EXCLUSIVE: Popular sushi spot to shutter; plans to reopen soon
Just found out trendy Gold Coast sushi restaurant, Tsunami, serves its last meal on May 31.
An Ultimate Insider tells 312DD the husband-and-wife owners had a farewell party over the weekend, but plan to reopen at some point in the area:
"Tsunami is still open until the 31st!!! And they had a beautiful 'going away' party over the weekend...Steve & Melissa will definitely be back with a new space soon."
We wish them luck.
