Not so long ago, in a galaxy that’s really not that far away, Canadian actor and Star Wars star Hayden Christensen was spotted at the much-loved sushi restaurant Tojo’s in Vancouver over the weekend.

Tojo’s took to Instagram to share the news, alongside a picture of Chef Tojo and Christensen.

“We were thrilled to have Hayden Christensen drop by our restaurant,” said the restaurant. “It was such a treat to host and share a memorable moment with him.

Christensen was in Vancouver for Fan Expo alongside other celebrities like Jared Padalecki (Supernatural), Andy Serkis (Lord Of The Rings, Black Panther), and William Shatner (Star Trek, Boston Legal), just to name a few.

Chef Tojo is no stranger to the limelight. For almost 40 years, Tojo has been a leading figure in Vancouver’s food scene, winning awards and accolades while representing a blend of Japanese heritage and Canadian spirit.

He was recently featured in The Chef & the Daruma, a feature-length documentary by director Mads K. Baekkevold and writer Natalie Murao about the pioneer of Japanese cuisine in the West and the inventor of the California roll.

Christensen isn’t the only celebrity who is a fan of Tojo’s. Other stars spotted at the restaurant over the years include Ed Sheeran, Danny Trejo, and Michael Bublé.
