Food Fusion: Sushi Nachos

Sarah Nicole in Food Trends on Jul 27, 2017

Yes, Sushi Nachos.

This is not a drill. This is not a dream.

This is reality, and you can order them for yourselves to find out what the fuss is all about.

In the food world there’s often these fad trends of food fusions that have us a little mind blown. In the world of sushi fusions we first saw the sushi burrito, then the sushi burger.

But sushi NACHOS? It’s finger food at it’s finest. Layers of everything you love, making each bite unique and explosive. Making those layers accented with everything that makes sushi great? Well, that’s just pretty special.

Sushi nachos were the brainchild of Toronto Restauranteur, Chef Harrison Hennick who took his sushi nachos into downtown Hamilton, Ontario, Canada with his restaurant Nique.

Those sushi nachos? They are the very first item on the menu.

Harrison’s genius took what sounded like a simple fusion of foods and brought it to a whole new level. Starting with house-made wonton chips as the base “nacho” then topped with sushi-grade tuna, topped with the perfect combination of flavors and garnishes to finish off this dish in a way that will keep you doing two things – 1) thinking about it for days to come and 2) planning your next trip to Nique (trust me, this is my current state of life).

We ventured to the restaurant before they opened, experiencing some behind the scenes of the restaurant that only had us more pumped up to enjoy exactly what we came for…the gosh dang sushi nachos. Now, to be fair, the entire menu was pretty creative and tantalizing from their famous fried chicken, to squid ink risotto. So, no matter what your palate is in the mood for, you’ll be satisfied and wowed. They are definitely so much more than sushi nachos, but even if they only served that one thing, I have a feeling we’d all be going back for more.

So plug in Nique Restaurant into your GPS, and go make your dreams come true (that is, if you have the same sushi nacho dreams that I do).
