Sea to You Sushi in Brookline

The Deal$30 for Sushi-Making Class

This deal runs every couple of months.  The link is to an old page, but the deals are available frequently.   Essentially, for $30, you can go to this place in Brookline, learn how to roll your own rolls - regular, inside-out, and jumbo rolls.  We also learned how to do fancy cuts, which means impressing your friends (and charging more, in restaurants).  You can eat as much as you want while you’re there, and you can take more home with you.  Bring tupperware - they’ll give you a plate with some plastic wrap, but I had way too much to effectively take it home that way.

There are two classes on Saturdays, at 1 and 3 pm.  I paid $3 for avocado, because I don't like cucumber and didn't want to end up with a bunch of rolls with nothing but tuna in them.  I didn't really need to worry - they also had sweet potato and carrots, in addition to the cucumber - and fish.  We had crab legs, cooked tuna, cooked salmon, and, as a special treat, raw tuna.  There was spicy sauce, eel sauce, and sesame seeds to top off the rolls. 

This is better than the average lunch or dinner deal, because it was interactive.  We got the food, which was yummy, but we also now know how to make sushi, which should come in handy at my dinner club next month.  I would highly recommend this deal to anyone who likes sushi and/or cooking/entertaining.  It was a really good way to spend a Saturday afternoon (and I’m still eating the leftovers).

Total Estimated Deal Savings, to Date: $1,284.92
