The cooking class with Chef Taka was amazing! He showed up with everything needed for the class and was extremely clean and professional. The conversations were fun and the food was exceptional. Our friends are already asking how they can book him for their own in-home class. We highly recommend Chef Taka and you won’t be disappointed if you book him. Thanks again Chef for a wonderful time!

Chef Taka was absolutely incredible. He was at our place even a few minutes early. He explained the whole process to us and taught us about the sushi making process. He was very knowledgeable and patient as we are new to making sushi. The quality of the fish was awesome as well. Wish we could have him all the time to teach us more! Highly recommend!!
