Ali Karakaya, founder of Yakinori, commented: “On Thursday 21st November we will be serving Katsu Curries for £1, and we hope people will come along as all the proceeds will be going to Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity and we want to raise a lot of money during this time.”

Yakinori which is situated near the Floozie in the Jacuzzi, closed in September 2022, following a flood in the building. It will officially reopen on Friday 22nd November, where it will continue to offer its famous sushi, healthy poke bowls, including Pokenori the first Hawaiian inspired poke with a Japanese twist, as well as delicious hot dishes.

We can’t wait to reopen the doors and get our loyal customers back in our restaurant and for our team to show everyone what we have to offer.
“We are creating jobs in the town and are looking to recruit friendly, enthusiastic and passionate individuals to our team and have 20 jobs available so anyone interested should get in touch.”
