"For food lovers eager to explore the delicate, artful flavors of Japanese cuisine, Sozai offers immersive cooking classes led by expert chefs in the heart of London. "

Review:★★★★★ As the UK’s first cooking school dedicated entirely to Japanese food, Sozai is special. It invites students of all levels to master traditional and modern Japanese dishes. I like their sushi and ramen as well as lesser-known culinary gems.
