UMI Sushi “Push Pop” Experience
So we finally tried the viral UMI Sushi push pop sushi… and yeah, it’s exactly as ridiculous (and awesome) as it sounds.
We grabbed:
Flamin’ Hot Cheetos Roll
Salmon Philly Roll
First off, portions? Legit.
The rolls are actually a solid size, not some gimmick snack pretending to be sushi.
And the soy sauce tube?
Elite touch. Felt like we were performing sushi surgery in public.
There was a bit of a wait but honestly…
when a crowd forms around sushi like it’s a sneaker drop, you know you’re in the right place.
Ordering was easy with kiosks (bonus: no-contact option), and they’ve got a whole station loaded with:
wasabi
spicy mayo
eel sauce
So you can build your own chaos.
Downside?
This is 100% a grab-and-go situation.
No real seating… so you’re out here eating push pop sushi like a confused adult at recess.
Drink options are limited but the upside is these things travel insanely well, and they come in a surprisingly nice cloth bag.
Also…
Tried to take a picture eating it.
Looked absolutely unhinged.
Did not make the cut.
Go experience that part yourself
Final Score
7.5 / 10 fucks given
🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
Lost some points for:
the wait
the crowd
nowhere to sit, enjoy, and process your life choices
BUT…
Fresh sushi
Fun concept
Would absolutely eat again
Verdict:
Go grab a sushi push pop. Embrace the chaos.
