Debra John — November 26, 2024 — Lifestyle
Sushi Momo, led by Chef Christian Ventura, redefines Japanese cuisine with a fully plant-based approach, offering a modern and innovative dining experience. Originally celebrated as one of "Montreal’s premier sushi establishments," Sushi Momo has brought its acclaimed concept to Toronto, where it continues to blend ethical dining with culinary artistry.
The menu features an array of thoughtfully crafted dishes, including five-piece futomaki options such as 'Melitzana' (eggplant, arugula, sundried tomato, cheese panko, basil, and truffle sauces, flambéed), 'Darling' (cauliflower tempura, mango, avocado, red pickled onion, pine nuts, and spicy mayo), and 'Delhi' (vegan shrimp, bell pepper tempura, Japanese curry, and spicy mayo). For textural variety, the 'Krispy Rice' offerings include 'Avocado & Black Garlic,' 'King Oyster,' 'Caviar,' and 'Truffle.'
Complementing these innovative dishes is a seasonal menu of cocktails ensuring a well-rounded and memorable dining experience for all guests in a contemporary space.
