This was truly an amazing experience to learn and gain knowledge on Sushi making to add to your culinary. Small detail really matters when it comes to Sushi making and that is what this class thought you. Clear instructions on the process from rolling your sushi to cutting the fish. And also learning about the history of Sushi making and Japanese culture of the whys and hows was very interesting to me.
I would recommend this even if you have no experience.
My partner and I had never made sushi before but we're so happy for our results!! The instructor was lovely and she answered all our questions. We've learnt lots! Thanks so much.
We all felt very privileged to be in the company of Tomo and Akemi and to have them share their immense knowledge and wisdom with us. After 20 years of handling fish, I discovered I am a bit of a beginner.
