Dear Kiyoko
Thank you very much for a wonderful course last week, it was not only yummy it was very informative and I've come away feeling very confident with making sushi at home ... the way the course was taught was very friendly and well presented, plus entertaining.
I've since been out and bought all the basics and with my e-sushi course book from Your Sushi I'm just waiting for space in my diary for me to put my new knowledge to practice.
Many friends have asked where I went ... and naturally I have passed on your details to them because I couldn't have asked for a better course! Plus your sushi class was one of my 'challenges' I've set myself to do before I'm 40 so have included your website in my blog!
Wishing you loads of success in the future.
Kind regards,

Lisa

Hi there chef Kiyoko!!
I just wanted to let you know i had a fabulous time on the sushi course!
I learned a great deal, and will definitely be making some sushi for my friends and colleagues...
The course was well paced, clear and fun, and i met some great people there too!
Keep up the great work!!

Adrian

The Sushi Master Class was fantastic.

It was a Christmas present for me, and I decided to bring my younger brother and dad along too, for which YourSushi offered a reasonable discount, and we all had a really good time. We managed to learn a lot in three hours, and the laid-back atmosphere made it easy to learn and have fun at the same time. There were demonstrations, followed by getting stuck in ourselves, and interspersed within this was a lot of laughing with our YourSushi host Chef Kiyoko.
There were a number of techniques we were taught, and we were instructed on some of the fundamentals of sushi, such as the ideal rice cooking time and method, and the preparation of ingredients. After the class, I really feel that I can now make good sushi (at least to a reasonable degree having been a complete novice prior to the class), although all three of us do have to focus on not using too much rice in our sushi, as Kiyoko had to rescue our creations on more than a couple of occasions.
Thanks Kiyoko

Samuel Vereycken

Hi Manu,
Thank you Your Sushi!
The Masterclass was a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend a Sunday afternoon. The whole experience was great fun and hugely educational, and from learning a few simple skills I am sure I can now conjure up a delicious plate of sushi for family and friends. Making sushi is definitely an art. I found that using a combination of skill and creativity was relaxing and soothing. I also went home with 3 very full boxes of sushi which I later enjoyed with friends - they were amazed with the quality, and in fact, it got eaten by a sushi virgin…. =)

Many thanks, it was a great birthday present.

Jo

Dear Kiyoko
I wanted to thank you so much for the Sushi course yesterday!
It was such fun and I really now feel competent to serve lots of varieties of sushi to friends and family. My husband was most impressed when I showed him my efforts from the afternoon.
Thank you for making it so enjoyable!
best wishes,

Anna Flanagan

Hello Manu and Kiyoko
First and foremost can I thank you both for a fantastic day in Bristol. I had such fun and came away with a significant sense of pride in what I had prepared. My wife was doubly impressed at the fact that I had managed to do something worthwhile but also she had some lunch to take into work.
My work colleagues all thought I'd been to Tesco to buy some. I said " Oh no you'd never find Sushi of this quality there!!!"
Kiyoko's delivery was perfect for the day. She used humour and a real sense of understanding of the needs of the class to get over a point to us especially as we were ally first timers!
The gift was also a complete surprise to me and very generous.
Thankyou once again and I will look forward to using my skills for the future.

Nigel Russell

Hi,
We really enjoyed our 1h Sushi class with the chef Kiyoko on Sunday 20th May 2012 in London.
The chef was funny and the atmosphere was so relax. We learnt how to make great Sushi! We highly recommend it.
Many thanks to Kiyoko, Hitomi and to James for his great coordination.
Best regards,

Thomas & Laetitia

Hi Kiyoko,
I really enjoyed the Sushi course and I look forward to making some Sushi this weekend!
I thought the course was very informative, well presented and just right in timing wise. I particularly enjoyed the way you broke down the parts into "I do" and then "You do". It's always best to demonstrate first.
I'd definitely be keen to continue my learning after I have mastered making the basic sushi's.
I would be keen to get your menu on how you marinated the salmon - It tasted fantastic!
Many thanks and hopefully look forward to meeting you again sometime.

Darren Head

I'd like to say thanks for making the class so wonderful. I really was nervous before hand but you made everyone feel very relaxed and it was such an enjoyable class. The sushi was awesome and now I know how to make it :)
Thanks again!

Jill

Good Afternoon Kiyoko
Both Kim and I had a great time with you on Sunday. We shared the sushi we made with our 3 children and all were very impressed with it. It is a skill that I am sure we will use over and over again. Thank you for being so encouraging and such a great teacher.
With best wishes

Julie & Kim

Dear Kiyoko,
Thank you for a wonderful afternoon making sushi - I have learned a lot, and my efforts at home will now have a lot more finesse. You created a great atmosphere, and I am now on a mission to convert a few more of my friends to liking sushi.
With best wishes,

Pat Sherwood

Hi,
I really enjoyed the course and found it very informative. The tuition was fun and clear and I felt that I learnt a lot. I'm definately interested in attending one of your more advanced courses in the future.
Kind regards,

Stephanie

I found the class very insightful and great fun. It is a great environment for a date, couples, or friends to have a laugh, get a little messy, and snack on tasty food. I enjoyed that there even seemed to be a few brave people on their own. All of the instructions were very clear and I couldn't believe how quickly I was able to make my own sushi!
It was definitely good value for money and a great way to spend a few hours.
Thanks again!

Whitney

Hi Kiyoko,
Thank you so much for such a wonderful afternoon!
The course was well structured fun and very hands on, the sushi we made was fantastic and the afternoon was amazing fun! The knowledge (and trays of sushi) we took away with us together with all the items in the sushi kit have set us up for life! We've eaten more sushi since doing the course than we would think possible!!!
Thanks for the ebook, its really helpful in remembering what you taught us on the day and is really easy to follow!
Once again, thank you very much!

Stuart

Thank you very much for the lesson on Saturday! It was amazing!
I never thought I would be able to make my own sushi but now I really can!
I am looking forward to trying my new skills on my family.

Thank you.

Galina Cox

Thanks so much for a great Master Class in London the other week - I really enjoyed it. I wrote about the experience in my blog, if you want to take a look: http://foodalltheway.com/2012/10/11/sushi/
I've made sushi a couple of times since and it has gone down very well with the other half and he is the envy of the staff room when he takes out his bento box at lunch time to reveal fresh, homemade Sushi!
Thank you again - I will definitely recommend your classes.

Anest

Hey Kiyoko,
Just wanted to say a massive thank you for saturday, inspirational and great fun too, am putting my pennies away to save for a chefs certificate next year.
Meanwhile am making the whole of kendal sushi :) xxx

H. Pateman

The class was fun and surprisingly easy with Kiyoko’s clear and humorous instruction. For such amateurs I could not believe how beautiful they looked. I loved all the ideas she gave us. I am looking forward to this half term and making them again with my family.
Thanks very much.

