It's official: there's been an Asian invasion in Uptown ...

Posted By on Mon, Oct 5, 2009 at 12:05 PM

First Enso opened up in the EpiCentre, then Room 112 magically (or quietly rather) opened tucked in the corner of Trade and Tryon.

And now, Fiji and Kashmir are opening where Feast and Liv use to have a HOM. That's Fiji Sushi Bar and Lounge — not to be confused with Fujo Asian Bistro and Sushi Bar in One Wachovia Building.

Kashmir Nightclub and Fiji Sushi Bar and Lounge are opening this weekend, Oct. 9 and 10, with a fashion show from Jordanos boutique on Saturday. The event will feature "surprise sponsors and celebrities"... which I'm guessing is still somewhat a surprise to them as well. I've heard a rumor that one of them is my bathroom buddy from a party at Sundance ... Paris Hilton. That's hot. And the liquor sponsor is Johnny Love Vodka. It's their launch party in North Carolina this weekend as well.

Within this sushi club is the Zen Lounge, exclusive for VIP Gold Card members. But this card has more perks than just a roped off room. According to manager Chandler Alan Beal, the gold card members will have full-out concierge services. Wednesday-Friday from 5-7 p.m. gold card members get fed and their first beverage free - and there will be a massage therapist available. They also have WiFi, should you want to access the Internet at happy hour. Random... but nice nontheless.

And according to a press release: T1 Visions will be unveiling a demo of its patent-pending T1 Connection BoothTM system, an electronic touch surface incorporated into a conventional lounge table that will allow customers in the VIP room to control audio and visual content in the room, including choosing songs, photographs, music videos and internet content from either a local database or their own portable devices. This will be the first use of the T1 Connection BoothTM Technology in a night club setting.

In laymen terms ... there will be touch screen table tops

Oh, and the sushi is said to be good.

Want a VIP Gold Card? ... well you are golden because I am giving one away. Just e-mail me at brittney.cason@creativeloafing.com and tell me your favorite sushi place in Charlotte ... because I can't decide. First e-mail to hit my crackberry wins.

Meanwhile, for Halloween Kashmir and Fiji are teaming up with ELEVATE Lifestyle Magazine for "Nightmare on 5th Street" ... the lift the curse party.
