"How, exactly, were these rolls constructed at Suka Sushi, the relatively new eatery in NoMad at 61 Lexington Avenue? What's in them? Is soy sauce part of the experience? Can they really be eaten on the go, or do they require the kind of gastronomic pyrotechnics that doom a trend to obscurity? Of course, we had to try them for ourselves."
"We promise it sounds much more complicated than it is in real life-and that goes for the menu as well. At least for now, Suka Sushi isn't angling for world-class recognition for its flavors or techniques. The rolls are fine and perfectly suited for a to-go lunch given the way they're presented. (Eating on the subway is a big no-no, but if you're going to do it, a relatively clean sushi roll contained in a push-up tube might just be the way to go.)"
Suka Sushi in NoMad sells viral push-up-style sushi rolls housed in pop-up contraptions with detachable soy sauce tubes. The menu currently features seven classic roll options: California, Philadelphia, unagi, spicy tuna, shrimp mango, veggie, and Alaska. Each roll is pre-cut inside its tube; the soy sauce is poured into the larger tube and then used to push pieces upward from the bottom. Flavors remain basic and familiar rather than experimental, making the offerings suitable for quick, portable lunches. The presentation emphasizes convenience and cleanliness for on-the-go consumption while delivering an enjoyable, playful eating experience.
