“The idea is to serve sushi for people who can’t afford to eat sushi in expensive restaurants. I give them sushi in a sealed box that I can carry around anywhere, on a bike to showcase the food. People come from everywhere to try sushi, thank God.”

Samir had previously worked in hotels and restaurants, before starting his project in 2019

Sushi has been gaining popularity in Egypt

with various sushi restaurants and chains popping up around the country

(Mahmoud Sayed, Customer)

“It’s a good idea because some people don’t like to go into a restaurant to eat sushi because of the high prices, or they want to walk on the street. When they find the bike selling the (sushi) piece for 10 Egyptian pounds (30 cents), it’s going to be easier for them (to try it) - even if they are two and each get a piece, it’s going to be easier than going to a restaurant.”
