If you’ve never visited the conveyor belt sushi restaurant, Kura Sushi, now is the time. With over 70 restaurants, in 20 states (and the District of Columbia), this is a fun, interactive, dining experience where guests can enjoy over 100 different dishes. Sushi and small plates move around the restaurant on a conveyor belt, for guests to take. Dishes like ramen and dumplings can be ordered via an electronic menu and delivered directly to guests via a separate, second conveyor belt.
For an added bit of fun, guests can earn a prize for every 15 plates of food. Having visited this restaurant multiple times with my family of four, this is very easy to do! After 15 plates are deposited into the dish repository, a ball drops from the container, where a fun prize awaits within. Past Kura Sushi Bikkura Pon prize collaborations include Dragon Ball, Pac-Man, One Piece, Tetris and DC Comics.
Last year, the restaurant’s collaboration with Peanuts was so popular that they have brought it back for a second round of fun. In a recent press release shared with Guilty Eats, Sally Kurosaki, Promotions & Licensing Manager at Kura Sushi USA, Inc., noted: "Following the success of our first Peanuts collaboration, we knew it was the right move to give our fans a second series of these nostalgic characters through heartwarming collectibles. Snoopy and the Peanuts gang are synonymous with joy and timeless charm, and this new collection captures that spirit while delivering the eater-tainment experience our guests know and love." Who doesn’t love Snoopy and the gang?!
The Peanuts x Kura Sushi Bikkura Pon prize collection consists of five different acrylic charms, featuring character duos including Charlie Brown & Snoopy, Sally Brown & Snoopy, Lucy & Snoopy and Linus, Woodstock and Snoopy. Plus there is a rare solo Snoopy charm.
The Peanuts x Kura Sushi collab is full of nostalgic fun!
The prizes are randomized but if you want a certain charm, they can also be purchased. The rare Snoopy charm is the only one that has to be earned through the restaurant’s prize system. This prize collaboration is taking place now through June 30, so there’s plenty of time to try winning that rare Snoopy charm!
Kura Sushi Rewards Members should visit the restaurant between May 16-20. During this time, there is a Peanuts x Kura Sushi Snuggle Blanket that only members are eligible to receive, for dining in and spending $70 or more. Supplies are limited, so if you really have your heart on securing one of the Snuggle Blankets, you may want to call your local restaurant to confirm the dates and their supply before making a special trip.
