Chef Kumi was AMAZING! She carefully walked us through each step and paused throughout to see if we had questions or to check in on how our dishes were coming along. I enjoyed the pace of the class and also how she shared great cooking tips. I would absolutely recommend her class to others and have already begun sharing about this site with friends.

This was my first online cooking class experience ever, and it was so much fun! Not only did I learn about Japanese ingredients and cooking techniques, but there was fun and laughter as well. Chef Kumi is amazing and with you every step of the way! I really enjoyed the time we spent and will definitely be taking more of her classes.

Chef Kumi was great! She is a fantastic teacher and chef. The instructions were clearly laid out prior to cooking and during cooking any questions were addressed quickly and effectively. Her personality is so fun and makes the class very enjoyable.
