Gogo Ya — a crispy nori taco spot — and Ms. Cluck Deluxe, home of the famous Cajun Karaage Chicken Sando, will open at Kitchen United MIX, 1315 3rd St, Santa Monica, CA 90401.
Both eateries are helmed by Tim and Nancy Cushman of Cushman Concepts and currently reside only at Boston’s TimeOut Market.
An interview with Nancy Cushman regarding the restaurants’ cross-country venture is forthcoming.
Gogo Ya serves mouthwatering sushi renditions such as the crispy nori taco — a folded seaweed shell stuffed with rice and filled with proteins like spicy torched hamachi, salmon teriyaki, spicy big-eye tuna, or soy-braised mushrooms. Customers can also munch on rolls, bento boxes, and sides like warm edamame and miso soup.
As for Ms. Cluck Deluxe, the chicken and dumpling joint serves up a variety of fried chicken thigh sandwiches; waffle fries; noodles; dumplings, including the seemingly to-die-for chicken, broccoli, & cheddar gyoza; and sides & sauces like the company’s miso maple condiment.
