Morimoto Asia Street Food
The Sushi Showdown is coming to Morimoto Asia at Disney Springs, and it’s bringing together some of the most talented sushi chefs in the city to see who will take home the gold. The Orlando sushi scene is only a couple of months away, and we have the details for you.
Some of the top Orlando chefs will be heading to Morimoto Asia for a sushi showdown. Each chef will create both a signature sushi with rice and a cooked small plate using the same featured fish. The showdown will take place on September 21st. Session one will be from 5:30 PM to 7:30 PM, and session two will be from 8:30 PM to 10:30 PM.
