Roll Out

Sushi-Making Classes

Every weekend, it’s the same debate.

No, not that one. The one where everyone wants sushi but nobody knows where to get it.

But wait! A solution: Wasabi’s new sushi-making classes. A tasty way to please everybody.

Grab six to eight friends and book a Saturday session with chef/co-owner Nhan Le. Arrive wielding your best knife. (Your sharpest nonserrated kitchen blade should do.)

Le provides cutting boards, tips for cooking perfect sushi rice (it’s all about the vinegar-grain ratio), and careful instruction for crafting California, rainbow, and spicy tuna rolls.

Even more, Le will open his little black book of Atlanta’s best sushi-grade fish sources (he frequents a certain aisle at DeKalb Farmer’s Market) before serving your rolled creations with hot sake.

That should settle the matter.
