Cooking Class: Make Vibrant Vegan Sushi
Join Chef Paulo to create three vegan versions of your favorite sushi rolls in this cooking class.
First, you'll craft hand sushi rolls by layering avocado, cucumber, daikon radish, mango and more onto rice-lined nori sheets. Chef Paulo will teach you the time-honored technique for rolling sushi by hand before cutting it into bite-sized pieces. Then, try your hand at vegan sushi rolls layered with king oyster mushrooms and jicama. Prepare spicy pickled ginger and fresh wasabi to enjoy alongside your homemade sushi. Finally, craft a sweet warabi mochi for dessert to round out the meal. Book this vegan sushi class today!

Chef Paulo was amazing! He is so kind, patient, and super knowledgeable on the art of sushi. My husband and I are both vegetarians and have a couple other allergies and he made a menu that was perfect for us! Such a fun experience learning how to make sushi rolls. We highly recommend!
