Sushi in Hattiesburg - how much is enough?

by Trent on April 15, 2010 | 1 Comment

The Hattiesburg American recently reported that: “Over the past decade, Hattiesburg’s sushi-specializing eateries have multiplied from one to about a dozen. Restaurateurs and owners say the cuisine’s health benefits and community’s cultural open-mindedness help attract new customers and build a regular customer base.”

Edo Sushi near Hwy 98 & Old Hwy 11 is currently under construction.
