sushi pizza — Toronto, Canada

Sushi pizza is a Canadian dish originating from Toronto and a fusion of sushi and pizza often served in the Greater Toronto Area, invented by Kaoru Ohsada no later than May 1993 as chef of the Japanese seafood restaurant Nami. The base is a slightly crispy but soft rice cake, topped with a layer of sliced avocado, a layer of sliced salmon, tuna or crab, a drizzle of mixed mayonnaise and wasabi powder. Nori, pickled ginger and fish eggs are sometimes served as toppings or as a side. Due to the popularity and wide availability of this dish in Toronto, it quickly became one of the city's iconic dishes, along with the peameal bacon sandwich. --- Entry automatically compiled from [Wikidata](https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7648934) and Wikipedia.
