Conveyor Belt Sushi (Sushi-Go-Round)

We call conveyor belt sushi "kaiten-zushi 回転寿司" meaning rounding sushi. In this type of sushi restaurant, literary, sushi on the plates go around on the conveyor belt by each seat. You can simply pick whatever you want to eat from the conveyor belt. Alternatively, you may make an special order, for example without wasabi or when you can not find what you want, by pushing the button and tell the order to the speaker phone usually above your seat.

The bill is decided by how many plates you ate, and each plate has the fixed price differed by shapes, colours or patterns. Generally, plates are no more than 500 yen, however, there are restaurants where you can have any plates by 100 yen.

 You can put green tea powder to your cup, and pour hot water by
 pressing against the tap. See the picture left.
