As a Japanese person, Kin No Hashi is a pretty strange name for a sushi bar because the "more refined" sushi-eaters don't even use chopsticks to eat sushi.
I just saw this topic and that was my first tought too.
In English it sounds like the name for a Chinese restaurant trying to cash in on the trend and I would expect really poor quality sushi.

Seeing it in Japanese would be slightly more promising, but would leave the impression that their sushi was an afterthought.

Also, why "golden"? It seems like an equally odd choice for even elegant chopsticks, regardless of any association with gold for good fortune.


Only an open mind and open heart can be filled with life.
