The original Sushiyoshi was opened in Osaka 28 years ago by chef-patron Hiroki Nakanoue. Nakanoue presents a unique sushi experience for his guests, fusing traditional Edomae-style sushi with contemporary flavours and novel execution. The Hong Kong outpost will mimic the sushi experience offered in its Japanese branch; in other words, a playful experience for sushi aficionados.

The Hong Kong branch of Sushiyoshi features a 200-year old Japanese cypress wood counter, seating 12 in total. The establishment will be headed by head chef Sugawara, using seafood handpicked by Nakanoue and flown-in daily.
