Cooking Class: The Art of Japanese Bento

Perfection is key in this hands-on cooking class as Chefs Vivian and Michi teach you how to carefully craft Japanese bento boxes. 


You'll begin by preparing sticky and hearty beef gyoza dumplings full of cabbage, scallions and ginger, and a classic Japanese potato salad with refreshing cucumbers and dill. Then, you'll delicately prepare and plate a seasoned shio salmon with leafy bok choy and asparagus. Satisfy your sweet tooth with a traditional daifuku rice cake with red bean dessert.

My friends and I did this for my b-day. It was so fun, hands-on, and the food was AMAZING (we did the Mediterranean class w/ shrimp, paella, chicken and veggies, and tiramisu)! VIvian and Michi are fun, down to earth, and have a wealth of knowledge. Something unexpectedly great about these classes is meeting the chefs who have studied and lived all around the world. Highly recommend!
