About Hikari
Plant-Based Pan-Asian Sushi and Noodle Bar
Welcome to Hikari, a plant-based pan-Asian sushi and noodle bar.
Hikari is a family run restaurant, started by Chew and Yvonne, husband and wife, both of them of Malaysian Chinese ethnicity.
Before they bought the establishment from Kevin's family, previously Shangri-La, they had a mission in mind, and that is to spread their delicious and healthy cooking to a chosen establishment, that was when they fell in love with Chepstow and the establishment.
Next here is a truly magnificient story to be told, both Yvonne and Chew are both buddhist in religion and they believe that vegetarian cusine has so much potential that the world is yet to discover, with mouthwatering dishes from the roots of asia. These dishes arent like any other, these are revolutionary to our planet and are able to translate to good karma for their customers and even for them.
Truly bless them both.

So we invite you to come and try our dishes and experience the taste of Hikari.
Together, we can change the world.
Chef Chew
Chef Chew was born in Malaysia on the island of Penang, which is known throughout the culinary world as a melting pot of cuisines with Chinese, Thai, Malay and Indian influences. To learn the art of Japanese food which now makes up the majority of Hikari's menu, Mr Chew lived in Japan to study the cuisine before working as the head chef in Japan Centre near Piccadilly Circus in London.
