Curated by chef Abe — a finalist on Morimoto Sushi Master, Season 2.

What it's like

Most catering feeds the room. This is what the room gathers around.

No buffet line, no chafing dishes — a live station your guests crowd around as each roll is handed over warm and crisp. It's the centerpiece of the night, not the corner of it.
