Think all sushi is the same? Sushizen will change your mind.

It’s not every day you get a sushi delivery in such a unique box, with no idea what’s inside until you lift the flap and get drawn in. Inside, you find a clever cardboard bento box complete with ginger, soy sauce in a tiny tube, and wasabi, all ready for dipping your sushi. Carmina had ordered her twelve pieces sushi from Sushizen through Grab food which was located in Quezon City . Sushizen doesn't have a social media account can try looking up in Grab or Food Panda incase would like to place an order. Here is the address: The Zen Daily Box includes 4 pieces of crunchy salmon special, 4 pieces of tropical spicy salmon roll, and 4 pieces of dynamite chicken cutlet roll for 299.00 pesos ($5.07), excluding delivery and tip. Carmina was surprised that the sushi was bite-sized and quite small, so it’s best to order additional food if you want a more filling meal. NOT SPONSORED.
