For this experience

Chef John was so nice! He answered my multitude of questions and has me excited to go back home to try new things. The food was absolutely amazing!!!! Finally can feel confident using a knife and not cut myself especially when cutting onions.

We attended the Tour of Japan class for our 13th wedding anniversary. Chef John was very hospitable, welcoming us into his personal home and kitchen. He demonstrated how to make several dishes such as miso soup, Wakame and cucumber salad, spicy tuna roll, poached salmon roll, and pineapple mango sorbet - all from scratch! He allowed us to be as hands on as we wanted, and we enjoyed assembling and rolling our own sushi rolls. Chef John was very knowledgeable and informative, and everything was delicious! Thank you for a memorable experience, Chef John!

Chef John was wonderful! From the moment we arrived and throughout the entire evening we felt we had been long time friends. He went thru each course explaining how each ingredient complemented dish and how they added to the delicious conclusion. Finally learned how to cut an onion correctly. The meal was truly special and showed why Chef John is one of the top chefs.
