The actual experience was great, they had an English speaking associate that translated for us, and it's all very visual. It's a little misleading with the food, you're actually just putting the tempura coating on the shrimp/veggies, so you aren't making it all yourself. The lettuce is all handmade. Booking the experience was terrible. It would be much better if they just had the dates and times available and you could check which ones you wanted versus having to email the vendor and then they give away seats. We had to change our date 3 times because we didn't respond fast enough and then one of our people couldn't make it, but we had found someone else to come but the company cancelled the seat without our approval and refused to give a refund.

Such a fun quirky experience, making replica food from hot wax, either dropped from a height or delicately placed, stretched and folded in warm baths about 43 degree centigrade, then you get to take your creations home in authentic food containers. Translator was a good investment, whilst you can follow the instructions and complete the activity, but you wouldn't get the background and history of these uniquely Japanese window decorations. Some better instructions on how to get to the storefront or having the translator meet you at nearest train station would be beneficial.
