Ramen making class in Kabukicho: make and eat your own bowl
Craft your own ramen bowl and dive into Shinjuku’s rich, meaty broth blend
A ramen-making class in Kabukicho where you stir-fry meat toppings, select your soup base, boil noodles and assemble a complete bowl to eat right after. The class skips the long process of making broth and noodles from scratch, so you move through easy steps anyone can follow. A live guide speaks English, Chinese or Japanese, and children from age 4 are welcome.
The Experience
You arrive at the studio in Kabukicho and start by learning the basics of ramen—what goes into a bowl, how the dish fits into Japanese food culture, and why making it from the ground up takes hours. Then the class moves into the hands-on part: you stir-fry your choice of meat topping, pick which soup base you want (pork, chicken or beef), boil the noodles to the right texture, and layer everything into your bowl. The guide walks you through each step, and because the class skips the long broth-making and noodle-rolling process, you stay on track to finish and eat within the hour.
Once your ramen is ready, you sit down and eat what you made. The experience ends when you finish the bowl. You can bring friends or family—the class works for solo travelers and groups alike. A live guide in your language (English, Chinese or Japanese) is there throughout, though some staff may use a translation machine if needed. Children from age 4 can join if a parent or guardian is present.
Public transportation stops near the studio, so getting there without a car is straightforward. You'll choose your drink option at checkout—soft drink, beer flight, alcoholic beverage, or none—and can add gyoza or pick a vegetarian ramen menu if you prefer. The soup recipe is kept secret, but the operator notes it contains pork, chicken and beef stock.
