Continuing to bring high quality and affordable Japanese cuisine to customers, Sushiro is set to open the first international branch of their popular izakaya restaurant at The Hennessy in Wan Chai.
Since opening their first conveyor belt restaurant in Hong Kong in 2019, the brand has taken the city by storm. The new location is set to open on 3 August, and it will offer guests over 100 kinds of Japanese dishes and sake in a vibrant, authentic izakaya experience.
The restaurant’s name comes from the important symbol of Japanese traditional sake-making practice – ‘sugi-dama’ which means ‘cedar ball’ in Japanese – where sake breweries throughout Japan hang spheres of green cedar in winter to signify that freshly pressed sake from the new brewing season is available. The cedar sphere symbol is used in Sugidama’s brand logo and displayed on the storefront.
Popular dishes from the restaurant’s menu include an assorted sashimi platter, mixed tempura platter and the Sugidama potato salad. There is also sushi selections include salmon nigiri, salmon ikura gunkan, and grilled flounder fin nigiri.
