A lovely, chilled and fascinating class on the amazing world of sushi and Japanese cookery

The masterclass is excellent in so many ways I don't know where to start! A maximum of 5 or 6 students in an informal kitchen setting means it is very personal, with lots of time to ask questions and get help; a fantastic chef who guides you through every step of filleting fish, making the all-important rice, slicing the fish, preparing condiments and assembling each piece; plus an abundance of background knowledge, experience and culture.
All in all, a fantastic course for beginners like me, or experienced chefs looking to expand their horizons.
Akemi was fantastic - thank you for a great afternoon!!

Nerikiri workshop

I am very happy to have attended this workshop. Ideal for begginers that want to learn nerikiri modeling. Personnel was very sweet and helpful. All materials were available. If you like nerikiri this is a good place to start!

Really great class with a wonderful teacher

Akemi was a great teacher - very patient and welcoming. Her kitchen is a great space to hold the class - we all sat around a huge island so there was plenty of room for everyone to work. We covered all the steps for making nerikiri including preparing the dough, shaping it, adding red bean paste as a filling, and decorating. Then we tried one of our creations with a drink. I would love to try one of her other classes.

Incredible Class!

Myself and my partner really enjoyed this class! It was well presented, enjoyably interactive and a very enjoyable evening. We can’t wait to cook more ramen from scratch with everything we learnt. Thank you so much Akemi!
