In collaboration with JFOODO (The Japan Food Product Overseas Promotion Center) to promote the Niigata-Koshihikari rice, Tomi Sushi is running a promotion for their Ebi Tempura Roll ($15, U.P. $18) that is made using this rice from the Niigata prefecture. Tasting the Koshihikari rice, I noticed that it has characteristics of having a tinge of sweetness with a fluffy texture even when cold, and all these traits complement well with the tempura prawn and brininess of the tobiko. Want to try the Koshihikari rice? Head down to Tomi Sushi and enjoy the Ebi Tempura Roll at a promotional rate from now to 10 February 2024.

There is also the maguro promotion whereby selected tuna items are going at 50% off such as the Maguro Zanmai set ($32.50, U.P. $65), which is also made using 100% Niigata-Koshihikari rice.
