Not a fan of sushi? Then check out Sooshi — a new sushi-style treat from New Zealand Natural ice cream. Though it may look a lot like your neighborhood rainbow roll, these sweet snacks are made purely of real fruit and ice cream. Instead of the outside ‘nori’ sheet, Sooshi sports a green apple flavored strip. Rice is replaced with vanilla or fruit ice cream, and rather than vegetables, the center’s filled with lemon, apricot, raspberry, or blackcurrant fruit puree. Though word on the street is that it’s already super sugary, those with a real sweet tooth can top it off with a squirt of chocolate ‘soy sauce’. So next time you’re out for a sushi dinner, consider skipping the California roll and heading straight to dessert.

The World’s most expensive sushi

Gold-laced sushi is only appropriate for people whom live large and lavish lifestyles. Made by ambitious Filipino chef Angelito Araneta Jr, our favourite seaweed treat comes wrapped in a thin 24-carat gold leaf and affluently encrusted with .20-carat African diamonds on top. It also comes with a $2700 price tag, making it the world’s most expensive sushi to date. While it can be found in a restaurant in Manila, the chef says his unique fishy roll is often used during courtship and marriage proposals.

Thought they would have called it “Frooshi” at least… quite confusing for servers, no, sooshi instead of sushi? Chocolate soy on my akami nigiri, no thank you ma’am

We asked some of New York’s more creative residents where they like to hang out in the city, and got a mixed bag of responses back. We’ll be running their insider tips over the next few weeks. This is illustrator Marcos Chin on his favorite arcade bar, aptly named … wait for it … Barcade: ‘Barcade is a time-warp into the 1980s when going to the arcade was the major past time for many of my friends and I. Lined throughout the space are a series of classic 25 cent video arcade games, like Q-bert, Donkey Kong, Arkanoid and Tetris. There’s also a pool table near the back of the space, and a terrific selection of beers to choose from. And yes, you can drink-and-play. It’s located near the Lorimer stop on the L train, at 388 Union Avenue, in Williamsburg’. Read more