Sarah Cole

I thoroughly enjoyed the 1 hour sushi making class with Kiyoko, on Sunday. The hour flew by but by the end we all had a yummy tray of amazing looking sushi to take home. It was the first time I had tried to roll my own sushi and, whilst I have plenty of room for improvement, I was really proud of what I made. Kiyoko's enthusiasm and encouragement made the class a pleasure. I haven't put my new skills to the test at home yet, but I certainly will soon. More wasabi this time!
Thanks very much, and keep up the good work!

Amy

Hi,
Just a quick note to thank you for the Sushi night last Saturday.
I am sure you noticed that everyone had great fun and thoroughly enjoyed it.
The opportunity to learn a new “skill” was appreciated and your help was fantastic.
Caroline and Chris are reminding us that their plate was the best!
Thanks, again.

Best wishes
Simon Wombwell

Dear Manu,
I attended your sushi workshop at Herbert Smith last night and I wanted to thank you and your colleagues for a fantastic evening.
It is a great way to mix meeting new people with learning a new skill in a light-hearted and fun environment.
I will definitely recommend it for future events (and have already been raving about it!).

I particularly loved the blue cheese sushi as an example of how to mix things up – very French/Japanese fusion! My colleagues also appreciated their (single layer) bento boxes.
Merci beaucoup pour une tres bonne soiree!

Kind regards

Anna Ralston Associate, Real Estate

Hi
Manu, Wei and James were a great team, passing on there years of experience and enthusiasm.
I'm a professional chef who caters to high end clients on private yachts.
I learnt how to make best quality Sushi and Sashimi and the best techniques of traditional and fusion. I will never look at Sushi the same way again

Justin, chef on Yachts

Hi,
Thanks for the class, as said on the day you are a thoroughly first class fun teacher.
Six students was good - I'd hate to do it with too many more.
I really can't suggest anything to improve as you ticked all the boxes with the presentation.
Your own personal input could not be bettered and the class met all of my expectations.
Thanks very much.

Michael Partridge

Hi Manu,
I am also no in the possession of your DVD which I have yet to watch but will definitely do so soon.
The sushi love was brought into work today and given to a girl who works for me as a treat… she wolfed it up! Anyway, here’s my testimonial.

“Thank you Your Sushi! The Masterclass was a thoroughly enjoyable way to spend a Sunday afternoon. The whole experience was great fun and hugely educational, and from learning a few simple skills I am sure I can now conjure up a delicious plate of sushi for family and friends. Making sushi is definitely an art. I found that using a combination of skill and creativity was relaxing and soothing.

Many thanks, it was a great birthday present.

Jo

Hi Kiyoko,
The afternoon was quite brilliant.
My daughter and I enjoyed every minute of it, and wish it could have been longer!
Our thanks especially to you for your expert tuition and presentation - if only all tuitions and presentation were that good............................!!
Thanks again for a great afternoon.
Kind regards

Geoff Phillips

Dear Your Sushi,
I attended your class on 24.March in London and i am still talking about it just to anyone who would listen!
I had fantastic time and my sushi rolling skills improved enormously since.
You are natural teacher and it really showed you know your stuff and that you are very passionate about food.

Hana

Hi,
It was an amazing experience making sushi and I thoroughly enjoyed the few hours spent, if only it could be longer so that we could learn more from you ... :-)
I will be getting the ingredients and practise a lot more, especially to get the rice right.
Next I am planning to have a fun sushi session with kids next door as I am sure they will enjoy it.
Again a big thank you for being an excellent teacher and making all of us feel at ease throughout the session.

I would not hesitate to recommend the sushi class to friends and colleagues who are keen on sushi.
Best regards

Lee

Hi,
Both myself and John really enjoyed the class on Saturday afternoon and thought it was money well spent!
The class had a wonderful relaxed feel to it and we felt that it had a great balance of history, demonstrations and time for us to get hands on with all the techniques.

The variety and quality of ingredients provided was superb! Our friends were very impressed with how our bento boxes looked and tasted as were we, it's great to know that we can invite people over and make them such pretty and great tasting sushi now :)
We visited the oriental supermarket on Sunday and stocked up on key ingredients so we can make sushi at home and we're looking forward to trying some of the other recipes in the PDF, including the dessert ones.

If I had to think of a negative (which I can't) I'd say it would be useful to know just how much amazing sushi you get to leave the class with as we had so much some of it didn't get eaten which is a real shame. If we had known the quantities we would be bringing home we would have invited several friends over for dinner that evening! So as you can see, there really is only positive things to say!

Thank you for being such a patient and knowledgeable teacher and for making the class so enjoyable. We will be recommending the course and the company to friends and family.
Thanks again,

Shelly

Hi Kiyoko,
I thoroughly enjoyed the course and the additional information about sushi, ingredients, equipment very useful.
It was great to get this from someone who really knows about sushi and doesn't just see it as a job.

I was very impressed in what I achieved and had a very enjoyable day and would recommend it to anyone who likes sushi.
I have one question, what was in the marinade for the salmon? I believe it had soy sauce but I can't remember what else.
Thank you very much.

Amanda

Hello,
I really enjoyed the sushi class and found it very informative. I loved how much food we got to take away – all my friends loved it and were very impressed with my sushi making! I would have preferred it if the ebook had gone into more detail about the sushi we made in the class – e.g. more diagrams showing how to position the nori on the rolling mat, but otherwise it looks very helpful.

I would definitely recommend the class to anyone wanting to learn the basics. I can’t wait to have a go at home!
Many thanks,

Holly

Kon’nichiwa!
Both my daughter and I had fantastic time on Saturday.
We thought it just the right length and not too tiring or too much to take in. And there were lots of little things you notice that you probably wouldn’t get from a book or a video like when Kiyoko dips the knife blade and then taps it on the table so the water runs down the edge . . .

You never needed to wait long to have a personal question answered and there were just the right amount of types of sushi to be prepared.
Have praised the course and recommended it to many friends and colleagues
One thing, Kiyoko – I think you must have angered the great god Tesco-San . . . I went along to our nearest (Tesco Ultra) on Sunday only to find they’d stopped stocking sushi ingredients and rolling mats since the previous week! Never mind, there’s a Thai supermarket in Canterbury; sushi rice in 11kg bags!

So Arigatō and sayōnara

Jeffrey and Katherine

At Sundial Venues we are always trying to go the extra mile to impress and wow our customers and we certainly did that by choosing Your Sushi to work with us. We came together on an event that was important to us as was for our own customers so the need to impress was great. What a great time we had with Manu and Kyoto!

