Like everyone else has already said, you need to check with your county/city. You also need to make sure you've got insurance, and are trained in safe food handling (Serve-Safe, etc.).
Please don't take this to personally, but as a HUGE sushi fan, I've got to point out that making sushi is an art. Many sushi chefs train under someone for years, with a chunk of that just learning how to make the rice. You also need to learn how to properly (and legally) transport the fish. Top-grade fish starts to go bad immediately, and when you're serving it raw, you can't hide anything. It sounds to me that you are thinking that you can head out to a fish market, ask a sushi bar a few questions, and hire yourself out as a real sushi chef/expert. When people hire you to come into their home to prepare something like this, they expect an expert. Maybe you could talk to a local sushi bar about an apprenticeship, so at least you can tell prospective clients that you have worked in a sushi bar.
Just my 2 cents.  |
