A new branch of The Sushi Co is set to open its doors in Muswell Hill this Saturday, 25 July. The restaurant, located on the site formerly occupied by Redemption Roasters cafe, marks the 35th store for the expanding chain. It will feature a live sushi kitchen where customers can observe chefs preparing a variety of dishes, from traditional rolls to poke bowls and hot meals.
Grand Opening Celebrations
The grand opening event, scheduled to begin at noon on Saturday, will offer a range of attractions for early visitors. These include complimentary sushi rolls, a prize wheel, balloon art, face painting, and a bubble show, all accompanied by live music from a saxophonist. The Sushi Co aims to provide a fresh dining experience, with manager Talha Tahir emphasising that food is prepared to order. "Our point of difference is that our food is 'minutes fresh'," Tahir stated, as reported by Ham & High. "Every other premium sushi chain boxes their food then keeps it in the chiller for hours. Ours is made fresh to order, every single time."
