Albury born-and-bred Danielle Cale opened Yuu Sushi in Dean Street about three years ago.

She said it specialised in fresh, healthy and creative sushi with locally owned and sourced produce.

“We’re passionate about serving delicious, fresh and authentic Japanese cuisine to our customers in Albury and surrounding areas,” she said.

“I’ve lived in Albury my whole life but Yuu Sushi was my first restaurant.

“It’s been a good journey.”
