Yume Kojo Hida - Rice Cracker Factory - Make your own Ricecrackers — Local services in Takayama

This place is a lot of fun! I went here with my girlfriend and it was a pretty cheap and very fun way to spend some time (400 yen each I think). The owners sat down with us and gave us a demonstration (through Japanese - but understandable for non Japanese speakers) of how to cook the rice crackers. They then gave each of us a basket of uncooked crackers of a few varieties and let us cook them ourselves.

Once we finished they gave us certificates (graded 1-4 depending how well you did) and gave us our rice crackers and a couple of crackers that they made themselves.

It was a really lovely experience and gave us a lot of laughs. Definitely recommend for anyone...

I went by myself early in the morning (they open at 10am and not 9am as stated on Google) and I was the only one there. The owner explained the steps very patiently. I chose the 5 rice crackers package and they came in different shapes (heart, round, house). The workshop was pretty quick as it took me less than 15 minutes to complete them.

Very reasonably priced and these are the best rice crackers I’ve tasted. The texture is light and crunchy and they stayed fresh for a few days! Highly recommended. It was my favorite thing to do...

So much fun. 500 yen per adult. The owner kindly demonstrates how to grill in Japanese. As we don't understand the language, we just watch how it's done. Everyone is given 6 pieces of rice crackers to grill on our own. Another 2 readily grilled are given to us once we graduate. Our rice crackers will also be graded afterward :) It's all such a memorable experience....
