About this tour
Learn to hand-pull ramen noodles and fold gyoza in Asakusa, the neighbourhood where Tokyo's ramen culture took root a century ago. This three-hour class at Chagohan Tokyo teaches you to build both dishes from scratch using clean, natural ingredients. You'll leave with recipes and the muscle memory to recreate them at home.
Highlights
- Hand-pull noodles and craft broth from scratch
- Master the fold and pan-fry technique for gyoza
- Located in ramen's original Tokyo birthplace
- All equipment and ingredients provided
- Take-home recipe cards included

What to expect
You'll start by learning dough work for both noodles and gyoza skins, then move to building a proper broth. The instructor guides you through stretching and folding the ramen dough until it's ready to cut, then teaches the gyoza assembly line—pleating, sealing, and getting the pan temperature right for that golden crispy base. Expect hands-on instruction with individual attention. You'll taste what you've made and can linger over the final bowls.
Good to know
Wear clothes you don't mind getting flour on; aprons are supplied. Asakusa is easily reached by train. The space is wheelchair accessible. If bringing an infant, they'll need to sit with an adult throughout.
