Step into the culinary heritage of Nagoya with this immersive food experience. At a tofu shop with over a hundred years of history, you will learn the craft of tofu making directly from a skilled artisan. Tofu, made from soybeans, is one of Japan’s most versatile and nutritious foods, central to both everyday meals and refined cuisine.
Guided step by step, you will make your own tofu and taste it fresh and warm — simple, delicate, and unforgettable. To complement this, you will enjoy miso dengaku, skewered tofu topped with Nagoya’s signature dark miso. This robust and savory miso, beloved by the Tokugawa shoguns, has been a hallmark of Nagoya’s regional cuisine for centuries.
The workshop is held inside Japan Culture Village, where tradition and modern life meet. Here you can find historic shrines, century-old shops, and stylish cafés, making it an ideal place to continue exploring after your food experience.
Check in at the Japan Culture Village reception inside Nagonoya Café before moving to the workshop space.
Learn from a skilled artisan about the history, ingredients, and process of tofu making. Then, make tofu from scratch and taste it while it’s still warm. Finally, savor miso dengaku topped with Nagoya’s distinctive dark miso.
Your session concludes, but since it is held inside Japan Culture Village, you are free to explore further. Discover shrines and old shops that preserve Nagoya’s heritage, or relax in modern cafés and eateries that add a contemporary touch.
