The Fuji Sushi Bar at the Sheza Tower in the Diplomatic Area is a cozy restaurant offering a wide choice of fresh delights.
The design, concept and menu of the venue is the brainchild of manager Shaikh Abdul Jabbar who explained that the idea was to offer a traditional Japanese setting with a modern twist.
He said: “Before opening in September 2007, I had travelled to Tokyo where I was able to gather a lot of information on the different techniques, styles and skills used in Japanese cooking.
“We brought in a lot of things from Japan to give guests a warm and cozy dining ambience.”
The venue offers a variety of sushi including sashimi, maki sushi with either cooked or raw ingredients, nigiri sushi, seafood on rice, traditional temaki rolls on seaweed stuffed with rice and seafood and a Teppanyaki cart selling grills.
There is also a section offering modern rolls which involve a selection of sushi with added ingredients.
The restaurant will start a teppanyaki station shortly where chefs will perform tricks, crack jokes and juggle salt & pepper shakers.
