Shinsen Sushi has transferred from its stall on the nearby market to the unit opposite the railway station.

The move into the ground-floor unit of the One Cathedral Square office block is described as ‘a dream come true’ by chef, Dimitris Kalliontzis, and his partner, Ionika Regudo.

Such is Shinsen’s popularity – including a glowing five-star rating on Tripadvisor – that the pair quickly expanded their first stall on Blackburn Market before outgrowing a larger one, and now it’s making Cathedral Square its new home.

Mr Kalliontzis said: “I studied at Culinary Arts School back home in Greece and have worked at award-winning restaurants across Europe, but cooking sushi actually started as a hobby.

“We like our customers to enjoy the whole experience, watching as the food is carefully prepared in front of them.

There’s a large menu at Shinsen ranging from a dedicated sushi menu to bao buns, street bites, toasted sando-wiches, bento boxes, ramen, Japanese curries, donburi and more.

Everything is prepared using fresh ingredients in an open kitchen, and Shinsen also offers deliveries and outside catering.

The restaurant is open from 11.30am to 8.45pm from Monday to Saturday, and 12pm to 7pm on Sundays with plans to extend its hours, with a new breakfast menu coming soon.
