What's unique about this experience is that by learning the differences between the various ramen (noodles, broth, etc.) across Japan, you can also use it as a ramen guide when traveling around Japan. Japanese people are particular about everything and turn it into a unique Japanese food culture. While making ramen and gyoza together, you can learn about the diversity of the culture. This time, we will make miso ramen with broth made from "kelp" and "chicken" or "scallops," which are the basic ingredients of Japanese broth. For vegans, we will make miso ramen with broth made from "kelp" and "vegetables." In addition, the Japanese-style house will allow various travel groups, from groups of adults to families with children, to enjoy themselves in a relaxed atmosphere.

Ramen and Gyoza.
Great class on history and the making of Ramen and Goyza. The instructor, chef was very good at explaining the entire process. Gave a great history about both dishes, their creation and how to prepare them. It was very clear and the setting was very very good. Highly recommended worth the effort to get there and money spent.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your wonderful comments and high ratings. I’d be happy if this became one of your fond memories from your trip to Japan. Although, I would’ve been even happier if you’d mentioned that you laughed a lot… Just kidding. Please be sure to give it a try when you get home. You’re welcome to send me photos, but just the best one will do.

Amazing cooking experience!
We really enjoyed this cooking experience, our guides were very friendly and knowledgeable. Shoji is an amazing cook! The gyoza and ramen were delicious!
Response from the operator: I'm incredibly happy to receive such generous praise. Please do try making it at home!

Fantastic experience.
We were two families with three kids, 9, 10 and 11 all from Australia. One vegetarian in our group. They had an English translator but the instructor also spoke some English. The class was fun, easy and not complicated. We had lots to eat and the recipe is sent to you. We did Gyoza and Ramen making. I highly recommend this class.
Response from the operator: Coincidentally, the other group that day was also from Australia, and they were a wonderful group. I hope this peaceful world, filled with such wonderful coincidences, continues. It was a very enjoyable day for me too. I'm glad if you enjoyed it. Please try making dumplings or ramen when you get home. Many guests send me photos of their homemade versions, but just the best one is fine!

We had an amazing...
We had an amazing experience! The food was delicious and the hosts were so lovely. It was an amazing way to enjoy Japanese food (and learn more about it through a brief lesson) and drink some delicious sake. Visiting Tokyo can be overwhelming, but this experience helped to relax us during our trip.
Response from the operator: I'm so glad you enjoyed your experience at Kujo Tokyo. Please do try making ramen and gyoza when you get home! However, when you send me photos, please only send the best one, as I asked you to at the end of the experience. I'd be overwhelmed if you sent me a hundred!

Gyoza and ramen making experience
So enjoyed this experience. The guides were amazing and explained everything so clearly and were so happy we now know how to make proper gyoza and ramen when we get home! We’d booked to do the class a few days earlier but my daughter couldn’t attend as she was unwell, luckily our teachers suggested that we both come back a few days later so she could take part and I’m so grateful they did. Thank you so much 😊
Response from the operator: I'm so glad your daughter is feeling better and was able to join us. And she even got some lovely nail art done. Please be sure to send us a photo if you try making it at home. I'd also love to hear what the family members who couldn't make it this time thought...

Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo cost?
+
Prices start at ¥13,000 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo take?
+
Plan for about 1.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 67 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 69 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 1.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo?
+
Around 24 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 1.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Shinjuku: Izakaya Food Tour (3-4 Stops, 14+ Tastings), Matcha Making Class in Tokyo with Authentic Japanese Sweets Set, Sushi Making Tokyo Roll and Authentic Japanese Sushi Class. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Ramen and Gyoza Cooking Class in Tokyo?
+