They were energetic, entertaining, and informative and made our session memorable and fun. We all learnt something, enjoyed some delicious Sushi alongside a bit of healthy competition! Teambuilding has to have impact, be enjoyed by all, is non-threatening, participative for all and lots of high energy fun – Your Sushi ticked all the boxes and I have no hesitation in recommending them to any of our future customers.”,

Mia

Attended the sushi masterclass in March in Bristol.
Had a great time and learnt so much from both of you, all the hints and tips were extremely useful.
Have all the ingredients I need in the kitchen at home now, much easier to obtain than I thought!, and ready to give it a go and impress my mother-in-law. It was a fun class, learnt lots and would recommend it to others definitely.
Excellent present idea for someone who wants a new, fun, yummy skill....
PS: all the sushi we made on the day was gone within 30 mins of getting home, friends and family very happy with what we produced!!

Helen Osborn

Dear Kiyoko & the Your Sushi Team,

We both enjoyed the class immensely and it was great fun.

You were a brilliant teacher and managed to create a great atmosphere which got us all involved, so by the end of it we were producing sushi which looked pretty much like the real thing.

Lots of useful tips and tricks- so we now have the confidence to make great sushi at home, and at a fraction of the cost of the high priced stuff in the shops.

Thank you also for the ebook. Very useful!

Best regards

Malcolm and Veronica Kennedy

Hi,

Just wanted to tell you that I really enjoyed the sushi class in Leeds! It was great fun and I was amazed at what I'd managed to produce by the end - very pretty, very tasty sushi and enough for two people's dinner and lunch the next day!

The teacher was really friendly and full of interesting anecdotes and information about sushi and its history. I have since made sushi at home for four people and although it took a while (need more practice!) it turned out beautifully!

Thank you so much, if anyone is hesitating to book a class I say do it - it's a great life skill and you'll be so proud of yourself by the end!

Best wishes, Charlotte

Dear Manu,

I just wanted to say thanks - the class with Kiyoko was excellent. Kiyoko was really engaging and very clear and easy to understand. I left with great confidence and look forward to trying out my new skills with some interesting fillings.

You asked me to give feedback especially given I am a coeliac and must avoid gluten and wheat. Your colleague James was amazing at the time of booking and gave me a lot of detailed and well-thought out feedback on what I could and couldn't eat. Equally, on the day, I noticed Kiyoko had noted I was gluten free on her list and when I mentioned I had my own soy sauce she offered me a different type of saucer to hold my soy sauce in so as not to have it confused with anyone elses which I thought was great too.....

Sushi is a great food option for coeliacs and now that I have some skills, Ill look forward to making fresh coeliac friendly sushi at home. Many restaurants and other businesses list with the UK charity, Coeliac UK, as coeliac friendly - perhaps holding some sessions specially, using only tamari soy sauce and only gluten free fillings could be a good angle (as a suggestion?).

Again, thank you so much. I found this course, and the help of all your colleagues to be amazing and I would recommend this to any of my friends.

Thanks again!!
Jose

Hi Manu,

I had a sushi class last saturday and I can tell you that I really enjoyed it!!! It was fun and helped me to think that finally I can make sushi myself at home. I will suggest it to everyone who loves sushi and wants to enjoy a different saturday!! I hope it is enough as feedback but if not just tell me and I can continue to write good stuff again and again!!!!

Have fun!

Vincenzo

--------------------------------------

Manu,

James and I did thoroughly enjoy your sushi making class. We feel we learned a great deal in a very short time. Your class was interesting and informative, we feel confident we can "recreate" the delicious sushi in our own kitchen due to your excellent instruction!

Regards,

Margaret & James Pyle

Hi Manu,
We thoroughly enjoyed our morning with you, thank you SO much!
Kind regards

Hi,

Just to respond briefly I absolutely did enjoy the class, it was fantastic and I would certainly think about doing it again.

Thanks again,

James

Hi

It was great. THANK YOU. Really felt like I understood what to do, by the end of it.

Was really happy.

Good luck with the rest of your courses
Stephen

Hi Manu and Kiyoko,

Just to say I really enjoyed the sushi class. It was fun and I learnt loads. I have just had friends round tonight and I made sushi. They were so impressed and it tasted great.

I loved the spacious surroundings of the course and the practical work was great.

Not much I would improve, except maybe showing us how to cut tuna as it always looks a bit odd when I do it.

I will recommend you course to my friends.

Thanks and all the best for the future,

Phil

Hi James,

Just wanted to let you know we had a fantastic master class yesterday
afternoon - our teacher was amazing. We did learn all sorts of techniques
and took home a wonderful array of sushi to enjoy for our family evening
meal (as well as the nibbles throughout the afternoon). Our teenage girls
love sushi too and were extremely impressed with the results of our
learning!

Very generous, very well taught and so interesting. Please convey our
thanks to our teach Hideyuki (sorry if misspelt).

Looking forward to ebook so can go shopping next weekend to get started at
home!

Would strongly recommend to anyone!
Thanks,
Donna & Simon Ball

Hi Manu,

Just to say we received your email with the attachment-thank you. T-dog and I had a fun time and came away inspired to make our own sushi in the future. Our only piece of constructive feedback would be to warn people just how much sushi you take home from the course as we hadn't arranged any friends to help us eat it all!!
We had a great day, thanks for making us feel so welcome.
Regards,
Laura

Hey Manu & Kiyoko,

I really enjoyed our sushi making class, great atmosphere, very informative and some delicious goodies to take home. Thinking about now is making my mouth water!

Big up the crazy sushi frog and thanks Kiyoko for rescuing my bursting sushi(it was hard not to be greedy).

Neal

"Had a brilliant time on Saturday in Birmingham doing the Master Class - Thanks Kiyoko :-)"

Hi,
My wife Dawn and I attended your master class on Sunday. This is just a quick note to say "thanks very much" for a fantastic day.

Not only were you extremely knowledgeable and enthusiastic about sushi, you were really patient and helpful with us amateurs! We have really enjoyed tucking into all the beautiful sushi we made and our daughter Jennifer has too! We've also been pestering our friends to register for a class with you because we know they would really enjoy it.

Anyway, thanks again for a fantastic day.
All the best,
James

Hi James,

sorry for not getting back to you sooner.
I had a great time on Sunday. It was very relaxed and friendly, a really fun experience. I feel much more confident with my sushi making now and looking forward to trying my hand at some adventurous rolls soon.

Thanks for the pdf link, very helpful also! Henry

hI,
I thought that the course was really really enjoyable at the weekend – it exceeded my expectations entirely!

If anyone is thinking of a really nice gift for a sushi lover, then get one this Christmas, it was worth every penny!

