- At the hotel APA Hotel Matsuyamajo Nishi, we asked a hotel staff to recommend us a sushi conveyor belt restaurant. She was very helpful and wrote us the name of the restaurant and its telephone number, so that we could use it for the car GPS to guide us there.
- At the restaurant, the staff directed us to the long counter. Quite crowded ! And so we started our first adventure in Japan style sushi ordering.
- The easy part of course was just to take whatever sushi off the conveyor belt. Then we tried to order via a computer screen just above us. A waiter then showed us and so, what a delight ! At least we knew what we were eating, because for this outlet, all the dishes are translated into English.
- Most of them cost 100 yen, the next category 280 and one more at 380 yen. We therefore ordered sushi that we have never tried before...wow so wonderful and tasty...even those at 100 yen !
- When I made a mistake at the screen and ordered 3 of the same kind, they kindly canceled the 2 extra orders, no questions asked, even though communication was difficult.
- One marvelous thing I wanted to mention is that when your order arrives, your computer screen sounds an alarm, and a screen message, informing you of your coming order, and then you see it arriving about 4 or 5 sushi plates later.
- The 2nd thing we observed is that the sushi order arrives stacked on another red plate, so that customers would know that those are sushi orders, and that they would not take them off the belt for themselves. LOL, luckily we didn't take away those plates for ourselves.
- We have observed other customers and noticed that they stacked the 3 different types of plates nicely together and separately in their stack. All their stacks were higher than ours !
- So when we asked for the bill, the waiter comes around, shows off a ruler, which measures straightaway the number of plates on each stack (Wow!), enters them into a hand-held machine, and finally, scans a barcode on a type of plastified card, which they issue to every customer, and we then proceeded to pay at the cashier with this card. Only in Japan !!!
- We were swept off our feet by this Japanese high-tech sushi restaurant, and of course, its fresh, delicious and yet good value for money sushi.
Remarks
