overall a decent product January 9, 2009 Jeremy Labarge (San Luis Obispo Ca) I felt some of the descriptions in the book were too sparse but the kit has all the required sushi making tools.
Excellent Product January 7, 2009 Sara (indianapolis, indiana) This contains a book, sushi plates and chopsticks along with a rolling mat. I use the equipment in it more often than the book as the recipes tend to be more "hard core" than I am. The book contains extensive color photos along with recipes and easy to follow instructions.
Very pleased November 14, 2008 Amy Whittington (Hazlehurst, MS United States) I was very excited when this came in the mail. For under $14, you really get a lot, and everything in the kit is pretty good quality. I do have to say, I think the reason the price is so low is because of a manufacturing defect: The center drawer is glued closed, and you have to pry it open the get the book out. (However, once you finally get the book out, you probably won't want to put it back in, so no big deal, right?) The chopsticks are big and sturdy, and feel good in your hands. The dipping trays are pretty (not the ones shown on the top of the box...they look more like ceramic dishes with a painted design...very tasteful.) The rolling mat is nothing fancy; just the usual bamboo mat. You also get two chopstick rests made of stone. My favorite thing was the book. It is not very big, but full of great information. It gives you quite a few sushi combinations to try, as well as how to make authentic sushi rice and different kinds of soup. There is advice on serving, eating, and cutting. It is a very well-written book, even though it is small. The color photos are full-page and very professional. It is well worth $14, so I would get this, even if you decide to purchase another kit...you will NOT be disappointed.
Great item! October 21, 2008 Trina Strong I gave this to my daughter for her birthday and she was elated! A lovely kit for her to try her hand at making her beloved sushi. I would highly recommend this to any first timer or even experienced sushi maker.
Awesome Birthday Present! October 15, 2008 Dave T (Maryland) I bought this for a birthday present. I sincerely contemplated keeping it for myself. Getting a sushi rolling mat for this price is a bargain by itself. The rest of the kit appears great although I haven't had a chance to test it.
