Ichi-ju San-sai 一汁三菜

Mikako is an incredible cook and a great host. The food was outstanding and one of my best dining experiences in Japan.

Mikako is an excellent cook and great company. We learnt a lot about Japanese food and it was really interesting to find out about macrobiotics too. Mikako also let us try our hand at making a dish which was great fun. All the food tasted delicious, everything was made from scratch - we could tell there was a lot of care and preparation that had gone into making it. We had several different dishes, including a special Japanese "treasure bag" dish and a really tasty desert. Mikako's house is also very central and easy to get to. We'd highligh recommend having dinner with Mikako to anyone visiting Osaka! Thanks Mikako for a great evening!

It was great to enjoy Mikako s cooking once more.
Again, it was delicious and she was a great host.

we had an amazing lunch with Mikako and shared cultural differences.
the food she cooked was traditional and authentic.
I recommend her for those who are keen to experience the traditional japanese cuisine.

I had a wonderful dinner with Mikako-san! She is an amazing cook and extremely kind and friendly. This was an amazing experience and I am glad I had the opportunity to come into her home and enjoy the delicious dinner and the great company. I would highly recommend booking a dinner with Mikako if you are staying in Osaka, you will not regret it!

mikako,

thank you for letting me and Ronnie visit you in Osaka. it was a weekday and you just came back from work yet you still cooked such a good, nutritious meal for us.

you have become part of my wonderful Japanese experience in my trip this time.
i will surely visit you again if i go to Japan.

cheers,
PHENG and RONNIE

Mikako prepared for us a delicious vegetarian meal with a lot of small delicious dishes. She is a very open-minded person. Thanks a lot!

Mikako offers the quintessential Japanese home life experience, nothing fancy or contrived-- just straightforward Japanese home cooking savored in an honest to goodness working class neighborhood. This is an experience my family and I will treasure for a long time. Oh, and Mikako's an excellent cook too.

Mikako is a very nice person.
Her dishes are healthy and tasty, especially the handmade dessert. She even made the jam herself! I could really feel that she made a lot of effort to serve me.
本当にありがとうございました（≧∇≦）

Mikako was great! She cooked us a delicious, 6-course, authentic meal that we never could have hoped to find in any restaurant. (It's authenticity was confirmed when we showed the pictures of our meal to the staff at our hostel who were themselves impressed with the spread). Everything was made from scratch... the main dishes, the dessert, the marmalade ON the dessert... even the dishes we ate on were hand crafted by our hostess! Her skills as a baker and a cook were well showcased. The food was only rivaled by her hospitality; she was extremely accommodating between picking us up at the station so we wouldn't get lost finding her place to answering all of our cultural questions. We fully recommend you try it!
