SUGARFISH by Sushi Nozawa Opens in Studio City
One of my favorite sushi places is Sushi Nozawa, it's all about the fish. Over the years, I've gotten to know Nozawa san and his wife Yumiko san. After 25 years in Studio City, I was sad when he retired and closed his namesake restaurant at the end of February 2012. "Famed Studio City sushi joint closes its doors" ABC7 News video Chef Kazunori Nozawa* BUT, he's partners in " SUGARFISH by Sushi Nozawa " and this Studio City location was converted to his partnership's namesake. Scheduled to open to the public on Thursday, May 17th, the Nozawas were kind enough to invite me to the pre-opening tasting. Although the sign is still reads "SUSHI NOZAWA", the front of the restaurant has a new look... Inside, the interior and layout has changed. It's a much different place than when I first walked in the doors 12+ years ago. I was greeted warmly by Nozawa san and Yumiko san as we were seated in the dining room....
