Donabe cooking class report...Summer "Izakaya" Dishes


Last Saturday, we hosted summer version of "Izakaya" class. We were excited to have those enthusiastic Japanese/ Izakaya food lovers and had a wonderful time together.

These dishes went especially well with the chilled junmai sake.
We've received many requests for this class from those who couldn't come last Saturday, so we plan to offer the "encore" summer izakaya class in September. As soon as we have the schedule confirmed, you can sign up from toiro's website. So, please check back on our website soon.
