The autumn air is in full swing.
Speaking of delicious autumn food, sweet potatoes come to mind, don't you think?
The conveyor belt sushi restaurant "Sushiro" has decided to hold the "Sweet Potato Festival 2024" starting Wednesday, October 23, 2024.
Following last year's "Sweet Potato Festival," this year's event will feature none other than Kuromi!

The Sweet Potato Festival, which was very popular last year, is making a comeback!
What's more, the "Sweet Potato Festival 2024" will feature a collaboration with the hugely popular Sanrio character, Kuromi!
We visited a Sushiro pre-tasting session with Kiyoaki (@kiyoaki_gohan), a chef who is currently on a diet program on his YouTube channel "Kiyoaki Shokudo."
Get a Kuromi Pick with Your Dessert!

First up is a parfait where you can enjoy two kinds of sweet potatoes: purple yam and beni haruka sweet potatoes!
Purple yam is also used in the mousse.

On top, in addition to a heart chocolate and a heart wafer, there is a special limited-edition Kuromi collaboration pick!

The brand-new illustrations of Kuromi, which come randomly from 12 designs in total, are as cute as ever!

It's great that I can enjoy two kinds of sweet potatoes.
The ice cream, which is made from carefully selected purple yams and beni haruka sweet potatoes, is so delicious that I want to eat more of it.

This is a moist caramel-flavored cake made with sweet potatoes from Hokkaido.
The caramel is a little bitter, giving it a mature taste.
I'm glad they serve it slightly warmed!
This dessert is the most refreshing of all the ones in this event, which makes it just right, and I'm very satisfied with the taste and texture of the sweet potato itself.
- Product Name: Caramel Sweet Potato Moist Cake with a limited-edition Kuromi collaboration pick
- Price: From 280 yen (tax included)
- Sales Period: From Wednesday, October 23, 2024, until the total of 172,000 picks runs out

Actually, there is a special message from Kuromi... no, a special message from Lady Kuromi on the back of the collaboration pick!

And finally, the baked sweet potato brûlée!
The contrast between the beni haruka sweet potato's unique moistness and the brûlée on the surface is amazing.

The moist baked sweet potato and the vanilla ice cream are a perfect match!
This is a must-try for all sweet potato lovers!
It's my personal favorite among all the desserts in this event.
- Product Name: Chilled Baked Sweet Potato Brûlée with Vanilla Ice Cream with a limited-edition Kuromi collaboration pick
- Price: From 300 yen (tax included)
- Sales Period: From Wednesday, October 23, 2024, until the total of 325,000 picks runs out

I wonder...
Is this throbbing
what they call love...♡
Kiyoaki is touched by these special words from Lady Kuromi.
Sushiro x Kuromi Collaboration That Lets You Enjoy Desserts to Finish Your Meal!

These were actually the same desserts he had at the pre-tasting session on the previous day.
Perhaps his stomach has shrunk from dieting (?), but Kiyoaki was completely full.
And with that! We have introduced the menu items that will be sold for a limited time starting on Wednesday, October 23, 2024!
After eating delicious sushi, let's enjoy the taste of autumn and get a Kuromi collaboration pick!
