Kyoto Sushi

While Sir Reeves was doing sake bombs in Japan, I shot the campaign for the best kept secret in Chicago.

Here some pics and my excerpt from their new campaign.

Lincoln Park’s KYOTO (2534 Lincoln Ave Chicago, IL 60614 773.477.2788) has finally reopened under new owners and has reemerged as the “tastefully simple” dark horse of local sushi. Kyoto offers a one two punch with the culinary creativity of identical twin chefs Melvin and Carlo Vizconde ( Formerly of Kamehachi and Kizoku). Customers can state their personal taste preferences upon arrival and then take delight in the individualized maki and sushi creations that the twins whip out. While the full menu offers standard sushi fare, it is the creative improvisations of the Vizcondes and “mom and pop” attitude that has diners spreading the positive word of mouth about this 60 person BYOB. Our favorite mouth watering originals? Try the Original Dynamite and the Creamy Maki: A mix of Rice, Smelt Roe, Mayonnaise, Shrimp Tempura, Crab, Unagi, and Honey wrapped perfectly in Avocado instead of rice paper.

Portrait of the Artist as an Old Beaten Man

"Did someone say free cheese?"

It looks like someone finally had enough of Jerry "The Party Crasher" Berliant's rope jumping antics. The artist, who has been under a lot of scrutiny lately, apparently had his nose broken recently and forgot to wipe the stolen food/cocaine/dandruff off his v-neck. Congrats Jerry! You've never looked better!
