Japanese Cuisine & Cars Combine at New TSUJIRI Cafe in OpenRoad Toyota Richmond
Now serving trendy Onigirazu sushi sandwiches, available exclusively at OpenRoad’s TSUJIRI
October 28, 2020 (Richmond, B.C.) – OpenRoad Auto Group is pleased to offer customers a unique in-dealership experience with the recent opening of TSUJIRI, an iconic Japanese cafe located inside the new OpenRoad Toyota Richmond at the Richmond Auto Mall. OpenRoad’s TSUJIRI has quickly become a popular tea lover and foodie destination, and is now the only cafe in the Vancouver-area serving trendy Onigirazu sushi sandwiches.
“I’m a huge fan of TSUJIRI and have been a regular customer at their establishments in Japan for years,” said Christian Chia, CEO of OpenRoad Auto Group. “So when the idea of a cafe came up for our new Toyota dealership, a new TSUJIRI franchise was an exciting fit – not only because of the company’s cultural alignment with the Toyota brand but also because we knew our customers would be excited to have an authentic taste of Japan right here in their community.”
Known for its centuries-old tradition of premium Japanese tea-making and matcha infused foods, the TSUJIRI franchise has gained popularity around the world with Japanese tea lovers. The TSUJIRI brand was founded in 1860 in Kyoto, Japan by Tsuji Riemon and over the years, the company has shared its passion for Japanese tea with the world by partnering with new franchise owners and expanding its menu options to include more premium green tea-infused drinks, treats and savoury indulgences.
OpenRoad’s TSUJIRI cafe’s unique location is attracting not only car enthusiasts but local food lovers as well who are eager to enjoy TSUJIRI’s selection of iconic green-tea flavoured Japanese drinks, frappes, soba bar and desserts like the Matcha and Yuzu Rare Cheesecakes. TSUJIRI has also just unveiled a custom menu of trendy Onigirazu sushi sandwiches, in varieties like Musubi Spam and Egg, Salmon and Fried tofu veggie which are exclusively available at the OpenRoad’s TSUJIRI cafe.
Located at 13100 Smallwood Place in the Richmond Auto Mall, TSUJIRI OpenRoad Toyota Richmond is now open Monday to Saturdays from 11:00 am – 4:00 pm for dine in, take out, or delivery through UberEats and SkipTheDishes. For the full menu, visit the TSUJIRI OpenRoad Toyota Richmond website here.
