What You’ll Do

Knead, roll and cut udon noodles into two Japanese specialties.

With a culinary education that took root early in her mother’s home, Chef Kaori’s cooking pedigree dates back two generations to her grandmother’s ramen shop in Fukushima, Japan. Explore authentic Japanese cuisine and all the ingredients and techniques to preparing it in your kitchen.

Master the technique to preparing authentic homemade udon noodles from scratch, from mixing the dough, to boiling for the correct consistency, and finally combining them with other ingredients to create two iconic Japanese delicacies. Create a stock and deep-fry prawns for a tempura udon soup and select seasonal vegetables to sauté in a delicate yaki-udon. Chef Kaori will close the class with a striking green tea crème brulée.

Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer to enjoy during the class.

Chef Kaori was a really fun teacher. She is very knowledgeable of asian cuisine and has a passion for cooking. She has taught all ages of students including kids. I really enjoyed her Udon noodles soup that we made from scratch. The green tea creme brulee was also delicious.

Chef Karoi was a wonderful teacher at tonight's ramen class! We learned all about how to make the noodles and the process she went through to create the broth. Between the ramen and gyoza, we were stuffed by the end. We will definitely be taking what we learned and recreating the process at home in the future. So if you are interested in what it takes to make flavorful broth and delicious noodles, definitely check out this class. You won't be disappointed.

Chef Kaori was a great teacher! The ramen was delicious and, while it would have been fun to make the broth and pork, coming away with new skills was great. Thanks so much!

After paying for my partner and I to attend this cooking class in a professional kitchen with a professional chef, we were informed shortly before the class that the kitchen location had changed; not thinking much of it we headed to the address of the kitchen on the date of our class. We were both extremely uncomfortable when we pulled up to a residential home and immediately decided against attending. Not only is this completely unprofessional, but very disappointing as we paid over $100 for a nice evening in a real professional kitchen. We were not informed that we would be changing at the last minute and going to someone’s home we do not know. We would like a full refund because this is unacceptable.

My husband and I had a great time in Kaoris class learning to make ramen and gyoza. The pace of the class was good and the setting was very casual, felt like good old home cooking in the kitchen. We had a nice big bowl of ramen to eat in the end and got to snack on some yummy pork gyoza in between. Kaori was patient and friendly and open to answering questions as we moved along. Would definitely be interested in trying another class in the future with her.

I had a great time. Very relaxed and fun. I learned a lot. Realistically though I could not see myself cooking the whole meal. Way to much work. I would love to take another class from Kaori that was less labor intensive.

Took the miso ramen class with Chef Kaori, which was a lot of fun! Great beginners class to learn the basics of ramen and making noodles. It made me want to buy a pasta roller so I can make noodles at home all the time...

Chef Kaori's class gave me so many great tips and nuggets of wisdom. I am so excited to know how to make this wonderful dish. Would definitely recommend this clasd to any ramen lover. Simple enough for beginners but contains enough tips for more seasoned home cooks.

Thanks Chef Kaori for an informative, tasty, and intimate cooking experience! The class was very fun and accessible to novice ramen makers. My husband and I walked away very excited about making ramen on our own.
