| The young man leading us was very knowlegeable about Japanese food and customs. The food was delicious and so was the saki!
I would visit this particular restaurant again and possibly participant in another event in the future!
Thank you for a great night. |

| I decided to buy a ticket to this on a whim and I think it was worth every penny.
The guide Raheem was extremely knowledgeable about the subject matter and was great at dispensing information in a way that made him very enjoyable to listen to while sampling the fresh, delicious and wonderfully arranged dishes.
The staff was courteous and friendly and saw to it that everyone had what they needed. My girlfriend and I both had a great time and I definitely plan on doing ALL of these tours over the course of Spring and Summer.
I also think this would be a wonderful way to show someone from out of town a great time.
thank you very much! |

| I love eating sushi but always wondered about its history and how to correctly eat it. This course was not only delicious, but taught me a wealth of knowledge about the true, pure origins and preparation of sushi. I wouldn't call myself a sushi "snob" as a result of this session, but I would say that I definitely now know a lot more about quality sushi than my peers!! |

| The entire experience was terrific! Well organised, conducted with enthusiasm and filled with informative narrative. The tasting portions are large and quite delectable. I left with an appreciation and insight into Japanese culinary traditions, and increased confidence when next ordering Japanese food. No mean feat for an evening's session. I would suggest this tour for anyone who is curious about Japanese food. It is an excellent introduction. Also, it demystifiesJapanese cuisine and makes for an evening of fun, food and great sake/beer! I have every intention of attending this again on my next visit to New York.
Our culinary guide was wonderful! Fun and open to questions. He added so much to the experience with his humour, knowledge and passion for japanese cuisine! |

| Not knowing what to expect, it superseded any expectations i did have. I have never done anything like that. You think you are just going to taste different kinds of sushi and sake, but it was way more than that. I learned so much and now have a new appreciation for sushi and its history. Our host was amazing. He was fun and very very knowledgeable beyond what he needed to be. He made it fun and light so it wasn't intimidating at all to anyone who was at the table. I would highly recommend this to everyone and anyone who wants a unique, fun, and educational experience. |

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

| 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. |

| The Sushi Tour was fantastic! From the Tapas through to the dessert, every course was amazing and the Japanese beer and sake perfectly complimented the food. Raheem's knowledge of the food, it's preparation and Japanese culture really enhanced the experience and we were pleasantly surprised at how plentiful the servings were. We are so looking forward to the Chinatown Tour! |

| We had a really good dinner....we were able to taste a wide range of japanese cuisine. The sake choices put a nice glow on the evening. Our host was fantastic!! He made the what was almost 3 hours pass by in a way that made you feel like you were in a little retreat. |
