Sunflower Sushi at Glen Ivy Hot Springs
We are excited to announce a new dining experience at Glen Ivy Hot Springs in Corona!
It is spring time in Southern California and just about everywhere you go, you will run into a field of bright yellow California bush sunflowers in bloom… and what better time to announce the opening of our new Sunflower Sushi at the Hot Springs!
It is the natural beauty, temperate climate, year-round harvests from our organic gardens, local farms, and the great Pacific that have inspired my fun and creative menu of Temake, Sushi and Shaved Ice. A fusion of some of my favorite flavors from Japan to Mexico, Sunflower features a selection of dynamic finger-friendly foods that I know will complement your Spa day. High-protein sushi and temaki are perfect for lunch, a midday snack or light nourishment between treatments. Colorful and refreshing shaved ice or raspado as it’s called in Mexico is made our way, with natural Agave syrup and seasonal fruit juices—like citrus, pomegranate and hibiscus—and yes, it’s “shaved” to order. The only hard part will be to choose a flavor—we have over 20!
You will also be glad to know that everything we serve here is made fresh to order daily and requires the minimum of utensils (usually just your fingers will do). Dining here is informal and all about what makes you feel most comfortable. Please feel free to find space here at the counter, go next door to Tiempo Lounge or enjoy pool side. Additionally, look for this mouth watering sushi and temaki at the Paradise Bar, on our Cabañas menu or in Café Solé.
Just in case you aren’t a sushi afficianado, here is a quick and easy guide to translating our menu (yes. please feel free download a copy Sunflower Sushi right here!) and don’t forget to Keep Eating Healthy!
Keep cooking healthy!
Chef Bill Wavrin
Hi, I’m in town for 1 week and have been going to your spa nearly every day. I had a smoothie yesterday from the Bev Bar, and was disppointed that it did not meet Glen Ivy’s usual high standards. They were made with syrups and ice instead of fresh or frozen fruits. Please stop using syrups and use the real thing.
Hi Marguerite! Thank you for your feedback and for joining us throughout the week during your stay. I have forwarded your suggestion to our Cafe Manage and Head Chef. Thank you again!
