I have to thank my friend and fellow sushi junkie, Deanna of Maple Leaf Mommy, for pointing out the super important fact that Toronto has a sushi festival, that promises all kinds of exciting and YUM. A two-day festival at the gorgeous Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre, during the evenings of next Thursday and Friday (March 5th & 6th,) and tickets are going quick! Its not hard to imagine this event selling out as attendees will be able to explore every type of sushi imaginable across the globe, enjoy artisan sushi tastings, learn from local and celebrity chefs, check out the latest and greatest in culinary accessories and gifts, and sample from 100s of sushi creations (even sample some of Ontario's finest premium beer too!) Essentially, the festival is going to be one spectacular foodie experience. Dramatization of the sushi eating practice. You'll need to go to the Toronto Sushi Festival yourself for the full foodie experience. ;) I have a few favourite sushi spots across Toronto, and with over 20 Local and International Japanese Restaurants participating this year, I'm entirely looking forward to adding a few more to my list! Pairing this with an oyster bar (catered by John & Sons Oyster House,) over 30 arts and cultural vendors, and fun live entertainment (from local, international and global artists, but also, I understand there will also be karaoke involved,) the Toronto Sushi Festival is not to be missed. From the art vendors, I'm really looking forward to getting a closer look at the truly phenomenal miniature origami work of Mui-Ling Teh. Seriously, go check out this local Toronto artist's work out. I'm entirely in love with the orange fox, the dragon and the goat/lamb (it's the year of the goat according to the Chinese calendar, which I happen to fall under, lol.) And you know how I love technology right? Imagine fresh-tasting sushi at home, whenever you want (without having to break out the nori yourself.) Bishosku Sushi will be launching its thaw-and-serve, innovative flash-frozen sushi at the festival, making Bishosku Sushi the first and only sushi manufacturer in Canada, and its situated right here in Toronto! Cool, huh? I can't wait to try it out and see how well it fares to the just-made creations at the fest. Anyway, stop reading and go get your ticket on Eventbrite before they sell out! If you want the ultimate experience, there is a VIP ticket for the elite package, including a full service VIP lounge, a handcrafted sushi gift basket and kit!
