Movie Night Meets Sushi🍣｜Chicago's Japanese Fusion Spot

🎬 What to eat before/after a movie? Just discovered Niu Japanese Fusion Lounge—literally 30 seconds walk from AMC River East 21! Perfect for a quick bite or post-film unwind. 🎥✨ 🍜 We tried ramen & sushi: Ramen was decent but not mind-blowing. BUT! The Maki rolls? A revelation! 🍣 Mango Tango Roll stole the show: Sweet mango + spicy mayo + fresh fish = perfection. Even the plating was Insta-worthy! 🌸🔥 📖 Menu highlights: From apps to sushi, noodles, sashimi, and desserts—endless options! 🪑 Spacious & comfy—great for groups or casual hangs. 📝 Pro tips: ✅ Book ahead (weekend movie crowds get busy!) ✅ Skip the ramen, go straight for Maki ✅ Bar area perfect for post-work drinks 🍹 Next time, I’m tackling more of that novel-length menu... Funny story: A sudden Chicago dust storm that day made the city look straight out of Interstellar. 🌪️🎇 If the apocalypse came... Would you flee, sleep, or (like us) keep hunting for good food? Here’s to craving truth—and great sushi—even in the dust. #ChicagoEats #JapaneseFood #MovieNight #NiuChicago #RamenAndSushi #FoodDiary #USLife #ChicagoLife #InterstellarVibes
