As a couple, and now a family, we don't drink or smoke and so eating out has always been our main form of 'entertainment.' We often go for lunch on a Saturday and so I thought that I would share some places we enjoy eating at. Sometimes I will share recipes as well.
I had always avoided Yo Sushi as I don't eat meat or fish and so I thought there was nothing there for me.
However my OH convinced me to try the one in Sheffield and I found that there were lots of dishes I could enjoy.
My favourites are:
- unlimited miso soup
- avocado maki
- cucumber maki
- Inari mini iso
- Inari pocket
- Pumpkin korroke with plum sauce (hot dish - my very favourite)
- Vegetable gyoza
- Mochi for dessert - it is an acquired taste but a real taste of Japan
- Chocolate mochi - this is so delicious
It is a fun
dining experience as the colourful dishes whizz around the conveyor belt
and you grab what you fancy. On Monday's they do Blue Monday's where
all of the dishes are a certain price and so this is a great time to go
and try a few out and then decide upon your favs for full price days.
I
have eaten at the Finchley Road branch in London, Sheffield and the
Harvey Nichols one in Leeds and now Leeds Trinity. My favourite and the
best for service is the Harvey Nichols branch. The service throughout
can be variable and sometimes in some branches the belt isn't well
stocked and that detracts from the experience.
I
have seen young kids eating here (mainly picking out the dessert
dishes) and I think it is a good way to introduce them to sushi and to
Japanese food.
What are your opinions on sushi and Japanese food?
Love Sushi, they have the Sushi Train chain here in Aus. Love Japanese food in general - have you ever been for a tepanyaki dinner? Dinner and a show!
ReplyDeleteAWhh love this! I love sushi! xx
ReplyDeleteSsh! Don't tell anyone! I've never had sushi!
ReplyDeleteHere is another who has has rarely had sushi ( only once in fact.). Preferring to eat vegetarian food where possible, I had assumed there was little I could have but you have convinced me otherwise! Good luck with the blog revamping and hope you enjoy the time off paid work for a while ...
ReplyDeleteHave fun with the blog revamp. I love sushi but we haven't had sushi for a while because my little one does not like fish or seaweed.
