4.Sushi Making Class at a Local Brewery in Boston

★★★★★★★★★★4.5 · 3 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $75Best value

At Long Live Roxbury in Boston, chef Harold, who has more than 20 years of experience, teaches you to make miso soup, temaki hand rolls and uramaki inside-out rolls. Ingredients and tools are provided, and you eat the meal you prepare. The two-hour class starts at noon; craft beer is available to buy separately.

“The chef was great and the experience itself was positive - because we sat right next to him. He doesn't use a microphone, so sometimes the hearing is a bit difficult. Also, the menu itself felt a bit simple, even if the pricing was great. But everyone managed to do their rolls and the new knowledge was nice! Would do it again, just think the menu + can improve.”
