Reviews

This experience was an absolute highlight of my trip. I joined a sake tasting and takoyaki-making session led by Momo, and it exceeded all expectations. I was lucky to have a one-on-one session, and Momo made it both educational and fun. She walked me through the different types of sake, their flavor profiles, and how to properly taste and appreciate them. Her passion and expertise were truly impressive — I learned so much I didn’t know before! She taught me how to make homemade takoyaki step by step, patiently guiding me until I got the hang of it. I left feeling inspired, happy, and full (in the best way). If you’re looking for a cultural, hands-on experience in Osaka, don’t miss this one. You’ll walk away with new skills, knowledge, and a genuine appreciation for Japanese hospitality.

We had such a great time at this sake tasting and takoyaki-making class—it was the highlight of our trip to Osaka. Momo was an amazing host: super welcoming, incredibly knowledgeable about sake, and just genuinely warm and welcoming. The experience was fun for the whole family, and both the adults and kids loved it. Making takoyaki together was awesome and the sake tasting was really interesting. We also really appreciated how Momo adapted everything to accommodate my husband, who is coeliac. It made the experience stress-free and enjoyable for everyone. We will absolutely come back again on our next visit. Highly recommend! Thank you Momo!

das Kocherlebnis war toll, ein einfaches aber tolles Gericht gut erklärt. Die Erklärungen zum Sake waren sehr tiefgehend und die Verkostung reichlich. Momo, die Inhaberin war super aufmerksam und toll. Einziger Topic war den Treffpunkt zu finden, da es in einer kleinen Seitenstraße in Namba ist mit einer sehr kleinen Werbung über der Tür in den 2ten Stock.

My friends and I had a fantastic time with Momo. Her explanation about how sake is made and the different varieties of sake was very in depth. We also had a lot of fun making takoyaki before our sake tasting. I would highly recommend this activity since it's like being at a friend's house cooking and drinking.

Better than expected. Momo is very knowledgeable about sake and helped me choose which ones to taste. The takoyaki was indeed fun to make and tasty to eat. Definitely a recommended thing to do in Osaka.
