Chef Yapo is very knowledgeable about sushi and any other food. In this class, we each made one roll of maki sushi, and learned all the tricks.

The class was good. But i didnt like how it was two set of groups making the rolls. The 2nd group had to use the same vinegar for rice and same sheets. Class needs to be smaller and using clean materials. He also didnt encourage for ppl to go was their hands before. Class was two short. Wish we were able to cut the ingredients and cut the sushi. I feel that all i did was put rice and rolled. I expected to do the entire roll completely. From the cutting to prepping…
