Typical exercises start with teaching the basics of how to make sushi or ramen, how to plate it, and how to speak Japanese to everyone. Then the group is divided into smaller teams and given time to create their own unique dish or presentation as a team.  After is up, everyone faces the judgment time!  The Nombe team will look at each team's presentation carefully, taste the sushi or ramen, and quiz everyone on Japanese words, then choose a winner.  The winning team will receive a bottle of Sake.
