Yo! We’ve got big news. MOTH has landed in YO! Sushi restaurants nationwide. Take a seat at that famous conveyor belt and catch us fluttering round. Not sure what to order? We’ve got just the thing. We coupled up our Spicy Margarita, Espresso Martini and Negroni with a few YO! Sushi classics;

> Espresso Martinis & Mochis

> Negronis & Nigiris

> Spicy Margaritas & Spicy Dragon rolls

A winner weeknight dinner? We think so. Your sushi smile is everything.

To celebrate, we invited some friends down to YO!’s newly-refurbished Stratford restaurant for bottomless MOTH: Cocktails and conveyor belt sushi. Plus a live sashimi cutting demonstration. That’s our idea of a dream night. But the best part? The world’s first cocktail bento box popped up to say ‘hi’. And went home with a few of our nearest and dearest in a goodie bag.

P.S. Interested in your own sashimi-cutting masterclass? Pop into one of YO!’s Sushi Schools.

Amidst the chatter, masterclasses, and sushi cruising by, we picked our fave pairing and sat down with the YO! team for a little live debrief. There were a couple of things we wanted to ask Paris, YO!’s digital marketing manager. We’d worked closely to dream up this event, and she’d so skillfully helped us bring it to life.

In my time at YO!, I’ve been trying to bring a ‘coolness’ factor and target the Gen Z/millennial age range, who are definitely big fans of MOTH. So it’s the perfect collab. I particularly loved our ASMR bento reel, and it performed so well, so it seems like everyone else did too!

I loved our collaboration with the film, Send Help, in February this year. I’m a huge fan of Rachel McAdams, so this one was so exciting! They approached us as there’s a scene in the film where the characters make sashimi, so we ran a sashimi masterclass as a pre-premiere event. Our whole marketing team even got their red carpet moment at the premiere in Leicester Square!

It’s such a supportive environment, so I feel very lucky because I moved to the UK for the job almost a year ago. Anyone on any level can have an idea and, if it’s right for the brand, YO! will work to make it happen. It’s exciting to work somewhere super fast-paced, where I get to do so many side quests – no two days in my role look the same.

Love this question! As I live on the other side of the world now, I’d have to say my best friend, Lauren, from Sydney. And then to get a celeb in there? Lena Dunham, I’ve been reading her memoir, and I just think she’s so cool. I loved ‘Girls’ too – it just perfectly captures that lived experience of being a woman in her 20s, living in a big city. And my third? David Attenborough, no explanation needed.
