PART 1: Greatest Hits World Food Tour: Sakura (Japanese/Sushi)

Reservation opens Fri, Dec 26 · 12:00 PM
Let's roll into our next World Food Tour event! We're heading back to Sakura Sushi for a night of fresh fish, creative specialty rolls, and delectable Japanese cuisine. This is the perfect opportunity to enjoy high-quality sushi and explore a massive menu that has something for every palate, from classic rolls to savory hot entrees.

Why You Should Join Us:
Sakura is known for its extensive menu, offering everything from beautiful sashimi and sushi platters to unique, mouth-watering specialty rolls like the Pink Lady Roll (wrapped in pink soy paper) or the spicy, savory Dynamite Roll. If you're not a fan of raw fish, no worries—they also offer excellent hot kitchen dishes, including tempura, ramen, teriyaki, and hibachi options. It's a great place for engaging conversation in a welcoming atmosphere while savoring some of the best Japanese flavors the area has to offer.

What's the Plan?
We'll be gathering at Sakura to sample a wide variety of Japanese offerings. Given the extensive menu, we'll order a selection of shared appetizers like Pork Gyoza (dumplings) and maybe a Tuna Tartar to start. Then, everyone can choose their own favorite rolls, sushi, or a cooked main course from the kitchen. This communal approach allows us to try more of what Sakura has to offer!

The Deets:

• BYOB: Plan to bring your favorite wine, beer, or sake to complement the meal.
• Cost: We will plan to order some shared appetizers and sushi. Feel free to order a dinner entree of your own. Please anticipate the total cost to be approximately $40-$55 per person (including tax and a 20% tip). To make bill-splitting easier, please bring cash.
• Allergies/Dietary Needs: Sakura is excellent with variety, but please inform me of any allergies or dietary restrictions (especially shellfish or gluten) as soon as you RSVP so I can discuss them with the restaurant ahead of time.
• Important: I will send a confirmation message a day or two before our visit to finalize the headcount. If your plans change, please update your RSVP to "Not Going" promptly. This is crucial for reservation management! You must confirm your attendance by the morning of the event.

Can't wait to enjoy some amazing sushi and great company with you! I hope you will join us for Part 2 of the evening, dancing to 80s music at Parx Casino.
