Grand opening this week with samples, prizes

A new sushi place called Sushic opened on campus this fall in the SUB.

Sushic will have its grand opening on Sept. 8th where all students can attend to win door prizes, eat samples and much more from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Those attending the grand opening also have a the chance to win a Coca-Cola mini-fridge.

The owner and manager of Sushic, Sui Kng, is excited to open his first business on ULM’s campus. He said students can always expect something new at Sushic, especially since there are 49 different kinds of sushi.

Kng said, “Our sushi company is great, not too expensive and very cheap for the students.”

Kng said not all sushi is raw. Most of the sushi at Sushic is all fresh and cooked. Rye and vinegar are common ingredients in his rolls.

“Sushi is my favorite food,” said Kristi Simmons, a junior dental hygiene major from Shreveport. “I love that I can grab it in between classes without even leaving campus.”

According to Kng, Simmons’ favorite rolls, the Temptation Crab and the Shrimp Tempura, happen to be favorites with most other customers as well.

Sushic is open from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. during the week with sushi also boxed and ready to go at other times.
