Perfecting Sushi Rolls
with Chef Elham
in San Jose (Northside)
We had a great time! Chef Elham opened up her home to us, had all the ingredients ready and provided a nice set up. There were 8 people in the class which made it a lot more fun. Such a great experience.
The downside to it (nothing to do with the chef) the app needs to be more clear on the area that you’re booking the class in… And… There needs to be more communication before they take your money.
This is legit class and the company is real. The way they book the class makes you feel like it is a scam. Other than that, Chef Elham made it a positive and fun experience.

Rolls, Sashimi and Nigiri
with Chef Edison
in East Bay (Concord)
Chef Edison was a great host! The class was held in his home, where he made us feel comfortable and welcome. There was a wide variety of seafood and toppings that we were able to choose from to create our own unique rolls. Chef Edison taught us several different styles of sushi and let us get after it with a blow torch too! My boyfriend and I had a great time and are going to use what we learned to make sushi tonight.

Sushi and Japanese Fare With Flair
with Chef Drea
in San Jose (Alum Rock)
Chef Drea was absolutely amazing! She made us feel so warm and really taught us what cooking is all about—love! She made us feel very comfortable and shared her skills, well distributed in a class full of 5. Definitely felt the 1:1 attention and she was also such a great host. Highly recommend her and her knowledge of cuisine (we took the sushi class) for anyone who is just beginning or even has a good level of experience!

Sushi Rolls

5 Stars is not enough, Chef Edison deserves 10 star!
His home is extremely welcoming, his instruction is great, and the sushi was spectacular. We were a group of 6 and had the greatest time. Chef Edison is extremely knowledgable and willing to share his craft in a comfortable and friendly setting. I highly recommend this experience, it was absolutely wonderful. Don't forget to bring some beer and sake!

Rolls and Nigiri
with Chef Edison
in East Bay (Concord)
Chef Edison is great. Loved the class, and you will too. Just know, if you think you're done eating after making the rolls, you're wrong! I filled up a lot on those, and there was still maki, nigiri and hand rolls to make and eat! There was so much fish, I didn't know how to process it. Thanks Chef!

Japanese Seafood Skills
with Chef Ryan
in South Bay & Peninsula (East San Mateo)
Chef Ryan walked us through the whole culinary experience like the professional he is, clearly explaining every step with humor and giving us tips for when we cook at home. Everything we made was absolutely delicious and perfectly cooked, and we can’t wait to try to replicate it! As a bonus, he even rolled with it when we (accidentally) showed up half an hour early. Wonderful experience, will definitely be booking again. Thank you!

A Taste of Japan
with Chef Phoebe
in South Bay & Peninsula (Pedro Point)
Chef Phoebe was a great host and teacher for our Taste of Japan class! My team had a great time, and everyone liked doing some hands on sushi-making, but sort of only really needing to do the fun parts (and not the prep, clean up or preparation of the sides). We also appreciated the history and technique that Chef Phoebe taught us. Lastly, the venue was absolutely perfect and we loved having the private setting.

A Comprehensive Guide to Sushi
with Chef Mari

My family and I took a sushi-making class with Chef Mari that was fantastic! We learned about the importance of the rice in sushi, where to source ingredients locally to make it ourselves at home, rolling techniques, and some knife skills as well. Chef Mari's class took place in Humphry Slocombe's kitchen, which means there was ice cream available for purchase as a dessert, too. My family had a great time!
