HISTORY
Don’t be fooled by the name: Comburger isn’t actually a burger restaurant! It’s a cooking school that offers lessons out of the owner’s apartment in Shinjuku. Drop in for a morning or an evening class and learn how to make a wide range of Japanese dishes, from traditional favorites to more exotic items. If you join the morning class, you can go on an optional trip around the neighborhood afterwards.
