# Sushi Burrito Restaurants Sushirrito Combines Two Separate Meals for an Epic Hybrid By Meghan Young | Published 2015-06-25 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sushirrito References: [neatorama](http://www.neatorama.com/2015/06/24/The-Sushirrito-Is-A-Combination-of-the-Worlds-Best-Foods/) & [sushirrito](http://www.sushirrito.com/) Sushirrito is not only the name of a new restaurant found in the San Francisco Bay Area, it's also the name of the epic meals they serve. A hybrid between a [sushi and burrito](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cali-burrito), people could easily mistake the Sushirrito for a [large sushi roll](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/honey-maple-smoked-salmon-roll) in general. After all, the Sushirrito still uses nori as the wrap instead of bread. After all, that would be a lot of carbs with the rice included. On the Sushirrito website, it states that it is "[revolutionizing sushi culture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sushi-momo)," which is a bold and arguably controversial statement. It would be interesting to see the response from those who love these traditional dishes. Yet people are also looking for new and exciting experiences. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 40% | Activity: 46% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Sushi-burrito Fusion:** Uptake on two separate popular cuisines opens opportunity for entrepreneurs to combine concepts. - **Revolutionized Sushi Culture:** New approach to serving sushi sparks companies to rethink traditional dishes for modern audiences. - **Ethnic-fusion Cuisine:** Combining different cultural dishes creates potential for unique gastronomic experiences and menu innovation. ### Where This Applies - **Fast Casual Dining:** Opportunity to create trendy and innovative dining experiences that cater to consumers' desire for speedy, yet satisfying meals. - **Food Truck and Mobile Kitchens:** Ability to offer unique food crossovers and niche dining experiences without significant overhead costs associated with brick-and-mortar restaurants. - **Franchising:** Opportunity for existing fast-food chains to develop fusion food concepts and expand their target audience with a more diverse menu selection. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Convenient Sushi Bakes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sushi-bakes.md) - [Cajun-Asian Fusion Sushi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tempura-shrimp-sushi-roll.md) - [Tuna-Packed Poke Burritos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fresh-poke-burrito.md) - [Chili Crisp California Rolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/spicy-sushi-roll.md) - [Oven-Ready Sushi Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crushi.md) - [Square Spicy Tuna Sushi](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pressed-spicy-tuna-roll.md) - [Elevated Restaurant Sushi Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sushi-experience.md) - [Hatch Chile Sushi Rolls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crunchy-hatch-chile-chicken-sushi-roll.md) - [Elevated Sushi Offerings](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kura-sushi-1.md)
