Roll and roll sushi

I used to love sushi before going to class, but now I'm fully obsessed. I learnt a lot of new ways to prepare sushi. And the teacher was incredibly polite and helpful, explaining everything with great commitment. It was unthinkable that you couldn't understand something! If you don't know what to give for your close friends or family, this is the greatest gift to attend the roll & roll sushi class.
