[MOC] Sosumi Japanese Restaurant

Sosumi Japanese Restaurant is based on an actual building in Victoria. Some of you may have seen this but I finally got around to taking pictures so I thought I would post.

Got mine in the mail but have had no chance to do anything. If you would like to borrow the Sbrick and give it a try more than happy to lend it out.

LEGO stills designs with youngsters in mind, whether adults like the pieces or not... Yes we hear that every time they make a POOP and usually I accept it if there is a case to be made. In this case though I think the concept does not really apply as there is nothing tricky or difficult in the shap...
