The local cuisine of Nagoya is unique. In Japan Nagoya’s local food is called “Nagoya Meshi” (名古屋めし).
Learn to cook using the local red Miso paste and make dishes such as red Miso Soup, and Miso Katsu (deep-fried pork cutlet with Miso sauce) with it. Make other Nagoya-style dishes such as Tebasaki (chicken wings), and Tenmusu (mini rice balls with shrimp Tempura) from scratch at a Japanese home.

Akiko’s love and excitement for cooking began as a child growing up in a suburb of Nagoya. By the time she was in high school, she could prepare her own bento box and she still has fond memories of Takoyaki, the crispy Octopus dumplings that were cooked in her home almost every day! She has been cooking for almost 40 years now and it is the one thing that truly keeps her happy.
Akiko is thrilled about the opportunity to share specialties from Nagoya as a lot of people don’t know how to cook Nagoya-style food. Because of this, many Nagoyans themselves eat their local specialties at restaurants.
I really enjoyed the experience. Akiko san is really good and efficient.
We had such an amazing experience! Thank you for teaching us so much about the food, the ingredients and how to prepare it. And we really enjoyed the conversation with you and your family.
