Miss Stephanie Lam (3rd class)
“ Explanation and demonstration of tutor was very clear. The experience of soba-making was so interesting! Really a scarce cooking experience!”
Miss Lam (3rd class)
“Headmaster Katakura was very serious at teaching. Soba-making method was very scientific and precise, no-error is allowed. Really a perfect demonstration of “pursuit of perfection”. The assistant tutor was also passionate at correcting wrong hand shape of students.
Doris Cheung (3rd Class)
“I like the taste of soba. Soba(rich vitamin B) is good to health and deserves further promotion. Anyway, soba-making by hand was such a nice experience. It was not that difficult and big tool was not a must. But it would be better for the class to be longer.”
Fiona (3rd class)
“Headmaster could really demonstrate very detailed step in making soba. Hope more classes on different types of soba, such as ‘100% Buckwheat noodle’ class coming up…”
Rita Lam (3rd class)
“3- hour duration is more desirable.”
Isabel Wong(3rd class)
“Professional! But not easy to handle in the first lesson for beginner. Interesting technique.”

Yaeko Matsuzwa (2nd class)
“I was born in Nagano, where soba is very famous. I like soba, so does my French husband. The class delivered by Katakura at city’super is my first try of soba-making. It was so fun. I will try to make it at home later.”
Stanley Yung (2nd class)
“The class was very informative. The teachers are knowledgeable and I would recommend this class to anyone interested in soba making.”
Dorothy Leung (2nd class)
“I like cooking of every kind, especially the kind using handmade ingredients. I am so glad in having the chance to know soba-making and thank for the devoted teaching of tutors.”
Brian (2nd class)
I thought the instructor’s demonstration and directions were very thorough. However, most of the printed materials were in Japanese and Chinese. It would be better to have the materials in English as well.”
Mary Wong (2nd class)
“Very good. Would we have some other classes like this?”
Mayumi Kitayama (1st class)
“To fix the shape of soba sheet was no easy task. While making my sheet of dough, the thickness turned uneven. What a pity!”
Alison Lam (1st class)
“The demonstration was very smooth and easy to understand. Atmosphere was nice as well.”
Adrian (1st class)
“Too fast..”
Cat (1st class)
“Very interesting and fresh experience. Teacher’s explanation was very clear and detailed.”
Christina Chow (1st class)
“Detailed handout, very good demo. A bit rush. Better to lengthen the lesson by 0.5 hour.”
