Sushi is a very traditional Japanese dish, and we've all known it to look a certain way, taste a certain way, and feel a certain way.

Wave Asian Bistro in Mount Dora, Florida, however, is breaking all the sushi rules, taking the base elements and creating 16-pound sushi doughnuts, sushi pizza, sushi fries, and much more.

Under the tutelage of his father, who also ran a Japanese restaurant, Jonathan McKinney opened Wave and in a few short years has made "breaking the internet" a habit.

We talked with McKinney and partner Kelly Leech, as they showed us what the process of creating these insane dishes, the reception they've received, and how social media marketing has affected their business.
