What you can expect

  • Experience authentic Japanese soba making in a real handmade soba restaurant loved by local people in Sapporo. This is a private experience—not a tourist-style cooking class—where you'll learn traditional techniques from a professional soba artisan and enjoy freshly prepared tempura cooked by a Japanese washoku chef.

    Hokkaido is Japan's largest producer of buckwheat, making it the perfect place to discover authentic Japanese soba culture.

    Unlike many cooking classes, this experience takes place in an authentic soba restaurant that serves local customers every day. You'll learn how soba is made using traditional methods while discovering its history and cultural significance.

    Easy to combine with sightseeing in Sapporo

    The restaurant is within walking distance of one of Sapporo's most popular chocolate-themed attractions. You can easily visit the nearby attraction before or after your soba-making experience, making it convenient to combine authentic Japanese food culture with sightseeing in the same area.

    If you are already planning to visit this popular attraction, you can simply walk from there to your soba experience, enjoy handmade soba and freshly prepared tempura, and then continue exploring Sapporo.

    What you'll experience

    • Mix premium Hokkaido buckwheat flour
    • Knead and prepare the dough
    • Roll the dough by hand
    • Cut your own soba noodles with a traditional soba knife
    • Watch fresh tempura prepared by a Japanese washoku chef with over 10 years of experience
    • Enjoy your handmade soba together with freshly cooked tempura
    • Learn the proper Japanese way to eat soba
    • Discover why tempura and soba are a perfect combination
    • Finish your meal by tasting soba-yu, a unique Japanese tradition enjoyed after eating soba

    No cooking experience is required. Our instructor will guide you step by step, making this experience enjoyable for beginners, families, and international visitors.

    This is more than a cooking class—it's an opportunity to experience authentic Japanese food culture through the traditions, techniques, and hospitality of a real soba restaurant.