Hi,

My name is Iwona Mamczur and i've attended the 3pm (1 hour) class on Saturday. I had a really really great time. have learnt more than ever expected!! Instructions were very clear and easy to follow, the atmosphere was very friendly. Can't think of anything negative to say!!! Only wish i had more time to practise more types of sushi and learn how to cook sushi rice and am therefore considering applying for the 3 hour class.

kind regards,
Iwona

Hi,

I came to your 5 pm class today at the Hilton in Kensington, and would like to say how much I enjoyed the session.
My husband and I had the sushi I made for supper this evening, and thought it was absolutely delicious.
Thank you very much for the e-book, it's excellent, and I am particularly glad to read further tips about how to prepare the rice for sushi.
I did send an e-mail on Saturday to say how much I had enjoyed the course, and how delicious the food was.

Please thank everybody concerned. Many thanks.
Sheila Gillard.

Hello!

Some feedback on the class. Firstly, we really enjoyed it (the class was a birthday present for myself). It was well run, certainly felt like the appropriate amount of time was spent on each section (too not long or short). Our class instructor was very friendly, and helped when needed. I also thought it was nice how different types of fish and 'specialities' were brought out at different times to keep everyone excited.

A great experience and I would definitely recommend!

Kind regards
Aby

Hi James,

Sorry for the delay. I would like to thank you all for the Sushi Mater Class that i attended on the 13th, I had a really enjoyable afternoon and learned a lot more about how to make sushi that i first expected to. The course was ran really well and i would definitely recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about sushi.

Thanks again
Wayne

Dear Manu,

Thank you for providing such an informative and fun session on sushi making last night. My wife was very impressed with the samples I took home.
best wishes

Will


Hi Manu,
Thank you for the class this evening.
It was great fun and has certainly got me inspired to make more!
You also mentioned you had an e-Book to accompany the class and that we just needed to e-mail you, so here's my mail!

Thanks again Manu,
Simon Topping

Had a brilliant time learning to make (and eating lots of) sushi in Bristol. You don't need any prior experience as it's at a good pace and you learn how to make various types of sushi as well as stuff like how to cook the rice and prepare the fish. Make sure you get the dvd too, especially if you have a terrible memory like me as you don't wanna forget everything you learnt :)

Megan Skelton

A quick email to say how much I enjoyed the sushi-making session yesterday. Our tutor was absolutely delightful and we learned so much in 3 hours that we had. She was full of brilliant tips and fascinating facts about the origin of sushi and paced perfectly so that we had the right amount of tuition and then plenty of time to attempt our own versions. I went home proudly brandishing my (very stuffed) bento box and they impressed so much that i think there were some doubts that I'd made them!

Richard Stapleton

Had a one hour class in Bristol last month, surprised how quickly that time passed, given the choice again i would def go for the longer session. it was great fun and the sushi was delicious :)

Naila Malik

This was a birthday present for my boyfriend and it was a perfect present!

We both went and had so much fun and ate so much delicious sushi .. we've only been home a few hours and Tom has already polished off his big box of goodies! Roland was such a fantastic teacher; very friendly, very helpful and very talented - I never thought we would make sushi to the standard we did (although not quite as good as Roland's!)

We learnt so much today and Roland was a very inspiring teacher - I think Tom should open a sushi restaurant too! Even though my salmon slicing isn't quite up to scratch I will definitely be making sushi at home very soon.

Thank you again Your Sushi for such a fab fun filled day!

Laura & Tom

Hi James

I just want to drop a line and thank you for arranging such a fabulous morning on Sunday.

I don't really like cooking, but love food. The course was so well organised, with a great teacher, and allowed my natural creativity to flourish. Sharing and enjoying the sushi I had made on returning home with my goody bag was an added bonus.

Loved the morning, loved the sushi, and loved Manu.

So glad I booked, and would recommend it to everyone! 
With Love and Blessings

Ruth Hartley

I had a great time at my class on 23rd in leeds. The class was longer than stated which was good. instructor was very incouraging and friendly. The class was far more value for money than i was expecting and made loads more different types than i thought we would. I had a really fun time and hope to make lots of sushi in the future.

I felt very confident and skilled up by the end of the class. would recomend it to anyone and everyone. I handed it out to people at work the next day and they all were very surprised and said it tasted great. So happy i asked for it as a christmas present was the best one ive had for years.

Elizabeth Whittaker

Hi,

I wanted to say thank you as my voucher was bought as a gift for my boyfriend. He had a fantastic time and came away feeling inspired and very pleased with the few hours that he spent with Your Sushi. He was full of compliments about the teacher, style of teaching and the quality of ingredients available.

I can vouch for the sushi that he came away with which was delicious! He was aware of the price of the class and said that, although it wasn't a cheap present, he felt that it was good value for money due to the quality of everything that he experienced.

I am certain that my boyfriend will be sending a testimonial himself but in the meantime, thanks again for making his experience such a good one.

Best wishes,

Sarah

My wife and I had a fabulous time in Bristol last month, learning how to make sushi with Manu. In just 1 hour our bento boxes were full of our own hand made sushi and it was all thanks to our great teacher.

He was so enthusiastic about making sushi which was infectious and made the whole experience memorable.

If you are looking for a great present for a loved one, or looking to learn a new skill, look no further!

Gary Cunningham

I had a great time learning the basics of sushi at the Bordeaux Quay in Bristol last month. Manu's passiion is infectous and you get stuck in really quickly - the best way to learn.

Steve Wakley

Hi there,
I just wanted to say that I had an excellent time, I learnt an awful lot about making and preparing Sushi, the atmosphere was excellent and the tutor was really good, friendly, and obviously enthusiastic about his subject - something that rubbed off on everyone during the session.
Thank you very much, I would recommend it to anyone! :O)
Kind regards,

Mat E

Dear Your Sushi

I just got home from today's sushi class with Kiyoko, and I had to get right on the computer and tell you how much I loved it!!! Kiyoko is a very good teacher; friendly and incredibly welcoming. Her teaching style is perfect for the classes.

I had never made sushi before the class, and now I feel confident in making all the types that Kiyoko showed us! I will strongly recommend Your Sushi to my friends, and I will be making sushi at home from now on, instead of buying it from the supermarket.

Many thanks for a truly memorable day!
Best,
Becca

James,

We have just returned from the sushi class with Roland. I wanted to give you some feedback about the class and Roland himself. I thoroughly enjoyed the course and felt I came away with a really good understanding of what I had just been shown.

Roland has a great teaching style and I found him exceptionally patient but very thorough. There were four of us on the class; the setup was great.

The amount of Sushi we made was incredible, and feel really proud of my creations.

I will recommend the course to everyone I know, as it was the best cookery course I have been on.

Many thanks

Matt

Thank you so much for the class on Saturday in London, it was a birthday gift from my friend Vincent. I had a brilliant time and i learnt a lot. I love seafood, especially sushi and it was one of the best gifts I've ever received.

The sushi we made was fresh and pack full of flavour, i truly loved it but you have ruined the sushi that i buy from the supermarket and shop because its not the same. I can no longer waste my money on that sushit.

