NYC Mayoral Candidate Zohran Mamdani Criticized for Luxury Sushi Dinner
Zohran Mamdani, the frontrunner in the New York City mayoral election, has been accused of contradicting his "working class" image by dining at a high-end sushi restaurant in Manhattan.
Mamdani was spotted at Omen Azen, a trendy SoHo restaurant known for its affluent clientele and celebrity patrons, including Yoko Ono.
How's a so-called "working class" mayoral candidate like Zohran Mamdani eating at OMEN SUSHI tonight — one of the priciest joints in NYC? This clown lives in a rent-stabilized apartment in Queens but dines like a diplomat on a Qatar-funded per diem.
Actor and comedian Michael Rapaport shared photos of Mamdani's dinner on social media, sparking criticism of the candidate's luxury dining habits.
Mamdani is currently leading in the polls ahead of the November 4 election, with independent candidate Andrew Cuomo and Republican nominee Curtis Sliwa trailing behind.
