During a visit to Iwasaka inside the Aeon Mall Okayama, foodies will only find it fitting to seek out Soft Susheam—a sushi ice cream dessert.
The hybrid dish is a mix between a soft serve ice cream and sushi, prepared with a scoop of vinegar rice, tuna, corn and a few crab sticks. To mimic the creamy look of ice cream, the entire dessert is served on a cone and topped with a generous drizzle of mayonnaise.
Now that the rise in foodie culture is inspiring the average person to be more adventurous with what they choose to eat, unconventional hybrids are popping up to fuse two items that are already crowd-pleasers on their own. Since the Cronut, even more bizarre varieties are emerging all over the world, including this sushi ice cream.
