Activity
Let's cook Japanese homestyle cooking at an ordinary home in Miyama, Kyoto!
Cooking activities are available in Miyama in Kyoto, known for Miyama's thatched-roof village (Kayabuki no Sato) where houses with thatched roofs stand side by side.
Taste the flavor of Japanese home cooking
We collaborate with locals to make home-cooked dishes "just like grandma used to make" rather than restaurant menu items.
You can also learn some cooking tips.
Japanese home-style dishes such as Temari-zushi (ball-shaped sushi) and Tamagoyaki (Japanese Rolled Omelette) are prepared.
Enjoy chatting with the locals while trying the dishes you made!
This experience is perfect for those who want to enjoy not only sightseeing but also interacting with locals while traveling.
An English interpreter is available as an option.
Recommended for those who enjoy meeting the locals
