«I found it very good because we also spoke about the origin of Sushi and not just the cooking. We spoke about the jargon, where Sushi was born, etc. It was very interesting! The trainer was very competent, patient, and pleasant. Very friendly!»

«I had training in April 2024, it was brilliant, in a small group, no hesitation in asking our questions. Our trainer and the rest of the team are top-notch, now all I have to do is put what I've learned into practice.»
