We took the sushi making class this afternoon and it was just my boyfriend and I and a chef and translator. Dressing up in the kimono was fun and we got to see some samurai armour before we cooked. The class itself was well organized and everyone was kind and patient. Our sushi looked and tasted awesome and we are very glad we came! Thank you for the great experience :)
