First I explain a little about what is special about “Akahada-yaki”. Then I hand over the raw clay to guests for appreciation and touching.Imagine this clay will be given life and become a work in your daily life! Have in your mind a image of your own design. Eg. If you participate with your partner, making same teacups for each other might be a memorable experience! I will also advise for your design from easiness of making or solidity in use. When design is finished, then we start building and shaping by wheel throwing. (See my demonstration!) It’s really a fun to turn a wheel!

Let's hike a beautiful unknown way to Fushimi Inari shrine, inside a big mountain chatting about Japanese philosophy Shintoism and a well-known religion Zen Buddhism. I'm happy to answer any quesions about Japan as a local who knows positive sides & negative sides since I was born here. There are so many paths including a dangerous way to higher sites. Nowadays the main roads are extremely crowded and have no peace, although it is a spiritual place. I will show you a secret path with bamboos at the backside of the shrine. In other places, bamboo streets are a famous Japanese symbol that are full of tourists. But here I can show you that it is not like that. Fushimi Inari shrine had been a silent and calm place for many years until it became as famous as it is today. But there is still some territory that has not yet been discovered by tourists because it is not easy to find it by them and once you got lost there, it would be hard to come back. We'll take such a silent path. If you have a request for your most convenient time or date, feel free to ask me to adjust my schedule. I'll flexibly fit to your schedule. Any requests on short notice are welcome too. Other things to note 1. I recommend you have a drink before starting and wear comfortable walking shoes. 2. There are steps on the way up & down. 3. Relieve yourself beforehand since there aren't bathrooms till come back

Comeremos en Shinsekai, mi lugar favorito de Osaka y después iremos al corazón de la cultura popular, Nippon-bashi y Namba. Atravesaremos Dotonbori y terminaremos en Shinsaibashi y Amemura, barrios alternativos de Osaka. *Nota* Pueden cambiar Namba por Umeda o el Castillo de Osaka. En el caso de Umeda, moderna y vibrante, es donde nace una de las historias más famosas de Osaka y el teatro japonés: Los amantes suicidas de Sonezaki. De ir al Castillo de Osaka, nos adentramos en los terrenos de lo que alguna vez fue el símbolo de la unificación del país mientras les cuento chismes samuráis. Durante nuestro recorrido, les tomaré fotos con mi cámara para que recuerden su viaje y que ustedes son lo mejor de Osaka. 「Escríbeme si la experiencia no está disponible」

Ramen and gyoza are some of the most popular foods in Japan, not only for natives, but for tourists as well. But sometimes these foods can be too heavy or not vegan- and halal-friendly. I think everyone should have a chance to enjoy Japanese cuisine, so I developed a healthy recipe compatible with vegan and halal diets. After meeting at Cora Coffee I, we'll move to my private kitchen. We'll start out our class with a lecture about Japanese cuisine and lifestyle. Then we'll start cooking two different kinds of ramen broth, along with ramen and gyoza made from all-natural ingredients and seasonings, using my original recipe, which is healthy and easy to recreate at home. Home cooking is not only centered on the happiness and health of the family, but is also nourishing and easy to prepare. Come experience the power of this tradition. Experience is the best souvenir. Other things to note All you need to bring is your appetite. Feel free to take as many photos and videos as you wish during the class. Let me know of any dietary restrictions in advance.

You can experience how to make Handmade Udon in the authentic Udon restaurant and enjoy the Udon you made after the class. You can also bring it back to your home if you want. Handmade udon made by ourselves is chewier and softer than udon sold in stores. Anybody who doesn’t have any skill for cooking can easily experience. Both kids and adults can enjoy the udon. We would like people from other countries to know one of the traditional Japanese food and share the joy of making it together. Our restaurant is in the Michelin guide. So after your class, our Udon chief will make Udon dish for you which tastes amazing! -Other things to note- •Please wear clothes you don't mind getting messy! •You need to be on time! (We will also operate regular customers for restaurant after your class.) •We shall not be responsible for any troubles. •We are not opened the class for one person (minimum from 2ppl). Please contact us before booking if you wish to join our class alone. We can advise another session that already booked. •There is possibility to you have another group in the same session.
