This area is still a hidden spot in Tokyo. You will meet few travelers there.
I recommend Sugamo area because there are so many delicious street foods and restaurants.

Oh, I forgot to mention in the video but there is 1-star Michellen star ramen restaurant near JR Sugamo station. The name of the shop is “Tsuta”. You should not miss!!!
YUCa’s Japanese Cooking Original Chopsticks
YUCa’s Japanese Cooking original chopsticks!
I wonder if you (who have joined my class already) noticed but I created special chopsticks early this year and have been using in the class. Since then, many of my guests asked me if I sell this in the class. So, I decided to start selling them in my class and YJC’s online store.
What I like about this chopsticks is you can put them in a dish washer. I’ve been using almost everyday for past 6 months but it still keeps really new. How about using this chopsticks at your home or giving them to your friends who like Japanese food and culture? For order, please go to the store page. Thank you & Enjoy Japanese food!
Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki
Do you know this Japanese style savory pancake?
This pancake is called Okonomiyaki. There are two kinds of Okonomiyaki here in Japan. They are Osaka-style and Hiroshima-style. I usually teach Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki in my class.👩🍳🍳 Because this pancake has volume and it’s fun to flip several times to make it! If you are interested, please join our Okonomiyaki & Gyoza class!

Gyoza is one of the home meals we make a lot here in Japan.

In this video, I will introduce how to make Gluten-free Gyoza pastry.
I hope you like this Japanese food and cooking recipe.

Do you know Okonomiyaki? Okonomiyaki is a Japanese-style savory pancake. In Japan, we usually buy this Okonomiyaki sauce from supermarket. But I wonder if everyone can find this special sauce in their local supermarket.

Sakura cherry blossoms at Arakawa-yuen park
There is a local park called “Arakawa-yuen” near my house. After the class, I sometimes go there with my son and we enjoy watching scenery of Tokyo from their ferris wheel. This is one of our favorite activity!
In April, you can also enjoy seeing full-bloomed sakura cherry blossoms all around the park. This year, we visited this park almost everyday because they bloom for only a week! How precious they are!!
