushi) Set”, “Seasonal Omotenashi Gozen (hospitality dish)” or "Sushi home party". After having fun cooking, you can enjoy a tasting in a traditional Japanese-style room with alcove. Don't worry—the table is sunken kotatsu-style, so you won't have to sit seiza-style. After your meal, enjoy the Japanese cultural experience of tea ceremony. The host's home is within 10-minute walk from Kintetsu Ikoma Station. Ikoma Station is easily accessible from Osaka and Kyoto. Why don't you try Japanese food experience in Nara, the ancient capital of Japan, where time passes slowly and nature abounds.
