Nairobi’s sushi scene is getting a spotlight this November as dining discovery platform With Pleasure launches a month-long campaign aimed at encouraging food lovers to explore different sushi varieties and discover restaurants across the city.
Dubbed Sushi With Pleasure, the campaign will run from November 5 to 30, 2026, bringing together eight restaurants: Social House, Thai Chi, Inti, Kwetu Curio, Slate, Ezo, Mawimbi and Akira.
The initiative will give diners an opportunity to sample different sushi offerings prepared by chefs at the participating establishments while discovering the flavours, ingredients and techniques behind the popular Japanese cuisine.
The featured varieties include maki, made with rice and fillings wrapped in seaweed; nigiri, which consists of hand-formed rice topped with fish or other ingredients; and temaki, a cone-shaped seaweed roll filled with rice and other ingredients.
The campaign will also introduce diners to other sushi varieties, offering both first-time tasters and regular sushi lovers an opportunity to broaden their food experiences.
Whether planning a date night, meeting friends or searching for a new favourite dining spot, customers are being encouraged to explore restaurants beyond their usual choices.
Speaking during the launch, With Pleasure founder Wendy Lorenze said the campaign was designed to make restaurant discovery about more than simply finding somewhere to eat.
“At With Pleasure, we believe discovering a restaurant should be about more than just finding somewhere to eat. It should be about the experience; the food and the memories people make along the way,” Lorenze said.
She added that the initiative would help diners explore Nairobi’s sushi offerings while giving participating restaurants an opportunity to showcase their menus and reach new customers.
“With Sushi With Pleasure, we want to encourage more people to explore Nairobi’s sushi scene, try different varieties and discover restaurants they may not have visited before,” she said.
Throughout November, With Pleasure will share restaurant features, sushi inspiration and information about the participating venues through its social media platforms.
Diners seeking more details about the campaign and the featured restaurants can follow With Pleasure on social media.
