We had a really good time with Hanna and Simon in this cooking class.
Now we realise it takes so much efforts to make the Japanese curry.
Simon made the class really interesting and explained every step very clearly.
The result is very delicious. We also learned to make artistic Bento. It is very interesting.

I bought the katsu curry class for my partner's birthday and it was brilliant. Simon and Hanna were both so friendly, helpful and informative. We learned a lot about the history of the dish as well as how to prepare it step by step, and we came away feeling confident about making it at home, which is exactly what you want from a cooking class! I'm vegan and my partner eats meat and they were super helpful in guiding us through the different steps for each variation. Also they have some great produce on sale – I can't wait to try the homemade crispy chili oil :) Thank you Simon and Hanna! We'll definitely be back again.