Thank you so much for adding to my birthday gift.

Vincent Perrin

Hi there,
Sorry it has taken me a while to write to you with some feedback on the sushi Cookery Class. My name is Amanda Weir, and I booked two places at the Your Sushi Cookery Class in Glasgow for my friend Chris and I. Our two friends Claire and Diana also booked the class as it was a present from us all for Chris's 30th birthday. Our chef for the day was Satomi and because she likes to teach small groups, it was just the four of us in the Cookery Class (at her cool flat) which was excellent! Satomi was such a nice person and throughout the class she talked to us about Japanese culture and explained the stories behind the different techniques used in sushi making....like the chef's slapping their hands and banging their sashimi knifes to get rid of excess water...definitely one way to show off when making the sushi for other people!
Satomi is obviously very skilled and has been making sushi for a long time. It was great to watch an expert at work....and it made it easier for us to pick up too. The sushi we made was delicious...and there was lots of it!!! My favourite was definitely the Nigiri sushi as Satomi had raw tuna which I had never tried before but I absolutely loved it! The Temaki sushi (meaning hand roll if I remember correctly!?!) was great to make too and we all said it would be great to make at a party since you just place the ingredients onto the nori and roll into a cone so it's very easy!
I think what I've learned from the class is that the most difficult part of sushi making is cooking the rice - we didn't do this as it would have taken up too much time but watching Satomi prepare the rice made me realise that if the rice isn't cooked properly then the sushi just won't be any good. So I look forward to giving that a go!!
Anyway to summarise, we had the best day ever at the class, Satomi was a brilliant teacher and the sushi tasted amazing. The class actually ran over by an hour which we were more than happy about (we would have stayed there all day making and eating sushi!!) :o) and we took lots of pictures to impress our friends with our skills! We had so much fun and can't wait to have a go at making sushi in our own kitchens!! I would recommend this class to anyone who loves sushi, especially if there is a group of friends wanting to learn together.
We can't rate Satomi highly enough, she was the perfect teacher and it was lovely to meet her!
Thanks again!
Amanda (and co)

Hi,

I am still on a high after the class that I took on Saturday! Manu is such a fun and brilliant teacher—everyone there had an amazing time and went home with loads of sushi knowledge and indeed delicious sushi. They also do private lessons where you can invite an experience sushi chef into your own home. Here's some... coverage I gave them on that:

UPDATE: As per Manu's advice, I've just spent the evening practising slicing salmon for nigiri and then threw the whole lot into a fish pie. Happy to say I've got my technique down now and didn't have to worry about wasting anything. Next step is to try again for real on the sushi. Thanks for the great tip Emmanuel!

Manu, thanks again for running such a good sushi course. Really enjoyed it.

Hi,

Testimonial below. Hope to have the opportunity of working with you again in the near future.

Kiyoko, our enthusiastic chef, came to our offices to run a corporate sushi making event for our colleagues and clients. She was very professional and friendly and ensured the evening ran smoothly and was enjoyed by all. 

Her assistant James helped to increase the competitiveness between our sushi making teams and was very knowledgeable and full of wonderful stories of his time in Japan. We have received very positive feedback from all those who attended and we would certainly recommend Your Sushi for other social events. 

Thank you for a great night!

Hi,

I organized a sushi making session as a corporate event and the result was beyond my expectations. The chefs were very friendly and interesting, the quality of the food was good and everyone really enjoyed the session! I warmly recommend anyone to try Your Sushi, it really worth it!"

Laurent Bloch

Hi there,
We have just returned from the Manchester lesson on the 21st Feb 2010.
Just wanted to say a big thanks for giving us a great lesson in sushi! It was great for us beginners!
Atmosphere was warm and friendly and we learnt (and ate) loads!!
It was for my Dads 50th and he loved it!
Many thanks, I'd do it again and happily recommend you to everyone!

Hi,

Completed the Cambridge course a couple of weeks ago. Had a great time, and left with some great sushi. Roland the chef was excellent, he really knows his stuff and was a very patient teacher. Since getting home I have had two sushi making sessions and following the advice and hands on experience I received I get better every time!

Thanks Roland and "Your sushi"

Hi,
Loved the Cookery Class this Saturday.

Dear James,

My wife and I both enjoyed the sushi master class very much. Keiko was excellent and we ended the day with some real sushi-making skills as well as several bento boxes stuffed with the products of our labour. I thought the pace was about right and the teacher coped extremely well with the fact that the class included both experienced chefs and relative beginners. She had a very easy going style and managed to give each individual student support and advice.

Richard

Thanks James,  
My husband and I had such a good time yesterday. Kyoko was a fantastic teacher, we really enjoyed the course and our sushi fed us for lunch and dinner yesterday and lunch today! Would definitely do it again - fantastic experience and well worth the money
 
Kindest Regards
 
Claire Kenndey

Hi
We loved the 'Let's Roll Course', our teacher was brilliant she kept everything fun and relaxed whilst being very informative. 

I thought it was a really fun way to spend a couple of hours, it was very well organised and we ended up with loads of delicious sushi.
Thanks,
Ian

Dear James,

I am pleased to be able to offer feedback on behalf of Anne and myself.

We thought the session was well prepared and planned and that the pace of the session fitted well with the group. Anne also valued that Mannu remembered her birthday (I had booked the class back in November as a birthday treat for Anne) and that the fun and light heartedness that he generated added to the whole experience. All in a very enjoyable experience.

Kind regards

Hi

Nigel from Exeter

Hello!

I took part in a wonderful your sushi master class on Sunday 23rd January in Leeds, learned so much and want to say a great big thankyou to those who helped put it together, as well as the fantastic chef - she was patient and very, very skilled!

Hannah Brumby

Hi,

I am writing on behalf of my husband who attended the class on Sat 22 nd .

We all enjoyed his sushi for Saturday night tea- delicious.

Phil had a fantastic time on the course, he said the instructor was very informative and he now feels equipped with the skills to start sushi making.

He has been looking up new ideas all weekend and we are off to a chinese supermarket to buy the ingredients this weekend.

Thank you for a very well organised, professional and enjoyable experience

Cathie Morrow

Hi YourSushi,

Just a message of thanks to Kiyoko and YourSushi, I enjoyed the experience a lot!! It was fun and I learnt a lot and I now know how to make sushi like an expert!! :)
Many thanks again

Hi,

I had such a great time making sushi.the class is great value with great quality ingredients & lots of tasting as you learn.it was loads of fun & i came away with my own beautiful sushi which i was so proud of! Would recommend it to anyone-thanks so much!

Hannah Lewis

Hi James,

Just wanted to say what an excellent few hours spent with Roland this afternoon. He was a great tutor, we learnt so much and had a fun time as well.

The sushi was excellent and we had plenty to go home with. I would recommend this to anyone who loves sushi or just wants to try something new.

