Editorial Review of
Kamikaze 7 Sushi
Kevin Roberts is making moves in the Gaslamp Quarter. The cookbook author, former “Next Food Network Star” contestant and self-proclaimed ‘food dude’ first got his hands dirty downtown at East Village Tavern & Bowl, putting his twist on cool bar food. But don’t expect any wings or burgers at Kamikaze 7, his new venture taking over the former Shorelines Gallery space on Market St. Kamikaze 7 will be an edgy sushi spot, putting the fun back into the dining experience. Translation: sake bombs welcome, real scorpions may appear in scorpion rolls. Roberts brought in Gregory Okshteyn (famous for being Jay-Z’s guy) and consultant group Jaime Partners (Searsucker, Flavor Del Mar), and is rumored to have received recipes from notable New York sushi chef Jiro Ono. Sounds like a downtown hot spot in the making.
