So ages ago - there was a gilt city deal for Osakana Ramen class! I took the opportunity to purchase it for Felix's birthday? anniversary? christmas gift? who knows now at this point LOL! If you don't know Felix, he is the HUGEST Ramen fan [please let us know if you need recs!] so I thought it'd be a perfect little treat for him to know how to make it. 

Osakana is a cute little, unassuming fish market in brooklyn. When you first walk in, there is a small store front with delicious fish. When you walk into the back, there is a bar with people making fish based ramen in the back. It's quite a small space - up to maybe 8 people can fit at one time. 

haha - I wanted to make a note first of the extremely teeny tiny bathroom! It's very clean, but very japaneseque with how incredibly small it is! 

In any case, the class was literally just me and fel. We had a great instructor (I wanna say his name is... Jonathan?) who gave us a lot of history of Ramen and how it is prepared and cut. Although coming straight out of work to do this, it was a bit difficult for me to actually focus to answer his questions LOL! We learned about the different bases, broths, how to prepare the noodles, the toppings that go on it, etc. We were even able to go behind the counter to do the preparing! 

Of course, Felix's part was learning how to make a perfect egg and mine was putting the whole bowl of ramen together in a couple of minutes! It was a super fun learning experience! At the end, we got to enjoy our two bowls of Ramen! 

At the end of it all, we had such a blast making our Fish Ramen! It was super fun and rewarding to eat your creation! Our class lasted about 1.5 hours, so just know that each class differs according to how long you as a group may take. We thoroughly enjoyed this experience and I would definitely come back here to enjoy some ramen! Thank you Osakana for the fun date night experience!