Regards,
Mila

Hiya,

Apologies I forgot to send this sooner!

My partner (Alexa) and I had a fantastic time with Roland on the course. He mentioned that it'd be great if we could send some form of testimonial... So here it is!

"My partner and I hugely enjoyed the course - we learned a lot about sushi, from the tools used to history behind the delicacy. The chef was very friendly and welcoming, and the sushi we took away rivalled restaurant sushi!"

Thanks again for the course,

Andrew

Hello

I enjoyed the class very much - we were kept busy, making a number of different types of roll, got some practice with cutting the rolls and ingredients, and useful demonstrations on how to cut the fish (salmon) and how to prepare the rice.

The chef, Manu, was very clear on the importance of ingredients, mixing the rice and vinegar and a number of other key points.

He also suggested a number of unexpected fillings, and good tips on using ingredients in terms of presentation (cress, seeds etc).

His upbeat style was certainly effective in establishing the mood of the class. He also demonstrated each stage of the creation of the various rolls, and provided guidance as we embarked on the process. We ended up with a couple of bento boxes of sushi at the end (very nice).

If looking for changes, from my perspective as a beginner, it might have have been beneficial to have had a go at mixing the rice and vinegar, though your sushi guide has a good description (so I can follow that at home).

All-in-all, it was fun and informative, with loads of hands on activity. I'd certainly recommend it.

Ivan  

Hi,
I attended the sushi class in Glasgow at the weekend and had great fun. Satomi was lovely and welcoming - a perfect teacher who was knowledgeable, very well prepared, patient and kind. I would recommend the class to anyone curious about sushi.
Claire

Hi

Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed the Sushi Class in Manchester on Saturday.  There was a lot to learn but Manu made it both informative and loads of fun.  If only my teachers at school could have been as enthusiastic and engaging as Manu.

Can't wait to try out my new skills.

Thanks a lot

Jamie

Hi Manu,

Sorry for the late reply... Emma and I both really enjoyed our class - many thanks for the pdf, we are already planning a sushi party so we can practice our new found 'skills'! Please feel free to use the testimonial below as you wish:

As a special birthday present the Your Sushi class I attended couldn't have been better for a sushi lover such as myself. The class was very well organised, the teaching structured yet fun and the ingredients supplied were first rate.

I was impressed with the number of sushi varieties we were taught to create and how hands-on the class was. By the end of the day I felt well educated on the fundamentals of sushi and, most importantly, I left feeling genuinely confident that I could go home and make my own.

Many thanks again for a great day and kind regards,

Jo.

Hi Emmanuel,

GREAT SUSHI LESSON , it was lots of fun and very interesting .thanks YourSushi!

from Donna

Thank you so much for a lovely day of sushi making! I tried to make some last night and the rice didn't work! Boo hoo.

I tried to cook too much on an electric hob, and the middle cooked, and the outside didn't. It was a disaster, I was very sad. So it all went it the bin.

Keep up the good work.

The sushi making course on 23rd October 2010 with Satomi in Glasgow was fantastic; an excellent teacher and the class was fun! As I eat a lot of sushi I was keen to learn and try it for myself - my girlfriend bought it as a present and it was well worth it.

Took home lots of the rolls that we made, we ate plenty there too. Learned techniques for rice making (which really is the only preparation you should do before you start to make any dish.)

It was a great day and I look forward to making it for friends and family soon!

Daniel

The course was very hands on taking us through the preparation and creation steps in short simple steps, very necessary when making tomago.  It was also good being in a small group as Roland was able to spend the time answering our questions and showing us what we did wrong.  When we got home we shared  the sushi, we had made on the course, with our family and everyone agreed it tasted great.

Please send our thanks to Roland.

Stuart and Cameron.

Hi, Manu - crazy french man

Adrienne,and I came to your sushi class at Bristol on 17th October. Adrienne was the one who has a 'global palate' and is an excellent and knowledgeable cook I was the one who has a sum total of about 7 tastebuds and on a good day can tell a fish finger from a beefburger - so as far as a testemonial goes it comes from a very wide perspective.

All I can say is that we both THOROUGHLY ENJOYED the afternoon, due to your superbly friendly and entertaining way of passing on some of your knowledge to us. We have good cause to thank our son who bought the 'experience' for us as a present and have not only thanked him profusely but also told him of you corporate sessions. Perhaps the recession will prohibit anything coming of that, but we tried. Adrienne has just walked in the door, returning from the hairdresser to whom she has also recommended you.She was looking for a special present for a friend and we have total confidence that they will learn and enjoy as we did - both the knowledgeable cook and the complete beginner. If we keep on recommending you we shall have to start chasing you for commission soon.

In short - a thoroughly enjoyable and informative afternoon catering (no pun intended) for those who already have some experience of sushi and the complete beginner.

Thank you again

Alan & Adrienne Fouracre

I had a fantastic time on Sunday 17 October - the course was well designed and great fun. I really learnt how to make all sorts of sushi and about its origian and the origin of the ingredients. I would never have been able to do this at home without one of your sessions first! I took so much home at the end of the day that it fed both myself and my boyfriend for dinner which was an added bonus!! Thank you for making it such fun and for really getting me enthused on the art of making (and eating) sushi!!

Lucy Lo-Vel

Many thanks for the Sushi Guide - it will be very useful.
I thoroughly enjoyed my class. Kyoko was an excellent teacher  who knew how to make it fun. 

Mary DeLucchi

Hi Sophie,

I had a brilliant time on Saturday. Manu is a lovely teacher - warm, friendly and knowledgeable. I was very proud of my sushi creations and my family thoroughly enjoyed eating them.

Manu gave us some samples of instant miso soup, which were much nicer than others I've tried. Can you tell me the brand?

Cheers,

Rachel

Hi,
The class on Saturday was really interesting and fun! The chef Emanuel was really friendly and he made the experience really enjoyable.

I shall recommend you to people.
Many thanks
Kit

Hey there,

I meant to say thank you a few weeks ago... I did the sushi course with Roland which was very beneficial.
In one day it was possible to grasp an all round basic knowledge of sushi and sashimi with a professional and experienced teacher.

Regards,

Tom Eadie

Hi ,

So sorry I did not get back sooner but have been travelling a little and dealing with some Supermarkets for the Caviar and Pearl markets as well as having a chance to talk to one Sushi outlet to see if they want my products. I would just like to say thank you for the day at your house for the lesson on Sushi it was very interesting and you made it very relaxed and simple to understand. I have actually had a few party's were I have made most of what we did and got some great reviews and of course have been experimenting with all my Caviars and Pears which make them become Luxury and look great but very affordable as well.

I will no doubt be wanting to try and book a more intense course with you as I think next year I will want to take it up a notch or two!!

Again thank you for also the history lesson on Sushi and making us feel very relaxed and at home, this made it very easy to remember.

