Sushi MAHANA Announces Exclusive 14-Course Nigiri Fundraising Luncheon
This one-day-only pop-up event offers glimpse into upscale restaurant’s acclaimed omakase experience in support of North Shore Crisis Services Society
NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C. (November 15, 2023) — North Vancouver’s Sushi MAHANA is renowned for its exquisite omakase dinner experiences, but for one day only this fall, the restaurant will open its doors in the daytime for a rare and exciting Nigiri Fundraising Luncheon on Sunday, November 26.
Since opening in January 2023, Sushi MAHANA has quickly amassed a loyal following for its Kyushu-style sushi, which artfully utilizes a variety of components to highlight and enhance the flavours in the fish. Sushi MAHANA offers a one-of-a-kind blend of flavours featuring hand-selected local and imported ingredients — the result is a breathtaking high-end chef’s choice omakase experience that changes with the seasons, presented in Sushi MAHANA’s elegant, intimate dining room.
Sushi MAHANA’s special Nigiri Fundraising Luncheon will showcase an exclusive 14-course nigiri menu presented by Head Chef Hiroshi Hoshiko and Sous Chef Rika “Ghinn” Ginnaga, specially priced at $89 per guest. While Sushi MAHANA’s Omakase Introductory Course and Premium Omakase Course is typically offered at $200 per person (20 courses) and $250 per person (25 courses) respectively, the Nigiri Fundraising Luncheon is thoughtfully priced to give guests a glimpse into the restaurant’s fine dining omakase sushi experience, while benefitting a worthy local cause.
A portion of the proceeds from Sushi MAHANA’s Nigiri Fundraising Luncheon will be donated to the North Shore Crisis Services Society. This non-profit organization is dedicated to assisting women and children in abusive situations with safe housing, wrap-around support services, free counselling, and more.
