SushiNero, a new Japanese-Spanish fusion restaurant with sushi and small plates, is opening soon in Miamisburg.
Owner Lauren Stites said the restaurant will be located at 20 S. First St. in the former space of Watermark. She is leasing that space in addition to the former home of Backwater Voodoo at 103 S. Second St.
The restaurant, expected to open in July, will start off heavy with sushi and will have a variety of rolls including California rolls and spicy tuna rolls. An example of a Spanish tapa that will be on the menu is carpaccio, thinly sliced raw fish served in a vinaigrette with microgreens.
SushiNero has been approved for its D-1 and D-3 liquor permits, so the restaurant will start off with liquor and beer. Customers can expect a lot of tequila-focused cocktails and fun infusions like cinnamon sticks infused in sake that can then be made into a sangria.
She does have future plans for the Second Street space. Stites said her dream is to make it into an omakase experience with a beverage program that’s sake-focused.

Joui Wine in Dayton’s Fire Blocks District will be transformed into a traditional meykhaneh tonight when it features five courses of Persian food paired with four wines.
Owner Lauren Gay met longtime friends Armin Rahmanian and Naysan McIlhargey when she attended a Persian feast they prepared at MAZU in Yellow Springs to celebrate the Persian New Year.
“They’re not chefs by trade,” Gay said. “This is just something they’re passionate about and want to share with other people.”
Rahmanian and McIlhargey, who are both 48, have been friends since the sixth grade. Rahmanian said his family moved to Yellow Springs in 1986 and he became quick friends with McIlhargey because they both are of Persian descent.
As they grew up, went to college, started careers and families, they’ve stayed close friends. Cooking has always been an activity that they’ve enjoyed doing together.
For the event at Joui Wine, Rahmanian and McIlhargey have took the “best of” Iranian food to create a family-style feast. They will showcase about 15 dishes coming from different regions in Iran.

Fast-food restaurants add inflation-fighting value meals to menus
The fast-food industry is seeing more customers purchasing lower-priced, limited-time offered items, according to Kareem Nassar, CEO and co-owner of American QSR based in Houston, Texas.
He said this has been going on for the last four to five months due to inflation and customers having less expendable income.
In response, fast-food chains across the country are introducing short-term value options.
Here are three fast-food chains offering new value options:
- Burger King has launched a $5 Your Way Meal where customers can choose between a Whopper Jr., Chicken Jr. or Bacon Cheeseburger with Four Piece Chicken Nuggets, Value Fries and Value Soft Drink.
- McDonald’s is launching a $5 value meal on June 25 featuring four items — a McChicken or McDouble, Four Piece Chicken Nuggets, Fries and a Drink, according to CNBC.
- Wendy’s has launched a $3 English Muffin deal. Customers will receive a small Seasoned Potatoes with choice of either a Bacon, Egg & Cheese English Muffin or a Sausage, Egg & Cheese English Muffin.

Dish of the Week: Street Corn Pizza from Pies & Pints
This photo does not do this pizza justice! The Street Corn Pizza from Pies & Pints at The Greene in Beavercreek is within my top two favorite specialty pizzas (the Smokehouse BBQ Chicken Pizza from RFFG Marketplace is still my number one).
The pizza had tajín, seasoned corn, jalapeños, parmesan, lime, cilantro and scallions with chipotle crema drizzled on top. It was the perfect balance of spice for someone that likes their food with a little kick.
Pies & Pints won Best Wings at the Kickin’ Chicken Wing Fest in Kettering last year, so of course we had the Char-Grilled Hot Wings served with a creamy gorgonzola sauce. If you’ve never had these wings, you don’t even need sauce to eat them. They’re flavored with sriracha, lime, garlic, cilantro and other spices.