Thanks again and talk soon

I made the rice last Saturday and it was a good success for the first time.  My sushi looked good and professional had a really good afternoon, thanks Emmauel.
 
Barbara

This was a great class – my favourite part was learning how to make the Sushi Su from scratch!

Harriet Jenkins

Hi,

We had a great time on Saturday, learning the tricks Kiyoko shared with, eating great sushi made by us!! Everyone so really friendly and patient with us. Would recommend the experience to anyone. We can now make sushi on our own!

Cesar Calderon Blanco

Hi,

So sorry for the delay. Just wanted to write and say how much we enjoyed our sushi-making Cookery Class. Emmanuel was such an enthusiastic teacher and the emphasis was very much on having fun. We made a great amount of sushi (some of it presentable, some of it... not so much!) and it was delicious. We learnt so many interesting facts about sushi and it was a thoroughly entertaining few hours. Highly recommended.
Dave and Fran, London

Hi,

We had a awesome time on Saturday at the Hilton hotel. Thank you Emmanuel, you so funny and made it fun for all of us.

Nadine Minnie

My boyfriend and I had a fabulous afternoon learning sushi with in Bristol on Sunday. Huge amounts of sushi and Hiroko was fantastic - very patient and we learnt (and ate) loads. Would recommend to anyone. Thanks very much!
Rachel Vicary

Hi,

Great day on Saturday. Kiyoko was lovely and explained everything really simply and clearly. We had no problems following her instructions. Later my friends really enjoyed eating everything I had made. I've just ordered a rice cooker so there will be no stopping me.

Tiffany Evans

Hiya,

Thank you so much to Emmanuel and his team for such a wonderful day on Saturday. Kiyoko was a wonderful tutor and moreover has a great, friendly, patient demeanour even when we made a mess! My partner (who bought me the lessons as a gift!) was very impressed with what I produced! I have already been to my local Oriental... Superstore on Mill Rd in Cambridge to buy Nori, roll mats etc and have been looking on the internet for a not-too-expensive rice cooker and plan to have an evening sharing my new skills with my girlfriends over a glass or two (or three!) of vino!

Dear Sophie,

I attende the Sushi lesson with Satomi in Queenspark, Glasgow. From the outset it was a superb expereicne. Satomi was very welcoming, an excellent hostess and tutor. she made me feel very relaxed and welcomed me and the other students to her homw with grace and charm. Her preparation was excellent and she gave very good instructions throughout the session. She was calm, helpful and supportiveparticularly when I did not get things quite right. She encouraged all of us to produce high quality food and offered an insight into Japanese culture and the importance of colour in the food as well as the importance of quality tips in preparation. She exuded confidence and made the whole experience very enjoyable. She had a very good sense of humour and dealt well with the mixed ability group. I have taught for 38 uears and been a Head Teacher for 20. In that time I have observed and worked with many teachers. I found Satomi to be in the excellent group. I will endeavour to put her teaching into practice and I will most certainly make and eat more Sushi!

Many thanks!

Jeff Brown

Amazing food -

Kyoko was a fantastic teacher and a good laugh. We made our colleagues jealous at lunch the nexy day!

Claire McKay

Hi,

My daughter (aged 10) and I had a wonderful afternoon at the sushi course in Leeds yesterday. I must've eaten at least £20 worth of sushi throughout the course (that's how many rubbish ones I made that needed eating to get rid of the evidence of my poor worksmanship!) & there must be about £30+ left in the fridge(plus ...the same again which my daughter made!).

By the end of the course we had all made the most amazing amount of stunning looking and delicious sushi which would even whoop the ass of the fanciest Waitrose platter!

I would recommend this course to anyone, not just established sushi lovers. Thank you Kiyoko for a great afternoon.

Michael

Hello,

I was pretty excited when my family gave me -as a present for my birthday- a sushi class. I expected many things from the class, but everything I learned exceeded my expectations. Emmanuel, was a brilliant teacher,fun and has that personality that makes youunderstand everything easily. He also was very kind and patient... and all the time he tried to make sure that you were fine and having good time.The group was also an asset. Everyone wanted to learn and create an excellent learning environment. Now I'm looking forward to get all the equipment and ingredients. I can't wait to start cooking my own sushi. Love it!

Edna Isa

Good evening,

Attended the course in London last Saturday and was inspired by the charismatic Emmanuel. Found the course very helpful and not as difficult as I thought it would be. Made loads of sushi and took some home - the big result for me was that my family ate everything I brought home and encouraged me to do more!!
Douglas Kean

Good evening,

I really enjoyed your Yoursushi class two weekends ago. I have not yet had a chance to put my learning into practice but hope to do so this week. Unfortunately I have forgotten how to do the Te Maki? (conical shape sushi) you taught us and was wondering if you could tell me how much rice to put on the nori sheet and how to fold it again?

Many thanks,
Susannah Hunter

Hi Sophie,

The class was booked for me as a birthday present. I wasn't sure what to expect, but actually I had a really great time. The group was fun and friendly, Emmanuel was a really entertaining guy, and the sushi was really delicous! Thanks for a great day out!
Darren

Hi Sophie, I had a really excellent day. It was highly enjoyable, very informative and a very good education. Emmanuel's approach to teaching was superb - witty and full of energy.

The class that I attended produced a lot of sushi in a relatively short space of time. Emmanuel had the ability to keep people's attention, and they learnt very quickly because of this. The supporting guide has been very helpful too.

With thanks again - greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Carl

Hi, Thanks very much for forwarding the Sushi guide onto me, and also a big thanks for the great class on sunday. We both thoroughly enjoyed it, and loved eating all that delicious sushi.

If anyone ever wants to try making sushi I will definately recommend your classes. Thanks again,
Louise & Carl

Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for organising the Sushi lesson. We had a most enjoyable time and are looking forward to putting our learning's to use.

Rob

Hi,

I have enjoyed the class beyond my expectation. Chef Rolland-san absolutely knows his craft. I thought when signed up it is going to be classic teaching class. However, it was much more than that. It was fun, friendly. I was introduced to a bit of sushi history. I have learnt so many tricks. The chef was jolly, made me see... the art of making sushi. I have enjoyed eating my own hand-made sushi. At the end, i had a lovely box full of goodies to share with family. I have already recommended the class to few of my friends.
Tarek Kebeasy

THANK YOU!

The course was very good and Rolland-San was very constructive taking time to give us explanations and demonstrating his techniques.

We thoroughly enjoyed it and would recommend it to anyone interested in learning Sushi.

Thanks again
Ian & Lyndie Lothian

Hi,

Hi.Thanks to a wonderful birthday present from my family I had a brilliant experience on the 18th July in Leeds, the class was lead with patience beyond belief. The Sushi was delicious and in the end by expert tuition, looked almost professional.

