-Sushi, the Story of Legacy-  

Sushi MAHANA is named after our executive chef, Hiroshi Hoshiko’s daughter, Mahana Hoshiko. Hiroshi fondly remembers holding Mahana as a baby, and wondering whether his daughter, and generations after her, would ever have a chance to savour the art of sushi in its true and authentic--traditional--form, a form only rarely seen in the west.  And so, Hiroshi decided to go back to his roots on Kyushu Island where the original style of sushi, Edomae-Sushi has been adapted to its climate and the culture, forming its own unique Kyushu Style Sushi; local blue fish or white fish are uniquely prepared with Jukusei (dry-aged) methods, then seasoned with citrus, sea salt and handcrafted vinegar.  

MAHANA Sushi adopts this Kyushu Style’s unexpected combinations of premium ingredients. Hiroshi creates a perfect harmony of the finest flavors that will arouse your senses.  In addition to premium fish flown from Japan, Hiroshi incorporates local resources as much as possible to lower our carbon footprint, creating a sustainable, one-of-a-kind MAHANA Sushi. 

This is the story that a loving father will tell to his daughter: Sushi, the Story of Legacy.
