Our sushi making experience was nothing short of spectacular. We learned about history of sushi, various types/styles, and a lot of the culture behind it. Mary was eager and excited to be our guide! The food was fantastic and she left us very equipped to continue making sushi on our own in the future. We will be recommending her course to many friends!