Thank you for a most enjoyable afternoon.
Gwen

Hi,

I thoroughly enjoyed my sushi making class with Satomi she was very friendly and helpful. Both my husband and i enjoyed tasting the fruits of my labour. I would recommend this class to anyone who enjoys eating sushi as learning how to make it by yourself increases the flavour tenfold.

I can't wait to make my first batch at home. Thank you
Susie Veitch

Hi,

The sushi class on Saturday was excellent. My wife was very impressed with her surprise birthday treat, and Satomi made an excellent teacher.

She had obviously made quite a bit of effort in her preparation, and the quality and variety of the ingredients was superb. Her class included the preparation and cooking of rice, and even how to buy sushi quality raw fish !

And, best of all, she gone out and bought Sanchi Tamari gluten free soy sauce, especially for my wife. These small touches can make all the difference, and it was greatly appreciated. All in all a great experience. Thank you so much, and we are very much looking forward to making great sushi !

Regards,

~Chris

Hi there, We had a great time at the class on Saturday, it was very well organised but also very relaxed. The tutor was very informative and also provided some history about the origins of sushi etc which was very interesting.

We really enjoyed it and have gained some confidence in attempting to make our own sushi at home! We made so much food we were able to take it away and have a picnic nearby.

Many thanks,

Regards, Casilda

Hi,

Thanks for the Sushi making guide. I hope to make time to one day try making my own sushi; but if I practice and at first don't succeed I'll try and try again.
The class was brilliant and you are an excellent tutor as I took in and learnt a lot in a short space of time.
You also made it really fun and I really enjoyed it and also felt I could take in more and wanted to do more because I think your style of delivery really suited everyone there.
Thanks for a really enjoyable course and I will mention my class and the fun I had to family, friends and colleagues.
Take care and very best wishes.
Michael

The chef was an excellent sushi chef/teacher and the Cookery Class was great fun. I hope somebody will give me another voucher so that I can perfect my technique!

Best regards
Carolina

Hi there,

Just a note to say we had a great time on Saturday.  Roland was charming and we had a very thorough session which went well over time as we learned so much, and came away knowing how to make every kind of sushi I'd ever come across previously. 

I'm now a happy sushi bunny!

Hi ,
My daughter and I attended the sushi Cookery Class in Manchester. It was a present from my husband. We really enjoyed learning about sushi, how to make some and especially loved eating the result of our efforts! We did manage to make more than we could eat - so took some samples home to our husbands - they send their thanks too. We have made sushi twice since and having a 'sushi fest' for family this weekend celebrating my son's engagement.

Many thanks to Emmanuel.

Hi,
Thank you very much for yesterday's class, I really enjoyed it. I am now full of enthusiasm for making sushi and am going to a Chinese Supermarket in Croydon (Wing Yip Centre) to buy all the paraphernalia I need.
Also, I plan to make some sushi to take for lunch at work throughout the week. I
f I make some on Sunday and keep it in the fridge (maybe freezer?) how long would you recommend keeping it before it should be thrown away (I imagine different fillings with different expiry dates have an impact). Do you ever pre prepare sushi for a later date?

Regards,
Alex

Dear Emmanuel,

We really enjoyed the course yesterday, thank you!
Please could you re-email me the sushi guide please?
 
Many thanks

I booked this Cookery Class for my husband's birthday as we both like eating sushi but have never ventured to make it.
It was fabulous! We had so much fun and it was such a great experience. Now we're planning our next sushi making session.
Well worth it!

Thank you
Salina & Daniel

Hi there,
I just wanted to say that I had an excellent time, I learnt an awful lot about making and preparing Sushi, the atmosphere was excellent and the tutor was really good, friendly, and obviously enthusiastic about his subject - something that rubbed off on everyone during the session.
Thank you very much, I would recommend it to anyone! :O)
Kind regards,

Hi,
I attended the Glasgow Sushi class and Santo was the GREATEST.
What a lovely woman, very friendly and knew exactly what she was doing. She was absolutely fantastic.
It was a wonderful experience learning how to make Sushi and I loved every minute of it. I picked up so many useful tips. I have now recommended this course to all my friends and family….I have emailed your web address to all my colleagues at work as well telling them that this would make a great Christmas present.

Thank you so much for such a lovely experience….I had such fun and am now a SUSHI master…….practice makes perfect!

I booked me and my girlfriend onto your course at Birmingham and i have to say it exceded my expectations. You are a fantastic host and made the whole process alot of fun and also really informative about certain ingredients and the history of sushi.

The course was really intimate which meant we were always involved and I would not hesitate to recommend the course to anyone else.

Hello ,
Just wanted to thank you for the sushi Cookery Class last Saturday ... I loved it, it was fun and I now want to try making more sushi at home! And honestly, all my respect to you for having set up such a cool business. I suppose it is a great example that passion in what one does (quite obvious in your case) can make things happen no matter what the effort and commitment etc. .... some things make you think (talking from my high profile corporate job with so very little left in for me).
I wish you all the best and definitely will keep Your Sushi in mind for event, parties etc. Kind

Regards
Isabella

Hello,
Many thanks again for the lesson last weekend, it was very enjoyable and I thought I'd send you a quick pic of this weekends follow up attempt (with the in-laws help too). Maybe see you again at an advanced lesson in the future. Make sure you send out a mail-shot when you sort out your DVD.
Kindest regards.

Saturday night's tea was fab thanks to the fresh Sushi prepared earlier that day. I really enjoyed the group lesson and appreciated the knowledge and techniques you were able to pass on in such a relatively short period of time.
I've set my self the challenge of preparing Sushi in front of my wife, for this Saturday's tea, so that she can have a go too. I bought a starter pack from you so I have the basics, however, I am struggling to get hold of the pickled raddish- Daikon. Do you know of any suppliers in or around the Stockport/High Peak area?

Thanks again

Rich thoroughly enjoyed the lesson and came home hugely enthusiastic about it all. We ate the results for dinner last night and it really was delicious so thanks very much for making my choice of birthday present for him a success!

Hi,

Just wanted to say thanks again for the sushi lesson you gave Hannah and I last weekend.

Thanks ,
Greg

Hi ,

Thanks for the class, you made it very fun and interesting- I've already recommended it to many of my friends!

Could I also request from you the information booklet that some people received in the post which contained the rice cooking information? I could get the info from a random site on the net, but I'd rather get it from the master .

Thanks again,

Chris

Hi,

Chris had a great time! I've asked him to drop you a line when he gets chance.

He has spent the last week searching for the right rice cooker and lecturing me on the sin that is supermarket sushi :O)

He has also promised to throw a sushi party as soon as he gets the cooker, I can't wait!

Thank you so much, this was definitely one of the best birthday presents I have given anyone and I will recommend it to everyone!

Kind regards,

Vicki ireland
