Gold Winner Wasabi House
Silver Winner Sushi Nami Royale, Halifax
Bronze Winner Suzuki Restaurant
Wasabi House had only been open for just over a year when a small fire in January forced it to close for almost two months. Sushi lovers sorely missed it and, to everyone’s delight, it’s back. “We appreciate that a lot of our regular customers came back,” says Richard Wu, chef and co-owner of Wasabi House with his wife, Michelle Lin. “We just want to say thank you.” Wu says he doesn’t like to compare his restaurant to other sushi restaurants; he just consistently works to make the best food for the people. Consistent quality, prompt delivery, cheap happy hour eats and a friendly staff ensures that nothing can stop Wasabi’s loyal return customers.
