Another great year for sushi!

To close out 2015, we wanted to thank all of our friends, guests and partners for a great year of sushi, robata and Japanese cuisine. We created more than a few memories with flavorful dishes from the sushi and robata bar’s, spirited concoctions from the lounge, and hosted celebrations, both public & private. We provided a gathering place for new friends who shared dishes, thoughts and moments. Relive some of those experiences with us!

A month-long benefit designed to draw exposure to the award-winning food & wine scene in Orlando while raising money for a local charity in need. This year, $1 from every meal served was donated to ELEVATE Orlando. We were happy to help!

Pop-up Event Booth

Cows n’ Cabs Event | Winter Park 2015

Community Events – This year, we took the show on the road and attended a variety of events designed to help benefit Orlando area charities, and support the growth of Orlando cuisine in the eyes of the foodie world. Some of those off-site events included: Taste of Windermere, Wine & Dine on the 9, Cows n’ Cabs, Taste of Dr. Phillips and Taste of the Nations.

Not one to keep the crew travelling, we also rolled out a new interactive experience within the building. November marked our first of what will become a bi-monthly event for us in 2016…Behind the Knife, a sushi class experience. The class lets 25 guests get hands-on and learn to roll their own (sushi that is) with Orlando’s sushi masters. Our friends at SporkOrlando published a great piece on the class, check it out.
