Discover one of Korea’s most popular street foods in this fun Korean cooking class in London. In this hands-on workshop, you'll learn how to make Kimbap — colourful Korean rice rolls filled with delicious vegetables and flavourful ingredients.

Your friendly teachers will guide you step-by-step through the process, making it easy and enjoyable even if you are completely new to cooking. Classes take place in a spacious, air-conditioned London studio with small group sizes, so you’ll receive plenty of personal guidance. On quieter weekdays, you may even enjoy a private class experience.

5/5 from Melody Cremer, attended Apr 2025: A brilliant class! Hannah and Simon were fantastic instructors. The class was a birthday surprise for my partner, who loved it. I am gluten intolerant, and they made sure I had gluten free soy sauce and were very knowledgeable on what I could and couldn't have. We learned about the history of Kimbap, and then made two different types of roll. Would definitely recommend!

Women-owned

At Hanna and Simon's Foodie Kitchen, we believe cooking is more than following recipes — it is a craft, a culture, and a shared experience.

Founded in London with a passion for precision and authenticity, we specialise in immersive Asian culinary workshops that combine traditional knowledge with hands-on learning.

From sushi masterclasses to Chinese tea ceremonies and artisan dessert experiences, every class is designed to give you more than just a finished dish. We teach you the “why” behind the technique — so you leave with confidence, not just instructions.

Precision.

Our sushi classes focus on technique, structure and presentation.

We guide you to create beautifully shaped rolls with professional standards — even as a beginner.

Culture.

Our tea and Matcha workshops explore centuries of history and philosophy, helping you understand the story behind what you taste.

Creativity.

Our dessert workshops celebrate colour, texture and joy — turning simple ingredients into stunning, handcrafted treats.

We keep our classes small to ensure personal guidance and a relaxed atmosphere. Whether you’re joining for a date night, birthday, team event or simply to learn something new, you’ll be welcomed into a calm and thoughtfully designed space.

Many of our weekday sessions feel almost like private classes — giving you time to ask questions and refine your skills.

Our Philosophy

Craft. Culture. Confidence.

We believe learning should feel rewarding, not rushed.

Beautiful, not complicated.

Professional, yet welcoming.

When you leave our studio, we want you to feel proud of what you’ve created — and confident enough to recreate it at home.

We look forward to welcoming you to Hanna and Simon's Foodie Kitchen.
