#I love Food and Art

Midori Nukumizu is a Kyoto native who has spent many years studying and specializing in South East Asian cuisine. Midori has lived in Singapore where she operated a successful cooking studio focusing on Japanese cuisine and South East Asian cuisine. Midori, upon returning to Kyoto, has started a lovely cooking studio called Bunga Hijau. Cooking classes are set in a traditional Kyoto Machiya (Traditional Kyoto House) right in the city! Centrally located in Shijyou Karasuma, Midori offers fun cooking courses that can be customized. It’s a wonderful way to connect with the culture!

This was a wonderful cooking experience in a relaxed atmosphere. My son and I learned a lot. We made the gyoza last night and it turned out wonderful.

Midori-san was very knowledgeable and very pleasant. My friend and I had a great time having this personalized experience in Midori-san’s kitchen in Kyoto.

Wow! My first Bonappetour and such an amazing experience. Midora is a truly generous and knowledgeable host with a professional set up. She is also a LOT OF FUN! We giggled like kids at my first (rather average) efforts at octopus balls. She then guided us through and we finished a feast of Kansai street snacks which were delicious. Because she is a chef of many years experience she could answer my questions (I am a research scientist) on how ingredients work and affect the dishes. Midori even took us to the supermarket to get ingredients to use at home. My only regret is not having more time in Kyoto to do more classes!
