Kura x Snoopy Collaboration@Sawtelle ★★★

Snoopy Collaboration at the Revolving Sushi Bar. Capsules to collect at $3.70 each. All plates $3.70. They raised their price from $3.55 per plate to $3.70 recently. Free set of 3 Snoopy cups with $70 spent (before tax, equivalent to 19 plates) Jan 3-7, while supplies last. Sushi quality was decent this time. Sawtelle location has better quality later in the night (after 8) vs. earlier in the evening. Tuna Zuke Sushi is always my favorite. Download their app and to wait in the virtual queue. Free 1 hour validated parking at lot.
