"Launched in 2019 by Lisa Limb, Taka Sakaeda, and Jihan Lee — who met while working under Masa Takayama at three-star Michelin restaurant Masa — Nami Nori began as a dressed-up temaki (hand-roll) experience and has since expanded with locations in Williamsburg and Montclair; its desserts are also gluten-free." - Melissa McCart
