Clashing Cultural Cuisines

The Sushi Groove Sushi Burger is an East Meets West Creation

— August 3, 2012 — Art & Design
Combining the best of two worlds, the sushi burger is exactly what it sounds like: a sushi roll in the shape of a burger. Created by the folks at Sushi Groove, this bite-sized meal is as tasty as it is adorable to look at.

The delectable creation starts off with two rice patties, shaped to emulate classic burger buns. Sandwiched in between are an assortment of condiments, toppings and meats. If you are looking for a breakfast-themed bite, the succulent fried egg sushi burger is sure to satisfy your cravings. If you are looking for something crispy, the fried chicken option looks mighty good. The burger is bundled in traditional Japanese seaweed paper, which doubles as the wrapper for this portable meal.

The Sushi Groove sushi burger is an east meets west novelty that will have patrons salivating in curiosity.
