and PS.Cafe are as different as, well, DC and Marvel films. But even brands with pretty much nothing in common can team up — Avengers-style — for a foodie collaboration.

Sushiro’s PR rep tells that the two brands’ management teams simply “met through a mutual contact, and it led to the discussion and exploration of a collaboration opportunity.” Given that Sushiro is known for sushi and PS.Cafe, arguably its truffle fries, which is one of its longtime bestsellers, the collaboration manifested as a new-to-market truffle sushi menu.  2 5 PS.Cafe’s truffle fries This includes three truffle-flavoured sushi items and one truffle chawanmushi: Salmon with PS.Cafe Truffle Mayo ($3.90) , Shrimp with PS.Cafe Truffle Mayo ($3.90) , Aburi Scallop with PS.Cafe Truffle Sauce ($4.90) and PS.Cafe Truffle Chawanmushi ($4.90) .  Fun fact: it’s also currently black truffle season, which usually runs from November to March and peaks in January and February. 3 5 Using PS.Cafe’s house brand truffle oil  The truffle flavouring for the sushi comes from PS.Cafe’s in-house truffle oil brand Tartufo Bianco (Italian for ‘white truffle’), which is made with white truffles from Alba, an Italian town which is famous for producing some of the world’s best and most expensive truffles.  4 5 Aburi Scallop with PS.Cafe Truffle Sauce, $4.90 The truffle oil is mixed with mayo to create an aioli-style sauce that’s added to the shrimp and salmon sushi, and mixed with truffle paste for the chawanmushi and aburi scallop sushi. 5 5 Salmon with PS.Cafe Truffle Mayo, $3.90 As for whether there will be a Sushiro-inspired menu at PS.Cafe (like truffle fries-topped sushi, we guess?), Sushiro’s PR rep tells us there are no plans for a launch for now.  Sushiro x PS.Cafe’s collaboration menu is available from now till Apr 20.
