Share the passion for cooking and organic life style
Being "good at cooking" really means preparing daily meals for the people you care about with love, and that includes you! Your body and mind will both be happier if you choose foods that are as close to their natural state as possible, and use them to expand your cooking repertoire.
Learn how to make delicious, attractive meals that are healthy, quick and easy to prepare. By popular request, DiningStory now offers cooking classes at your home.
You will learn how to...

fillet and slice fish like a sushi master

plate and arrange food attractively like a master chef
You will also learn about secret spices, chef tricks and shortcuts, how to make traditional preserved foods and more!
Private hands on lessons
If you go to open cooking classes, you might not get enough attention from the instructors. You might have to cook with ingredients you don't like or can't eat. DiningStory will come to your kitchen and conduct a real hands on lesson just for your group.
Organic Japanese French fusion
DiningStory avoids using preservatives and additives and uses organic, local ingredients. The dishes are a fusion of Japanese and French cuisine prepared using homemade seasonings and preserved foods such as Miso, fermented salt, yogurt, dried tomato, preserved lemon, jam etc.
Flexible menu
Each term, we offer 3 menu options for the 3 dishes. These include authentic Japanese and French cuisine, or a fusion of the two. All meals incorporate seasonal organic produce. Please let DiningStory know if you have any gluten-free or vegetarian requirements, or allergies etc.
