One of the best parts of moving back to the Upper West Side was getting my sushi back. Living in Harlem for the last year and a half, there wasn't a local sushi place. We have now settled on (after 2 visits) Tokyo Pop on Broadway and 104th. The space is excellent, the sushi is so delish, and the service is top-notch. So I was in a sushi frame of mind when I got this wacky email the other day here at NYCBP:

My name is Brandon Buckley and I am working with Sushi-Models.com to provide exposure to Koko Hirosaki’s unique catering service. Koko has taken hold of the growing sushi model market here in NYC by utilizing her models based on aesthetics and sophistication. The reason I am contacting you is because I feel that offering her service could make any event a memorable one. I am offering a $100 commission to any agent that can book Koko’s service for a group over ten people, and $50 for groups under ten. I encourage you to take a look at Koko’s site in order to get a better perspective on the catering options she provides.

I had to go and check this out. Why else live in New York, if you can't order food and eat it off a woman (or man) lying half naked on a table in front of you? What a concept. It was on the news last summer when this came to New York, I believe. My birthday is in January, so maybe this is what I will ask for. What a riot. Tokyo Pop does not offer this service, but I'm going to ask about it...

Just check out these photos from nyotaimori-ny...


"Pass that tuna roll, will you?"


"Dude, this is so much better than Applebee's!"


"We are here to add atmosphere to this freakshow."


So business school really paid off for you.


Just another Craig's List success story, right on the table.



"Nobody at work will believe this, so let's take a photo!"


"Have you seen my California Roll?"


Food porn, right here.


Believe it or not, Rachael Ray started her career this way.


This is one of the models before the food arrives.
