SPLASH REPORT: SUSHIDELIC is a new restaurant created and designed by Japanese artist Sebastian Masuda from Harajuku’s Monster Cafe’s fame in Tokyo. We were in attendance at the private opening party last night, and of course, we made a SPLASH!
Upon stepping in, be prepared to feel as if you traveled to your favorite childhood Wonderland as you will feel nostalgia from the ambiance. SUSHI DELIC is a happy place – it is elegantly designed with subtle and bold pieces. From the neon pink decor onto the rotating cats hanging from the ceiling, the lipstick tube shaped lightbulbs, and the conveyor created the allure of being whisked away while still in NYC.
I recommend all sushi enthusiasts and those who are into culinary experiences to go to SUSHI DELIC in Soho, located on 177 Lafayette Street, New York, NY 10013. The DJ pumped up the jams and the transitions were fire, the delicious appetizers were making their way around (my favorite was the Salmon roll), and an assortment of Japanese sake, craft beer, and mixed drinks were served. Overall, it was a great night!
Background: Get ready to embrace the immersive “kawaii” (describes the culture of celebrating all things adorable and embracing fictional characters as the embodiment of positivity) experience with spectacular and idiosyncratic designs, a cool vibe, and the next upcoming hotspot. Sushi Delic unique aesthetic is captivating, and the drinks and bites are nothing short of delectable.
Masuda has long pushed for kawaii culture to be an inclusive means of expression and a way to bring the world together. “If I can help people recognize the kawaii spirit in others, acknowledge this inquisitiveness, then I think I can create better relationships and a better world.”
CONGRATULATIONS SEBASTIAN on opening your first NYC establishment! SUSHI DELIC opens TODAY, June 28th. Make your reservation TODAY by emailing info@sushidelic.net to partake in an innovative, creative, and unique sushi experience. SUSHI DELIC Website
