55 reviews

Signature

In this fun team building activity, you'll dive into the authentic techniques of sushi-making. Your group will explore all of the steps of making a sushi spread, from ingredient selection to artful presentation. They'll even engage in an exciting Iron Chef-style competition!

First, Chef Legina will demonstrate how to make the perfect sushi rice. Then, everyone will learn to fill sheets of nori with fresh and colorful ingredients like sweet mango and zesty sriracha. You'll learn to make two classic rolls — a classic California roll and a crunchy shrimp tempura roll. Then, everyone will get creative as they use various ingredients to create their own unique sushi rolls. The best-looking, best-tasting, most unique roll will be crowned the winner!

This class was not only informative, but a lot of fun! Oh yes, wonderful food was prepared and enjoyed, too. Thanks so much. We will continue to follow you. (Remember -- Himalayan Tartary Buckwheat!)

My husband and I had a great experience with Chef Legian and her Sous Chef. We took the crepe class and it did not disappoint. We learned a lot and enjoyed some great food. Best of all, I am super excited to now make crepes at home. We will definitely be taking another class soon.

Such a wonderful, digestible (learning wise and edible wise), and fun class! I had gotten this as a gift for my partner and I to do together and it was such a cool experience and a different thing to do than just going out to eat. Im excited to make dishes at home now, and will be coming back to learn more. 10/10 for everything!!! Xoxo 💋

We had an awesome time with Chefs Gigi and TK! The class was fun and felt like we were learning in a friends kitchen instead of a class. We will definitely be back!

The class was fun and had a lot of information / fun facts about sushi. I also enjoyed the more “personal” style class with it just being our group in the class. The instructors were very nice and experienced. I would definitely recommend this class to anyone looking for a fun event.

Had a great time w/ our friends & Chef Regina. None of us had made sushi before and her prep and step-by-step instructions made it impossible to mess up. We all had a great night out!

Wonderful experience! Cheg Legina is so encouraging and makes sure to walk you through everything. We even stopped to talk about rice preparation and she and her sous chef wanted to understand step by step what the participants were doing so they knew how to correct and inform us on how to properly cook rice. I will definitely be returning.

Chef was entertaining and engaging! We had an absolute blast!

Casey

I enjoyed the class and the chefs. I think if it’s advertised as a 2 hr class it should be closer to the time. I would have enjoyed some wasabi and sesame seeds with the inside out roll. Overall we had fun and would try another class.

Legina and her sous chef were both great! We had a positive experience. The rolls we made were delicious and we felt confident we could make them at home by ourselves after the class. They were both extremely engaging and present. I highly recommend the class and specifically chef Legina. Thank you for a great experience!

Thomas

Both of the chefs were absolutely amazing! This was honestly one of the best date nights that I’ve ever had. I would highly recommend taking a class for one. I definitely plan on taking more classes. They made the experience extremely easy and the entire class had an amazing time.

Loved this class, so much fun and I learned how easy sushi can be!

Taylor

22 Jan 2024

I really enjoyed the food and how intimate the class was! I wish there was more opportunity to be hands on with the food. Most of the time it felt like a cooking show rather than a class. I loved the teachers though and their personalities shined!

Mike

Enjoyed the evening! Easy interaction, answering all questions and casually speaking with attendants. Good tips provided and allowed attendants to participate as much or as little as desired. I would recommend for something different to do on a date night or if you're into cooking - or want to get into cooking. Chef Legina and her assistant were very personable. Only suggestion would be to have copies of the recipes available to each attendant (handed out at the beginning of the class.

Patrick

We really enjoyed ourselves for this class! We made it a date night and we learned a lot.

Austin

The class was very unorganized and felt like a ripoff. Although the chef and her sous were nice, we sat around waiting almost an hour before actually starting, and most of the ingredients and materials needed were not prepared beforehand for simple ingredients and only enough for two small rolls per person.

Suzanne

We really enjoyed this class! Never having done this before now, my husband I weren't sure what to expect so were pleasantly surprised at the relaxed, conversational, and clear way this class was instructed. The atmosphere at Rockwell Brewing Company was perfect to share directions on the food prep and then enjoy the results. The mango salsa was the BEST I have ever tasted and I look forward to getting the recipe to try to duplicate it at home. Hope to do this again soon and bring friends along to enjoy as well!

We had the best time making pasta as a group! It was easy to do, fun and we learned a lot about how to do this ourselves. I would highly recommend to any type of groups interested in learning how to make pasta or just want to do a fun activity.

What a wonderful class and evening with Chef Legina! Her and her team were knowledgeable and so engaging with the group and we all had such a great time. If you are looking for a team building activity with a twist, this is it! We cant wait for our next team event to get back together with Chef! Thank you!!

What a welcoming, informative, and entertaining chef! Went for a date night to her sushi making class and we were not only left full and happy from the rolls of sushi we were fed, but excited to take her teachings into our kitchen. Five stars, recommend highly. Her and her su chef are awesome!

Chef Legina was extremely kind when we called on our way to class and told her we could not make it due to an emergency. She was agreeable to us switching to another class. However I have been trying to contact classpop for almost 3 weeks now, several emails, calls and social media messages with no response. I would love to be able to take this class soon but it seems like classpop has no interest in customer service. I hope someone will contact me back soon.

Awesome! Very interactive with the class. And delicious food!

Fun and knowledgeable chefs who made a tasty taco. Chefs were very nice and approachable. The class was more more a demo than a hands on cooking class, was hard to hear or see in the venue. The $55 dollar cost for a demo and 1 taco seemed a bit steep. A better set up or at least enough food for the group to have really enjoyed a couple tacos would have improved the experience. I think as they work out the tweeks it will improve, there is a a lot of potential.

Chef Legina was so much fun! I really enjoyed taking her "Sushi for Beginners" class and will definitely be taking another one soon.

I loved the instructional style and all that we learned from the class! The only thing I do wish was for a station for everybody to participate.

John

Had a great time. Loved the venue( Bluewood Brewing). Chef Legina and her sous chef did a great job with the equipment they had. Looking forward to another class.

I absolutely loved how informative the class was. The Sushi was delicious. I learned so much about the seasoning and where to purchase ingredients. I felt so empowered and I’m not even into cooking “complex” meals. Chef Legina made it easy to understand. Her other chef was very patient and hands-on. I loved it and will be taking more classes.
