YO! Sushi to launch menu with 100 new dishes


Popular Japanese dining chain, YO! Sushi is to launch a new menu across its UK sites offering 100 new dishes on 8 March.

The new menu, named #ThisisTokyo on social media, includes dishes such as Okonomiyaki (pictured) - a savoury cabbage-based pancake, Buta No Kakuni - Japanese braised pork belly, Octopus & Mackerel Sushi, and a Matcha swiss roll.

Group executive chef, Mike Lewis, commented, “I’m really excited about this new menu – it hosts a bigger range of species than we have ever had before and it really celebrates all the different food we have available, from sushi and salads to desserts and also hot food.

“Everything on this menu has been inspired directly from my research trips to Japan – when I visited in 2014 I tried an amazing Chazuke again and have since been trying to develop a recipe that works for us to finally have it on the menu.

“Four months ago, I tried some of the best chicken wings in Nagoya that made me realise we should have them on our menu, sitting proudly alongside the Tuna Katsu I ate in the outer Tsujuki fish market.”
