KUSAKI IS MOVING
Dear customers,
After five wonderful years at 5–6 Circus Parade, we’ve decided not to renew our lease. Unfortunately, the current conditions no longer allow us to do what we love most without having to charge unreasonable prices just to break even.
There are also personal reasons behind our decision — as our children grow and our lives evolve, time has become more precious, and we’ve felt that we haven’t been able to give KUSAKI the full attention it deserves under the current circumstances.
But this isn’t goodbye, it’s a new beginning. 🌸
We’re excited to share that our plant-based Japanese menu will soon return from a brand-new location right in the heart of Brighton where we’ll be hosting two intimate evening pop-ups each week (Thursdays and Fridays), starting this November.
Please keep following us for updates, we can’t wait to welcome you again.
The past five years have been truly amazing here, thanks to all of you and to our incredible team. Even though not everyone stayed until the end, each person has contributed to our success and our story.
There’s no need to repeat what so many in hospitality already shared — rising costs, staffing challenges — it is what it is. What matters most to us is the community we’ve built, the memories we’ve shared, and the joy of creating something special together.
As the Japanese saying goes:
桜散ってもまた咲く – “Even when the cherry blossoms fall, they will bloom again.”
See you soon,
The KUSAKI Team
