Booked the class Sushi Making Essentials with Chef Melissa in Framingham

Melissa was a great hostess. She was very attentive to my texts and Q's before the class. She contacted us a week before to let us know there was an opening, as we had booked another class several months out. Then she communicated her vaccination status and policies about vaccination which we were really confused about since it's 2026. My husband developed a cold and we were considering canceling 2 days before, but the cozy meals refund policy was 48 hours so we attended the class. There was one other couple. We learned how to make sushi rolls using sushi rice, fish, avocado, cucumber, caviar, and spices. Melissa prepared a gluten-free dairy-free dessert for us, and we played a spice game and had a gratitude session. It was an enjoyable couple's evening experience.

Booked the class Make Perfect Sushi with Chef Harold in Everett

Chef Harold was a very knowledgeable and entertaining teacher. I enjoyed learning how to make miso soup, sweet potato rolls, and tuna rolls with him. I only wish they would have served water or gave us the chance to order drinks from the venue, but great experience nevertheless.

Chef Melissa was so fun to have this class with. She does a great job making the experience very interactive and educational while keeping it light and enjoyable. The food was great and we can’t wait to use the skills we learned to start making sushi at home. This made a great gift for my husband who kept saying how much fun he had!

Patrick D. April, 2022

Booked the class Sushi Spectacular with Chef Harold

Chef Harold’s class was amazing. I booked the class as a birthday present for my girlfriend, who has Celiac and can rarely have teriyaki sauce and had never had tempura before. Chef Harold makes everything at home so it’s all gluten free, and he’s very knowledgeable about food safety in general. The sushi we made was the best sushi we’ve ever had. Chef Harold is a great teacher and has a very fun personality, which made the class even better. We especially appreciated hearing about his long experience making sushi and his explanation of the different types of sushi. I’d recommend this experience to anyone, and can’t wait to try making it on my own.

Norma G. March, 2022

Booked the class Sushi Making Essentials with Chef Melissa in Framingham

Chef Melissa was great. She taught us so many techniques, including knife skills and for different styles of sushi. My son and I left feeling confident that we could do this at home with our family and friends. Everything was delicious. She made sushi making completely doable for a home cook, something I thought would not be possible. I definitely recommend this class!

Melissa was an incredible coach and the night was one of the best times we've ever had.

Booked the class Sushi Spectacular with Chef Harold

I booked Chef Harold specifically because of how many positive reviews he has. The sushi was the best I’ve ever had but that wasn’t my favorite part to be honest. His personality is why I want to express how happy I am that I booked with Chef Harold. When I requested the class I wrote in the comments that I had gastric bypass surgery 7 months ago (so I can only have brown rice and nothing fried) and that I love sushi because the protein it provides really gives my body what it needs. When he arrived he told me he made a couple exceptions for me because of my comment (1. He has never gone to NH, that’s where I live. 2. He has a two person minimum, I booked for just myself). He truly wants to help/educate people that want to learn about healthier ways to eat and prepare food. He even left me a sushi roll mat as a Christmas gift! His kindness inspired me to tell my story of surgery to others because some of those people just may help you. He helped me tremendously!!

Booked the class Modern Sushi with Chef Harold

We had a blast taking Chef Harold's Modern Sushi class. He came with all the ingredients, tools, etc. we needed for the class, and we made so many courses in a small Somerville condo with ease. It was so fun and educational, and there is no shortage of delicious food to eat. I can't wait to practice these skills and continue making sushi. I'm recommending this class to all of my friends - it's the perfect date night, a unique way to celebrate, or just something new and exciting to do with friends.

Chef Jinhe was a phenomenal chef and instructor. I surprised my husband with a Sushi cooking class for Valentine's Day and we both throughly enjoyed Chef Jinhe's class. He was well-prepared and explained how to cook sushi in a very simple fun way. My husband and I stumbled with some of the techniques, yet Chef Jinhe was patient and helped us along the way . We left his comfy home feeling like we learned new skills and incredibly excited to try sushi on our own. Highly recommended! 10 stars from this couple!

"This was the best gift I've ever received on Valentine's Day!" These were the words that came out of my Wife's mouth when we got back into the car after leaving Chef Jinhe Terri's place. I believe that 1-on-1 Sushi classes will become the next BIG thing because not only were they easy to make but Chef Jinhe made the experience so much fun and immersive. He had the freshest ingredients on hand, and a very clean and sanitized environment to cook in. Furthermore, we got to taste the food as we went along, and lastly enjoyed all of our creations at an intimate dinner table with all of the sauces just like in a real restaurant. It was awesome and we definitely plan on going back real soon. Thank you again Chef Jinhe Terri!

Our afternoon with Chef Harold was so much fun! He showed up on time and was very friendly. He talked about his background and we learn alot about sushi and how it is prepared. After he expertly prepared us our meal and chatted while we ate, Chef showed us how to roll and present our own sushi. There was so much food I was stuffed and had plenty left over. Chef's visit lasted about two hours and was an experience we'll never forget.

Kaitlyn C. January, 2020

Booked the class Sushi Spectacular with Chef Harold

Chef Harold was fantastic! After many failed attempts at making sushi ourselves, my S/O and I were able to nail it first try with his class. We learned some basic staples like miso soup, but he also introduced us to some sushi combinations that we had never had before, such as his lobster rangoon maki (salty, sweet, perfect). Overall, we had a wonderful time and would recommend Chef Harold to other sushi beginners as well.

Chrissy C. January, 2020
