Description
Good to Know
Ready to prove you can make sushi that actually holds together? At a lively local D.C. bar, you’ll join Chef Shelina for a hands-on sushi-making session covering everything from seasoned rice to the final roll. You’ll learn basic knife skills, prepare your fillings and master the technique of layering ingredients on nori before rolling them into neat, sliceable pieces. Your menu includes a California roll with sushi rice, nori, avocado, surimi and cucumber, along with a veggie roll featuring sweet mango, creamy avocado and crisp cucumber. Finish with eel sauce, Kewpie mayo, wasabi, pickled ginger and roe for extra flavor. With Chef Shelina’s extensive culinary background guiding you, you’ll build practical skills while enjoying a relaxed, social atmosphere where imperfect rolls are part of the fun.
A fun, hands-on 2-hour cooking class led by a talented local chef.
All ingredients and cooking tools provided.
Expert instruction, tips and chef secrets you’ll use daily.
An authentic experience hosted at a local public brewery, distillery, craft beer bar or wine bar.
Drinks are available for purchase at the bar of the venue. Prices range from $3 to $20.
Sushi night gets a hands-on upgrade at a lively D.C. bar, where you’ll learn to roll, slice and build your own sushi from scratch. Start by preparing seasoned sushi rice and practicing simple knife cuts before learning how to handle nori and roll everything neatly without sending fillings flying. You’ll make two rolls: a California roll packed with avocado, surimi and cucumber, plus a fresh veggie roll with mango, avocado and cucumber. Add flavorful finishing touches like eel sauce, Kewpie mayo, wasabi, pickled ginger and roe. Chef Shelina brings more than 20 years of culinary experience, including 11 years as a chef in the D.C. area. The relaxed setting keeps things beginner-friendly, social and fun, with plenty of room to get creative.
