New at itsu.<br />
Sidney Street eatery itsu has got a new<br />
look and a brand-new range of lipsmackingly<br />
tasty Far East inspired treats<br />
to get stuck into. <strong>Cambridge</strong> is the first<br />
store in the 75-strong chain to introduce<br />
the new menu, which features steaming<br />
chicken teriyaki and rice bowls, pulled<br />
pork noodles and hot gyoza dumplings,<br />
with hot dishes starting at £2.99.<br />
“<strong>Cambridge</strong> is world renowned as<br />
a centre of innovation so what better<br />
place to kick off our new menu!” says<br />
Itsu founder Julian Metcalfe, who has<br />
been at the store regularly to put the<br />
revamp in place. “Our vision for itsu<br />
<strong>Cambridge</strong> is that it will become a<br />
warm and welcoming place to spend<br />
time of an evening, as well remaining<br />
somewhere to grab a healthy light lunch.<br />
Where else can you enjoy great quality,<br />
fresh food, served in lovely bowls of an<br />
evening for under £6?<br />
“We’ve invested a lot of time and<br />
energy into getting the <strong>Cambridge</strong><br />
restaurant right for the local market. It is<br />
a completely different experience to our<br />
other restaurants across the country.<br />
Our innovative approach is helping<br />
inform our USA launch plans next year.”<br />
