Kura will launch a prize collaboration with illustrated social media phenom Puglie Pug on Monday, April 11.
Kura is known for partnering with iconic brands — Tetris and Hello Kitty, to name a few — for prizes it doles out via its Bikkura Pon machines. The table-side gizmos reward customers based on how much sushi they purchase.
Next week, the chain will unveil a collaboration with illustrated social media phenom Puglie Pug. The new prize collection will include study notes, bookmarks and temporary tattoos featuring the cute pug created by Canada-based graphic designer Euge Leung.
Tables at Kura restaurants are outfitted with a sensor system that registers every plate customers finish and insert. After every 15, the Bikkura Pon machine dispenses a prize.
The Japanese company considers the system an integral part of its interactive dining experience, according to a news release. So, now you know.
The new collection will launch in all U.S. Kura locations — including the SA outlet at 255 E. Basse Road, Suite 384 — on Monday, April 11.
