Informal Holiday Now Listed in Reference Book, Chase's Calendar of Events

2011-06-15

PALM BEACH GARDENS, FL, June 15, 2011 (Press-News.org) On June 18, 2011, RA Sushi Bar Restaurant is celebrating International Sushi Day, an informal holiday created to encourage sushi lovers around the world to eat more sushi. In honor of this special day, anyone who "likes" RA Sushi on Facebook can print a special offer good for one complimentary Tootsy Maki, redeemable at one of RA Sushi's 25 locations nationwide.

To make this holiday even more official, RA Sushi has declared June 18 as International Sushi Day in the 2011 Chase's Calendar of Events, the most comprehensive and authoritative reference book available on special events, worldwide holidays, civic observations, and more.

The complimentary Tootsy Maki certificate must be printed and redeemed between 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday, June 18, International Sushi Day. It is valid at any RA Sushi location: Arizona (Ahwatukee, Mesa, Scottsdale, Tempe and Tucson); California (Chino Hills, Corona, Huntington Beach, San Diego, Torrance and Tustin); Florida (Palm Beach Gardens, Pembroke Pines and South Miami); Georgia (Atlanta); Illinois (Chicago, Glenview and Lombard); Kansas (Leawood); Maryland (Baltimore); Nevada (Las Vegas); and Texas (Houston and Plano). For restaurant addresses and each location's Facebook page, visit http://www.RAsushi.com.

Sushi's presentation has evolved over the years, when it began as a means of preserving raw fish in Southeast Asia and eventually became a form of "fast food" sold from street vendors. Now a celebrated cuisine worldwide, sushi has become an art form, with each restaurant offering its own signature dishes of nigiri, sashimi, and maki. On International Sushi Day, sushi connoisseurs and sushi novices are encouraged to dine on their favorite RA Sushi dishes or explore the menu and try something new. Tootsy Maki is one of RA Sushi's most popular rolls containing kani kama crab mix, shrimp and cucumber, rolled and topped with crunchy tempura bits and drizzled with a sweet eel sauce.

See the certificate for official rules and details. This promotion is in no way sponsored, endorsed or administered by, or associated with Facebook.

RA Sushi Bar Restaurant, an upbeat, unconventional sushi bar, opened its first location in Scottsdale, Ariz. in October 1997. RA is best known for successfully combining distinctive sushi with a trendy, hip atmosphere. Fresh sushi is served to order along with outstanding Japanese fusion cuisine in a fun, lively environment. The result is a place that is both unpretentious and fashionable. Lunch is served from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. and dinner and bar hours vary per location. Happy Hour food and beverage specials are offered Monday through Saturday, 3 to 7 p.m.
