Manchester Social 101 was invited to preview the Yo! Sushi sushi making school at Manchester’s Arndale Centre to celebrate the launch of ‘Get Your Eat On’, which has been a month long campaign for whole of August that has teased the shoppers’ taste-buds with tempting foodie offers.

Now in its fourth year, the summer the campaign is running until the 31 August. Hungry customers can pick-up a voucher leaflet in-centre packed full of great discounts from an array of retailers.

Yo! Sushi is taking part in the campaign, hence our invitation to the Sushi School. I was joined by six other Manchester-based foodie bloggers to learn the art of sushi making, perfectly accompanied by some sparkling wine and beer! We were told that Yo! Sushi has been established since 1997 and that there are now over 80 restaurants worldwide.

The evening was so much fun, we made everything from Californian hand rolls to cucumber maki, all made with ethically sourced fish of course! You can see some samples of my creations here:

We were also treated to an amazing goodie bag to take away and help perfect our newly found skills!

The yummy foodie offers are valid until 31st August and are available to all customers visiting the centre, as well as being available to download from www.manchesterarndale.com

David Allinson, centre director at Manchester Arndale commented: “Every year our summer food campaign aims to cater for all tastes. We have numerous food outlets serving up international flavours including Japanese, British, Mexican, Portuguese. We all need a pit- stop from shopping to relax and enjoy lunch, or to pick-up a quick money-saving lunch deal while taking a break from the office and our ‘Get Your Eat On’ campaign fits the bill perfectly. With a full month’s worth of food offers, August could prove to be a money-saver for those who use their voucher booklet wisely.”
