To celebrate world famous chef Nobu Matsuhisa's birthday on March 10, NOBU InterContinental Hong Kong is paying tribute to sushi, the soul of Nobu-san's cuisine, with a special NOBU Sushi Set Dinner Menu (available from March 1 - April 30).

When Nobu-san was just a little boy, his older brother took him to a sushi restaurant for the first time. Inspired by the “theatre” of the sushi chef “performing” for his guests with precision and showmanship, Nobu-san was inspired from childhood to become a sushi chef. This first experience was the spark that inspired the World of Nobu which includes 40 Nobu Restaurants, 11 Matsuhisa Restaurants and 10 Nobu Hotels in 48 cities and 24 countries, spanning five continents.

NOBU InterContinental Hong Kong Executive Sushi Chef Satoru Hashimoto, who has over a decade of experience at Nobu restaurants in Europe, is creating his Nobu-style sushi, sashimi, handrolls and Kohlrabi Salad, while Executive Chef Rhys Cattermoul is preparing his delicate Tempura Selection and Miso Soup.

NOBU Sushi Set Dinner Menu (5-courses): HK$888 per person
