• 5/5 from Stella Ng, attended Aug 2024: I recently attended a sashimi and sushi making class and had a fantastic experience. The occasion was a special birthday gift, and it was perfect for the foodie in me. Our instructor Hideo san was knowledgeable and passionate about Japanese cuisine, with a talent for breaking down complex techniques into simple, manageable steps. The venue was an intimate, well-equipped kitchen space that created a cozy and engaging atmosphere. Materials were top-notch, with fresh ingredients and high-quality tools provided, which made the preparation process smooth and enjoyable. Throughout the class, we learned to make various types of sushi and sashimi, from rolling sushi to slicing fish with precision. The class was excellent value for money, offering not only hands-on experience but also insights into Japanese culinary traditions. What I liked most was the opportunity to create restaurant-quality dishes and the sense of accomplishment from mastering new skills. Overall, it was a delightful and enriching experience.

• 4/5 from Stephen Wang, attended Jul 2023: Very professional and experienced and knowledgeable master. Would enjoy more tips/reminders on technical skills as it may help us grasp the task at hand better.
• 5/5 from Nathan Elvy, attended Apr 2023: Todays class was great, the teacher was very friendly and the class ran smoothly. The skills that were included in the class were reliable and traditional. As well as the end product was amazing. It was age friendly and no one can do anything wrong, you are helped all through out the class and you learn about the origins of lots of different Japanese ingredients. The experience is once in a lifetime. Making this class even more authentic, having a native Japanese instructor. This class is definitely worth the price as it was enjoyable and educational all at the same time. If you choose to have a public class, the amount of students is 7, that is enough that you get personal interaction as well a group experience. It was a great class, I highly recommend it.
• 4/5 from Geoff Koch, attended Apr 2023: Culinary Studio Dekura offered a very comprehensive Master Class on the history of Sushi / Sashimi making, the tools and ingredients involved, and some useful tips and techniques to succeed at preparation.

I found the overall experience very fulfilling, and the lunch afterwards was a nice communal time to wrap up the afternoon.
