Enjoy a vegan sushi demonstration with tastings as you discover nigiri, rolls, and inari in a relaxed evening

Back by popular demand! An evening of flavour, creativity, and connection as Balarama once again shares the craft of vegan sushi-making. From delicate hand-pressed pieces to beautifully rolled varieties, you’ll watch each step come to life in an engaging demonstration that’s both practical and inspiring.

Balarama’s grounded and approachable style makes the process easy to follow—even if it’s your first time exploring sushi-making. There’ll be space for questions throughout, and plenty of tastings along the way—so come hungry!

On the menu for the demo:

  • Hand-pressed sushi (Nigiri)
  • Sushi rolls (Maki-zushi)
  • Tofu pocket sushi (Inari-zushi)

Afterwards, stay on for a full vegan dinner and dessert, freshly served and enjoyed in good company—a deliciously relaxed way to spend your evening.

Event followed by a plant-based dinner and dessert, all included in your ticket!
