A Warm & Comforting Japanese Cooking Experience
There is something deeply satisfying about katsu curry — crispy coating, tender filling, rich aromatic sauce poured generously over rice.
In this relaxed, small-group Japanese cooking class in London, your friendly and experienced teacher will guide you step by step through the entire process. You’ll learn not just how to cook it, but why certain ingredients are used and how to balance flavour properly.
Don’t worry if you’re new to cooking — we support you throughout. Classes are held in our spacious, air-conditioned studio, and weekday sessions are often quieter, sometimes even private.
It’s hands-on, welcoming, and full of comforting aromas.
In This Class, You Will Learn To:
  • Learn the essential knife skills
  • Select the meat to ensure the taste
  • Prepare and bread your katsu properly for maximum crispiness
  • Cook the cutlet to keep it juicy inside
  • Build a rich, fragrant Japanese curry sauce
  • Understand how curry blocks work and how to enhance them
  • Plate your dish beautifully
By the end of the session, you’ll sit down to enjoy your handmade katsu curry — crispy, golden and deeply satisfying.
And yes… it tastes even better when you’ve made it yourself.

Recent reviews of Japanese Cooking Class: Chicken Katsu Curry

  • 5/5 from Alex Brown, attended Aug 2026: The teacher was lovely, very chatty, told us a lot about the history. Maybe we could have more condensed version but it was still really interesting to learn the origins of the dish! The food was also really good in the end, he had prepared enough Blue Peter style for us to try all the steps.
  • 5/5 from Oluwaseun Lottu, attended Feb 2026: Move over, Jamie Oliver! I had such a blast at this Chicken Katsu Curry class. If you’re worried about it being complicated, don’t be, the whole experience was incredibly fun and easy to follow. Our teacher was absolutely amazing and funny, keeping the energy high and the instructions clear. It felt less like a formal lesson and more like hanging out with a pro who really knows their stuff. As for the result? The food was excellent. Honestly, the crunch on my chicken was so perfect that I think Jamie Oliver has some serious competition now! 10/10 would recommend to anyone who wants a great meal and a great time. PS I learnt to write some Mandarin letters lol

  • 5/5 from George Westwell, attended Aug 2023: Great class! The teacher was friendly and very helpful, explaining each task and the history of the dish. The food I made turned out very well and was delicious!
  • 5/5 from Luna, attended Jul 2023: 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.
  • 5/5 from Emma Garland, attended Feb 2023: 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.

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.
