This is a very small class with a lot of one-on-one learning so space is extremely limited. Halal chicken options are available by request.
Unfortunately, we cannot allow minors in our classes.
"Class was small and there was lots of help along the way which kept things moving well throughout. We covered a lot in a short time and took home lots of skewers at the end of the class. I will definitely be coming in to purchase a Honesuki and potentially a konro grill now!"

Great Class
"It absolutely helps to have instruction when learning how to prepare yakitori as cutting and skewering chicken in this style is likely unfamiliar to most. Don’t be surprised if you leave the store with Ziplock bags full of yakitori skewers and assorted chicken parts as well as a new grill, knife, or other cool kitchen gear."
