## In short

Kuu Kuu Nowon Branch is a 300-pyeong sushi and seafood buffet on the 6th floor near Hagye Station in Nowon-gu, Seoul. Visiting with a 29-month-old on a weekend, the writer tried the newly launched Norwegian raw salmon sashimi, lamb chops and smoked duck, then finished with the marble ice cream, now available all day. If you love salmon, this is the richest time to visit, with both raw salmon sushi and sashimi on offer.

## Sushi, sashimi, and roll corner

At this Nowon favorite, the variety and freshness of the sushi is the best part. In particular, the sashimi, sushi, and rolls made by chefs with traditional Japanese cooking experience, using fresh fish, are so varied~ There's also lots of salad options, and the dozens of kinds of sushi are unbeatable, as always!

### Open kitchen and chicken like Ppurinkle

You can tell at a glance that even the kitchen area is kept spotless with careful management. It's an open kitchen, so it's fun to actually watch the cooking process happen~ (Of course my eyes were fixed on the food haha.) There was also a chicken menu item reminiscent of Ppurinkle (a popular seasoned fried chicken brand), and as a Ppurinkle lover, I dug in happily, hehe. There's also extra seasoning powder set out on the side, so you can sprinkle on more if you want. I sprinkled some on the side dishes too, and it was so satisfying.

## Desserts, and marble ice cream now all-day

There's such a variety of desserts too! From cakes to jellies to fruit 🤭 And most importantly, the marble ice cream — it used to be a weekday-dinner-and-weekend-only item, but now it's been changed to an all-day menu item 😍 It's the ice cream kids love most, so I bet a lot of kids will be hunting it down over lunch during school break.

## Weekend visit with a 29-month-old: the most memorable dish

We tried a ton of the new menu items~ and also enjoyed plenty of our usual favorites on top of that. This visit really let us experience Kuu Kuu Nowon Branch at its most abundant! Especially for me, a salmon lover, the raw salmon sashimi was the most memorable dish ^^ Eating raw salmon sushi and raw salmon sashimi together, I got to enjoy salmon so abundantly — satisfaction upgraded.

We finished off with dessert too. Our chaotic household wrapped things up with sweet ice cream! With more flavor choices now, we just ate two at once 💚 For the marble ice cream, banana split is truth 🩷
