Are you looking for unique gifts or want to put an exciting twist on daily meals, school lunches, or office lunches? Come and learn how to make artistic bento boxes as we guide you through the process step-by-step and teach you the most favourite Japanese dishes in our shop!
This London cooking class will start with an introductory talk where you will learn everything from the history of bento box making to modern-day trends. Then, it'll be time to get hands-on with your own creations.
Our classes are held in small groups in our spacious air-conditioned shop, ensuring that you receive personalised attention. And if you book a weekday class during a less busy time, you may even have the chance to enjoy a one-on-one session with your teacher!
During this Japanese Bento Box Making class you'll learn how to:
Prepare plain rice (or onigiri).
Cook beef in the special sauce which is uniquely called Gyudong.
Dress them in an artistic bento box.
The class uses beef as the main ingredient.
Add-On Classes
All add-ons are in the same class. It is to save your time and make the class more fun. Please allow extra time, 30 minutes to 1 hour. You can always contact us before booking to find out more details.
If you would like to relax during the class, why not add some drinks at the same time? There are cocktails, both with alcohol or non-alcohol versions, bubble tea drinks, and classic tea to choose from. You can enjoy the drinks as well as learn the history behind them. Select them in the Add-On.
If you don't mind getting your hands dirty, the Tempura add-on is the one you must have. Learn to make tempura from raw prawns and vegetables, according to your diet. This gives you something extra to dress your bento box.
If you want to learn more dishes in the same class, there are a few authentic dishes to select in the add-on as well. They will certainly make the experience more enjoyable and unforgettable.
You can also learn how to sharpen your kitchen knives. Bring one in if safe to do so.
At the end of this cooking class, you will have gained some useful cooking knowledge and you'll have made your own bento box to enjoy.
If you're looking for some fun things to do in London with your friends and family, or if you're on the hunt for some birthday party, hen party, or team-building activities — your search ends here with this seriously fun Bento Box Making class!
