    thank you! i was hoping if i put that up someone would know what it's called.

    i'll edit the post accordingly.

    i think it's new--also, it's hard to see in this pic, but it includes a shadowy "spy" figure with bright blue eyes.

    Well, Home Depot took over the hardware businesses in NYC so Sushi will be replacing them.

    I think there are 3 Sushi Hana's in Manhattan.
