Makoto is the most amazing hostess. Our visit started with stops at the local shrine, the family garden patch to harvest local ingredients, and a taste testing of recently gathered seaweed being cooked over a fire in huge pots. We learned about local history, horticulture and traditional cooking methods before we even started the actual class! Being welcomed into Makoto’s home (the setting for the class) made our experience even more memorable as we comfortably moved through the steps of preparing what felt like a banquet! Makoto’s English is excellent. Her interest in current events and her guests made for a lively conversation and a totally enjoyable experience!

Speaking of Miyazaki's local cuisine, it's cold. And chicken nanban. Chilled miso soup is a traditional home-cooked meal usually eaten at homes around Miyazaki City. During the hot summer months, when you have no appetite, your mother will make it. There are various ways of making it depending on each home and area, but you can make a basic cold soup using sesame seeds. While holding a mortar and chatteringly, I will rub the gori goori and the girl. Chicken Nanjo is a relatively new dish that was born in Nobeoka City, but now it is the soul food of Miyazaki prefectures. It is offered at many restaurants in Miyazaki, but it is also fun to make it yourself. We make these two items in about 2 hours.

James, my friend, and I went to Miyazaki to meet Makoto-san and her wonderful family. James and I study Japanese and love places that are authentic and rich in culture - Miyazaki has that. Kyoto is usually packed with tourists so it's hard for us to enjoy authentic Japanese culture in a bustling city. Miyazaki is situated in the most mesmerising place I have been to in Japan. I can honestly say if I had to live anywhere it would be in Miyazaki. If you love mountains, clear ocean water the colour of turquoise, beautiful wildlife, and ancient traditions - Miyazaki has all of it. On top of this we got to meet amazing people and Makoto's beautiful family. They are so welcoming and their house is really gorgeous. They built it themselves and its right next to a trail where you can stumble upon a beautiful Shrine. Makoto san taught us how to make Okonomiyaki, which is like the Japanese version of pizza. James and I have been making it since and it has definitely saved us from days where we either have no idea what to make. The whole family joined and we absolutely stuffed ourselves. Later she taught us how to make matcha, my first experience. I honestly don't know where you can really find this sort of experience because it is always made for you. In fact, the utensils used in matcha is extremely expensive so we were really grateful to have this experience with Makoto-san. Do check out her instagram because it is so wholesome and filled with many photos of the tourists and travellers she has made friends with. They also have a lovely cat which I took a glorious photo of besides a glass of wine... Also I would like to thank Makoto for having AMAZING children and teaching me how to play Speed. I want to meet them again!!!! Thank you Makoto-san !!! Arigatou !!! <3
