It was a touch different in terms of format - we didn't have a speaker (well, kinda) - we had food!
No, seriously. We had Amy Kimoto Kahn, who runs the Easy Peasy Japanesey blog and wrote the cookbook, "Simply Ramen." She spoke a bit on her background and then demonstrated "sushi tacos," an even simpler way of doing hand rolls.
Amy talking. Slightly smaller crowd as we had a $5 sushi fee.
Cheat note: for the tuna, you don't need sushi grade. Yellowfin from Whole Foods works just fine. Freeze and chop!
The best part of all of this, of course, was the food.
Appetizers. Some edamame/hummus mixture on a honey rice cracker. SO GOOD.
Close-up of one of my sushi hand roll/tacos. This one was with crab. I may have eaten many ...
Dessert. Some adzuki bean/coffee custard thing. Taste was good, but texturally it was hard for me to eat.
While I've liked past events with the speakers and the nuggets of information, this was a super nice change up, especially with the food.
