Sushi & Sake interactive class at SushiSamba

SushiSamba Coral Gables is anticipating the next session of  Sushi & Sake 101, on Tuesday, April 29. The two-hour interactive class will introduce guests to the history and traditions of sake, the art of sushi making and offers an in-depth instruction about these two worldly traditions from resident experts. 

The class consists of a two-part educational experience. The sake portion is led by the restaurant's sake sommelier and includes five flights with an introduction to the history of sake, its common myths, pairing tips and more. From aromatic to aged to sparkling, guests will be exposed to a diverse range of sake from new prefectures every month - be it “sweet and spicy” or "rich and round with a sweet caramel finish.” Participants will not leave hungry and should bring their appetites. Throughout the class, you will enjoy a selection of signature dishes, a variety of sushi rolls, edamame, tempura and sashimi.
In the second part of the class, participants will gain insider sushi-making tips from SushiSamba Coral Gables’ Executive Sushi Chef Yasuo Tujimori, including  an introduction to the history and traditions of sushi, followed by a demonstration on the selection and preparation of raw fish.  But that’s not all - the class will conclude with all participants creating, and enjoying, sushi rolls of their choice. The students will leave the class with an informative take-away booklet designed to help apply this knowledge at home.

The classes are held in a private dining room on the last Tuesday of every month from 7 to 9 pm. The two-hour classes are $85 per guest and limited to 25 guests per class. 

Upcoming dates are as follows: April 29, May 27 and June 24. 

SushiSamba Coral Gables is located at 180 Aragon Avenue, in the Westin Colonnade Hotel.
