Yo!

Can't have Dan's blogging overtaking mine - so I'd better post something new PDQ.

Last Saturday, after working for most of the day, we took a fit of the head staggers and decided to try out Yo! Sushi in Leeds. I'm SOOOOOOO glad we did!

Firstly, it's on the top floor of Harvey Nichols - right next to the bag section (always a good thing) so you have to wander through the store to get there. We arrived at about 4:30, just as the shoppers were beginning to leave town - and there was loads of space in the restaurant, before the Saturday night crowd started in.

The manager came over and settled us into a booth, beside the moving conveyor belt of colourful plates of exquisite little morsels. He explained how it all worked. Water, tea and miso soup are all 'bottomless'. Cold sushi/sashimi dishes are all on the belt. Pictures & descriptions of all the dishes are in the little book - you look and then work out what it is. Hot dishes you have to order - you do this by pressing the button on the table and your waitress comes to take the order.

The final part is that you pay by them adding up the plates you've eaten - each plate has a coloured rim, indicating the price of the item on the plate. 3 greens, 2 purples, 4 blues. You pay at the desk! Fantastic.
