Yo Sushi edit
Yo! Sushi is a restaurant chain that uses the Japanese style Kaiten-zushi (conveyor belt) method of delivering sushi to customers. In each restaurant various sushi dishes and other Japanese cooked foods are prepared in a kitchen in plain view of customers and then set on the thin conveyer belt. The belt carries food around the restaurant in a circuit, allowing diners to pick any dish of the belt as they like for consumption.
The chain was founded by Simon Woodroffe (also known for the TV series Dragon's Den) in 1997 in London, England and from there increased to 24 outlets including stand alone resturants (with additional Yo! Below Bars) and a number of outlets in upscale stores (such as Selfridges). Even though the restaurants are mostly based in England with the majority in London, a number have opened overseas including in Paris, France and the Middle East.
Since 2003, the company has been co-owned by private equity film Primary Capital, with Woodroffe moving into new ventures under the Yo! brand such as the Yotel! chain of hotels.
Kaiten-zushi edit
The plates on the conveyor belt and even ordered all have coloured rims and range in price from £1.50 up to £5. Green tea is unlimited for £1 and Miso Soup for £1.50. The menu is extensive with over 100 dishes, and 40 hot ones and the menu is clearly laid out in different sections such as maki, hot classics, tempura and so forth.
