食品サンプル体験 寿司・ラーメン・カレー・ピザなど 食事系のサンプルを制作!種類豊富な選べるプラン♪短時間30分から体験可能<池袋/北池袋駅徒歩5分>

Polite and kind. 丁寧で優しい

Reviewed by: チカチカ

The staff are kind and teach you patiently. First, you loosen the straight ramen noodles and place them on a plate, then pour the soup over them, and finally add the toppings in your preferred layout. The finished product is very satisfying. I highly recommend it.

お店の方が優しく丁寧に教えてくださいます。
最初はまっすぐなラーメンの麺をほぐしながらお皿に乗せて、スープをかけて、好きなレイアウトで具材を乗せるという手順です。
満足度の高い完成品になりました。
おすすめです。

Creative fun

Reviewed by: Peta

My 4 year old and I had a great time making our cupcake and tart. The teacher was so kind and patient, and could cater to us with our lack of Japanese. There was even a playground with a roller slide in the park next to the building, which was perfect for keeping our 1 year old busy while we participated.

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

One of our favorite activities in Japan!

Reviewed by: Ronni

We had such a great time creating our little cupcake and fruit tart! The instructor was so kind and spoke very good English, while simultaneously explaining to another group of visitors in Japanese. It was also a nice change of pace from running around Tokyo to sit and do a craft. We had a hard time choosing additional souvenirs (a magnet and keychain) from their wide selection, and it felt nice to buy from a local business versus the mass produced ones you’ll see in tourist shops. We’d love to come back and do a larger craft next time we’re in town!

A Fun and Memorable Sundae Sample-Making Experience (Second Visit!)

Reviewed by: WLeoLeo

This was our second time booking this delightful experience—our first was last year, and we were excited to return! The location is very convenient, just a few minutes’ walk from the nearest train station, and easy to find.

From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warm hospitality. Although the owner doesn’t speak much English, he went out of his way to communicate and make us feel welcome. He was incredibly friendly, kind, and guided us patiently through each step of the sundae-making process.

We could each choose up to five silicone food samples to decorate our sundae. First, we picked the color of the sundae base and then created it under the owner's guidance. After that, we learned how to twirl the sundae, which was really fun, before moving on to the decorating part.

The finished sundaes looked adorable—so realistic and yummy-looking! It was a really fun and hands-on activity, perfect for all ages. We had a great time and made some sweet memories. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a unique and creative experience in Japan

Japanese Plastic Food Sample Art Experience in Tokyo

Most memorable display food making experience!

Reviewed by: Ck

Our family booked 2 sessions of workshop here, the first to make a parfait, ramen and curry rice, and the second to make 2 tempura sets. We went immediately when we touched down and as there were some delays at the airport and it was raining when we were traveling to the workshop, we were late and the owner of the workshop, Ito san, was standing outside looking worried and waiting for us. When he saw us, he warmly welcomed us and was patient with us whilst we settled down. Ito san was extremely patient and kind when teaching us how to make the various display food, especially with my daughter was so still young and so needed more time/strength to compete the display food. He patiently explained to us the different materials used and also made sure our end products were of high quality, adding on more materials as and when needed. In the end we exceeded our allocated time of 2hours but not once were we rushed at all. Ito san’s sincerity and skills shined throughout our workshops. I also heard the other facilitators teaching and they were patient as well. I would highly recommend the workshops here and thank you so much Ito san for such a memorable experience!

Lovely experience

Reviewed by: Jess

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our experience; the teacher was so friendly, patient and genuine, and we got to do so many steps when making the ramen bowl. It was not stressful at all, and we wish we had brought our parents along too. Also loved the wide variety of items we could purchase after! So much more meaningful buying from here than Donki / other places whom you don’t know who made them.

Really a hidden gem

Reviewed by: Max

I've now been to Yamato Sample twice and tried two different kits, and I can confidently say this is one of the most unique and fun experiences I've had on my trips to the country! This is a good place to both try your hand at crafting as well as learn a bit about techniques used to make realistic food.

The craftsmen that help you are, as you can imagine, incredibly knowledgeable and have a great sense of humor; additionally, they have a nice lil shop near the front that shows some of their more intricate works that are for sale. I have tons of friends that are constantly planning their own trips to Japan and this is one of the few places I always recommend to them.

The kids didn’t know what to expect but afterwards they raved about this experience. They made the regular sized parfait and enjoyed choosing the decorations first with a sample parfait, then pouring in the silicon icecream and arranging the decorations. The man helping was very friendly and patient. It was great to have this experience which we probably couldn’t do anywhere else in the world!

I just made my own bowl of ramen this weekend and I was helped by one of the workers, Ryou. He was so sweet!! He was able to communicate effectively in English, showed me every step with patience, rooted me on, and even offered to take photos/videos of me throughout the process. After I was finished making my bowl, it took only about 5 minutes for it to dry and I was ready to go!

They also have an area where they sell fake food goodies, and I bought myself some gyoza earrings. It was an easy, quick walk from the station. If you’re into fake food, definitely recommend!!

We had a magnificent time with our instructor for the food class! He was instructive, patient, and made the experience the best it could be. You can really tell he loves what he does, and teaching people about it. If we ever come back to Japan, we will definitely be taking another class.

I also want to note: these classes can be taken in English is need be. Our instructor apologized for his “bad English” - and then spoke perfect English the whole time. I was like “no- WE apologize for OUR bad Japanese >_<“
