Welcome to another week of the Mealeys' Adventures in Japan!
This week we went to a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, otherwise known as a sushi-go-round. There are lots of different types of sushi (and a few other dishes like veggies and desserts) that go around all the tables on a conveyor belt, and you just pick up the sushi you want as it comes by your table. The dishes are color coded -- certain colors of plate correspond to different prices, and you just pay at the end based on how many plates of different colors you have on your table.
Here's a list of all the stuff we tried! Before today, we hadn't tried much in the way of sushi (the occasional California roll in the US, and some accidental raw fish once here in Japan, is about all), so we tried to get some of the most adventurous options available! We were lucky they had an English menu, or else it would have been SUPER adventurous because we'd have had no idea what we were eating! Here's a list of what we chose:
Fatty tuna (raw)
Flatfish fin (raw)
Seared salmon (mostly raw)
Salmon roe
Natto (fermented soybeans)
Squid tentacle salad
Cucumber rolls
Kanpyo maki rolls (shaved gourd)
Edamame
Shrimp avocado rolls
Flan with whipped cream, cherries, and strawberries
We liked some things better than others! Watch the video to see the adventure we had, and what we all (including Jordan) thought of the sushi!
We are having a great time with these adventures and we love to share them with you! We have some great plans for our weekly excursions for this year, so stay tuned!
Love,
Brittany and Christian
