The marriage of Africa and sushi
The box created last year by Mory Sacko for Sushi Shop is back this fall. A striking collaboration which testifies to the creativity of the chef of African origin and his love for Japan by combining the best of both cultures. As 20 minutes mentioned last year, thrill-seekers must absolutely taste the MoScoville Signature rolls from the chef: tuna makis garnished with aromatic herbs and chili peppers that you will taste in a crescendo order, from least strong to strongest, an experience that is both stunning and succulent.
“I hope that people feel that I had a blast making them,” the chef of the Michelin-starred restaurant MoSuke confided last year to 20 minutes. Rest assured, we can smell his peppers.
Signature box €26.90, MoScoville Signature Rolls €12.90. Rens. : www.sushishop.fr/fr/livraison/mory-sacko
