Cookies! Gifts! Santa! Lights!  And stress.  This week is one of the most stressful weeks of the year, so why don’t you treat yourself to a free sushi sandwich tasting at Bamboo 52.

The sushi restaurant, located at 52nd and 8th, is offering a free sampling of their Spicy Sushi Sandwich this Tuesday and Wednesday from 3pm – 6pm. The Spicy Sushi is made of spicy tuna, avocado and eel, sandwiched between toasted bread crumbs laced with sesame seed sand accompanied by spicy mayo in a scooped out lemon, topped off with American cheese. This intense sandwich usually goes for nearly $15, but you can give your tastebuds a free sample as a holiday gift this week.

While you’re there, check out the Sushi Pancake which is a fish and fruit combination with cubed salmon, tuna, crab, avocado and mango, lightly dressed in a spicy, sweet, salty wasabi-chili-mango-eel sauce. Another favorite is the Aji, a Japanese mackerel sliced and served with lime with citrus dipping sauce.

The Sushi bar and lounge also has an interesting drink menu that features Geisha Mojitos and flaming Volcanos. Just don’t grab one of these cocktails on your lunch break when you’re taking advantage of the free sandwich tasting or you won’t exactly ace that end of the year review.

Take a break from the holiday madness and get your free bite at Bamboo 52. Hopefully your stress level with cool down, along with your credit card.
