Bringing The Party To Your Doorstep

Bringing The Party To Your Doorstep

Q I want to book a daytime hen activity suitable for all age groups including two children – can you help?
A Tomono Davies says: Whether you'd like us to teach you to make sushi or create a sushi challenge for your friends, family or children, we've got a fun and accessible experience for you. We have a range of event formats, which can be adapted to suit all sorts of group sizes and occasions. From teaching your friends, family or children to make four different types of sushi in a relaxed, fun environment to creating head-to-head challenges at birthday parties or other celebrations – bespoke quotes are provided for each event based on your location, number of people, length and style of event.

Our classic masterclasses last from one to two hours and teach participants a range of sushi skills and techniques from hand-building to roll sushi.

What's included?
•Your sushi host and teacher
•All ingredients are prepared off-site and we can adapt menus for different allergies or requirements (we need to access water on the day).
•All equipment including chopping boards, knives and scissors, dipping bowls, hand wipes and presentation plates. Optional extras include furniture. If you don't have access to tables or work benches at your venue, we can arrange to hire these in.
•Assistants - for events with more than 20 people, we recommend a teaching assistant who works alongside me to keep everyone on track.
•Cocktails - why not add a delicious Japanese-inspired cocktail to the class?

Feeling a little competitive on the day? Why not separate into teams and pitch against one another to see who can make the best sushi and Japanese cocktail? With the Classic Team Challenge package, we teach the key skills and prepare the best tasting, looking and edible sushi. Points are awarded for presentation, consistency and attention to detail.

There's also an Invention Test Challenge that comes in two parts. First, we teach the three main sushi types – temari, gunkan and roll sushi. The teams are then let loose with a range of ingredients to create their perfect sushi. Points are awarded for the best flavour combinations, well-made sushi and final presentation!

Party food and drinks can be added to the packages if needed for an extra-special occasion. For those wanting young ones to be a part of their hen celebration, let the kids' imaginations run free! They will be taught the basics and can play around with their own flavour combinations based on their favourite foods – cucumber and cream cheese anyone?
