The masterclass is excellent in so many ways I don't know where to start! A maximum of 5 or 6 students in an informal kitchen setting means it is very personal, with lots of time to ask questions and get help; a fantastic chef who guides you through every step of filleting fish, making the all-important rice, slicing the fish, preparing condiments and assembling each piece; plus an abundance of background knowledge, experience and culture.
All in all, a fantastic course for beginners like me, or experienced chefs looking to expand their horizons.
Akemi was fantastic - thank you for a great afternoon!!
A really brilliant class with Akemi - learnt to so much through hands on experience and expert tuition. Highly recommended!
I am very happy to have attended this workshop. Ideal for begginers that want to learn nerikiri modeling. Personnel was very sweet and helpful. All materials were available. If you like nerikiri this is a good place to start!
