YO SUSHI
Someone should give a gong
to whoever gave this chain its
name. It perfectly reflects the
entry level sushi experience
that blends fun and fresh,
healthy food with high-speed,
urban Tokyo style. Modelled on
a Japanese ‘kaiten’ sushi bar,
delivering food along a counter-
top conveyor belt: it may have
arrived in the UK as a novelty,
but the concept of travelling
colour-coded plates is now a
fixture. Sushi is still central to
the menu, but the chain also
serves soups, rice and noodle
dishes, salads, tempura and
Japanese favourites such as
chicken katsu curry, salmon
firecracker rice and gyozas.
Although the chain is large,
the food is prepared on site at
each outlet. The sushi menu
in the firm’s Cambridge diner
offers a good choice and a
clear guide to just what you’re
ordering. As well as sashimi,
there are maki, iso, nigiri,
gunkan and hand rolls; try the
Yo! Roll, the signature iso (rice
on the outside of the seaweed)
with salmon, avocado and
mayonnaise coated in orange
smelt roe. However, if you
don’t like raw fish there’s plenty
of other choice such as duck
dumplings with hoisin sauce
or soft shell crab served with
sweet chilli mayonnaise.
