Tiger Sugar to Hold Grand Reopening, Following Collision That Destroyed Storefront, on Saturday, July 16 With Merch Giveaways

By MCS Staff

Just a couple weeks ago, on June 27th, a car was driven into Tiger Sugar– located at 12266E in Federal Plaza. The collision destroyed the bubble tea shop’s storefront, forcing the store to close until repairs are complete. We have just been informed that the store will hold a Grand Reopening, that will include merchandise giveaways, on Saturday, July 16th at noon. Additional information will soon be available via Tiger Sugar Rockville’s Instagram.

Work to schedule the repairs began almost immediately, but we have been told the driver’s insurance was only able to cover a small portion of the damages caused by the collision and that the rest had to go through the business’s insurance policy, which traditionally has a high deductible.

Suki Hana Now Open in Montgomery & Wheaton Malls

By Patrick Herron

Suki Hana has opened up locations in both the Montgomery and Wheaton mall food courts, although the two locations appear to have completely different menus. The Montgomery Mall kiosk menu features sushi, rolls, salads, and bowls. Selections include Spicy Tuna Roll, Shrimp Tempura Roll, Black Dragon Roll, Seaweed Salad, and Green Poke Bowl. The Wheaton Mall location features chicken, beef, and shrimp Teryaki platters, as well as fried dumplings and tempura.

The signage at the Montgomery Mall location originally referred to the restaurant as “Sarku Hana,” but was quickly updated to ‘Suki Hana’, since there is no connection between the restaurant and Sarku Japan, which is also located in the Montgomery Mall food court.
