The art of Sushi and the sport of Sumo wrestling share a common thread from Japan's 'Edo' period of the 1700's. It was at this time that Tokyo went by the name Edo and during this era the age old tradition of Sumo wrestling was gaining recognition as an official sport in Japan. At the same time a unique food style was beginning to develop by slicing seasonable local fish and placing it on top of bite-sized vinegared rice balls. From it's origin over 300 years ago, the Sushi style we know today has become extremely popular and is served throughout the world. So come down to see us at SUMO SUSHI and enjoy a taste of the Orient!
