SUSHI by conveyor belt has been doing the rounds for a while. Only, Yo!Sushi still confidently caters to a range of diners from first-timers to fanatics.
Every menu listing is photographed, making selecting from soups, rices, noodles, sushi, and desserts as easy as, well, watching food sail by.
I began with delectable tuna sashimi – slices of raw fish on a bed of garnish – while my dinner companion opted for salmon: ‘some of best in London’ he asserted, having eaten at some of the capital’s favourite Japanese restaurants.
We shared tasty katsus – breaded and cooked shrimp, chicken and pumpkin – with fruit sauce, and a seafood rice packed with flavour, washed down with the loving kiss of warm saki.
Dessert was more controversial: mochi, glutinous rice cakes, for those with a penchant for gluey foods. For me the tart kiwi and mango cake made it all worth while.
Partially authentic but highly accessible.
Dining was at: Yo!Sushi, Harvey Nichols, 5th Floor, 102-125 Knightsbridge
London SW1. (020 7201 8641) Dinner from £20 per person.
