When Takuya Matsuda was an up-and-coming sushi chef living in California, he said he spent a lot of time in Las Vegas. It was there, at a Cirque du Soleil show, that he came up with the concept for his new Montreal restaurant, Okeya Kyujiro, which opened downtown for take-out on Friday, January 8, 2021.

Part sushi spot and part theatre, Okeya Kyujiro promises to be an experience unlike anything the city's ever seen — or tasted — before.

But there comes a time when every Montreal sushi lover must accept that it is indeed possible to have too much of a good thing. That's why it's best to change it up every once in a while. Luckily, the food gods have made it possible to do this while still maintaining the essence of our favourite Japanese dish. First, there were sushi burritos. Then came poke bowls. Now, introducing baked sushi. 

It has the potential to be the city's next viral food trend. Especially since Sushi Bake Montreal recently opened for business.
