Sushi can feel complicated if you are new to it but learning the process in a hands-on way makes everything feel clear and manageable. The sushi making course at Culinary Craft offers this clarity in a space built for real people who enjoy real food. You learn how to roll your own sushi while spending time with someone you know or with a group you enjoy being around.
This course is not built for chefs. It is meant for couples along with friends and food lovers who want to try something they can enjoy together. Whether you are planning a different kind of date or hoping to cook with your weekend group, this session gives you a full experience without feeling like a formal class.
Who this course works best for:
- Couples who want to have some time together and do something practical and unforgettable.
- Cooking friends and people who like eating and want to have something new as a group activity.
- Curious food lovers interested in the Japanese methods and like learning through doing the job themselves.
Every participant gets their own tools along with ingredients so the process stays simple and clear. The format works for all skill levels, and no prior experience is required.
What happens during the session:
You begin with a clean station that has everything you need. The chef starts by walking you through the basics of sushi rice preparation. You learn how to roll the rice and fillings and wrap them well. You are taken step by step, but at your own rate. You prepare your own sushi and then place it on your plate.
You do not watch from a distance. You are part of the full process from start to finish. The chef is there to support without taking over the work. This makes the session feel more active and less like a demonstration.
What the session includes:
- Introduction to tools and techniques used in home-style sushi making.
- Guided instruction for shaping rice, along with choosing vegetables and other fillings.
- Rolling practice using traditional mats with tips on keeping your rolls clean and tight.
- Plating guidance for serving your sushi in a way that looks polished and complete.
The ingredients are fresh and ready beforehand to allow you to concentrate on the practical part. There is no need to carry anything, and all the clean-up is taken care of at the end of the session.
Why this format works for social or private events:
The course is structured to encourage collaboration without putting pressure on any one person. You are part of a group, but you still get space to work with your partner or your friends. This makes it a good option for private events that need something engaging and well-paced.
In case you are organizing a birthday or a casual corporate event, this course will provide you with something other than the typical outing. The environment is friendly and the activity provides individuals with an opportunity to communicate, laugh and make something with one another.

- Teams take part in the course as a social activity where they can break from their regular work rhythm.
- Families use the workshop as a way to cook together and spend time with no distractions.
Each group brings its own energy, but the format keeps things easy and social. You are not expected to be perfect. You are expected to try, enjoy and learn by doing.
What makes Culinary Craft different:
The studio is located in Powai and is designed with comfort in mind. It is a fully furnished facility that operates certified courses and short-format workshops. All the classes are conducted by chefs who understand how to instruct without making the class too stiff.
You are working in an air-conditioned studio that has professional tools, but the energy in the room stays friendly and relaxed. Every workshop is built for real people who enjoy food and want to learn something useful.
The session is not in a hurry, and the participants are few to maintain the focus. You go home with what you have created and the clear concept of how to recreate it back at home.
How to plan your session:
Booking a session is simple. You can message the team through Instagram at @culinarycraft.in or reach out by phone or email. The studio provides regular weekend workshops with fixed slots that fill up quickly.
The following are the things to remember when reserving your place:

What you leave with:
You leave with a full plate of sushi that you rolled yourself. You also leave with practical skills you can use at home if you want to make this again. More than that, you leave with a shared experience that feels different from the usual weekend plan.
Here is what most people take away from this session:
