| Our leader was enthusiastic and well-informed which made for an entertaining evening. The restaurant served perfect portions of tasty tapas and sushi. We feasted with our eyes, palettes and learned a lot. Several tapas were memorable and the sake was premium grade. Thanks! |

| It could not have been better. Japanese food never tasted as good, and Rahim knew his stuff cold. |

An enjoyable journey into Japanese cuisine

| You will enjoy this and learn even if you've loved sushi for quite some time, like me. The host is very enthusiastic and a walking wikipedia of sushi and Japanese cuisine knowledge (although not actually of Japanese origin, interestingly).
The food and drinks are good, but i would think of it more as lesson material and less as of a kind of dinner one might order at a restaurant. The host will walk you through a large number of different dishes prepared in very different ways and he will probably change a few preconcieved notions in the process. |

| If you're a sushi lover this event is a must! The food itself is outstanding, but the real treat is the extensive knowledge of the host. The in depth detailed descriptiveness given to each item brought in front of us was mind blowing. Where's the book? I highly recommend this for any anyone, whether it is a large group or a couple you'll have a blast. |

| Raheem was very knowledgeable and completely charming. We didn't LOVE everything we ate, but it was an awesome experience and we were very full afterwards. I am happy I learned so much about sushi and Japanese culture. I have done almost all the tours Foods of New York offers except the Chinatown one that I want to do with Raheem when I'm in NY on a Wednesday. |

| We love Japanese food and ate it often but the menu served by this tour has all the stuff we never had before (except for the dessert) and they tasted incredible! I am a very picky food eater and I finished everything on my plate. I will definitely recommend to another friend. |

We love this class!

| My boyfriend and I loved this class so much when we were in New York in April that we attended again last weekend. True to form, Rahim did NOT disappoint. We had a fantastic time! The food was excellent and our group was a ton of fun! Thanks again for a great time and you will see us again on one of the other tours (next time, we'll have to hit the Chinatown one!). :) |

| I thought the sushi tour was excellent. The food was very interesting and some different from any sushi I had ever tasted. The explanation of the several courses was very educational and gave great insight into the Japanese culture. Our married children and spouses who live in NYC truly enjoyed the evening. Very worth while. |
