(Gerry Furth-Sides) The story of Sushi Koo is as much of former waitress, Ogi Jiimen, who bought the place a decade ago and celebrated her tenth anniversary with a party honoring customers and and her line of Aji-Mori Umami Sauces, as it is the reputation as a three-staff restaurant where chefs still amaze customers by preparing practically priced high-quality sushi and only sushi, conveniently located steps from the Beverly Center in West Hollywood. //www.sushi-koo.com

The most recent news is the new, wildly successful line of AJI MORI sauces (//ajimorisauce.com) made by the restaurant and used there. They are delicious with a mayo base and exactly the right ingredients and seasonings to make them perfect on every dish we tried it on at home!

Ogi’s culinary adventure in Los Angeles began when she was an international student in Los Angeles. She started working at Sushi Mac restaurant in 2006, bussing tables, where her interest in the food and restaurant industry grew. After years of hard work and dedication, she took the plunge and bought the restaurant. Sushi Koo became the new name.

As a true American entrepreneur, Ogi’s vision was to combine her culinary and business skills to create something special in the food industry. She attended culinary school and business school to polish her skills in each.

Next, Ogi focused on housemade sauce at Sushi Koo that guests already loved. Ogi thought was, “Why not make it even better?” So she tinkered, tasted, and transformed it into something truly irresistible. After it was honored with the nickname “The Sauce Sensation” and customers began asking if they could take some sauce home, Ogi realized she had magic in a bottle. So the line of beautifully packaged AJI MORI was born. And Ogi was right. It was a hit from the very beginning.

The new AJI MORI sauce served at SUSHI KOO IS “Good on Everything!”

Ogi and her team has made SUSHI KOO a popular success even with nearby competition like Kat-Su-ya. Ogi was so proud to tell us, “I have a customer still coming since her high school and now she is a doctor!”
