Sushi Express (Closed)

Came here for lunch again because I had a craving for rotator belt sushi. This time I came, there were some changes. It appears that the time limit for this branch of Sushi Express is 40 minutes instead of 60 minutes like the other places. I wonder why? But 40 minutes was still plenty of time to eat. But all dishes were $8. A great deal!New items I noticed:Miso Soup. This came in a bowl with some miso paste, nori, chicken meat and tofu. Instructions were given to add water and stir.Instant miso soup! It was ok. For $8, one can't really complain.Sakura Mochi Balls. I think this might be a limited time item as it's sakura season. This was really REALLY good. I highly recommend this if you see this rotating past you on the sushi belt. There was a light taste of sakura. The balls were stuffed full of azuki paste and wrapped in a shiso leaf. REALLY GOOD!Crab Leg. This was a bit bland but I assume this was the type of crab used. A bit of crab roe. Surprising they offer a leg for $8.Crab Roe Sushi. This was all crab roe ok. It tasted the same as the crab leg.I noticed that they were selling mini erasers for a limited time. If you eat $100, you can purchase an eraser for an added $3. Pretty cute, I thought. As I was by myself, the most plates I could eat was 8 and that was only $80. I couldn't make it to $100.…Read More

I love conveyor belt sushi places. I have no idea why. Perhaps it's the joy of watching plates of sushi moving past you. Maybe it's just the most bizarre foodie invention ever made. But whatever the case, I love it and I eat at these places a lot. Especially when I'm by myself.Conveyor belt sushi places usually have a pretty bad reputation. They are cheap in price and people think the sushi and quality must be poor. But then you have Sushi Express. Originally from Taiwan, it offers all plates of sushi for $8 each. However, you also only have 60 minutes to eat. Thus, the word "express". Not to worry. 60 minutes is more than enough time to stuff your face and feel super full. And surprisingly, unlike most other conveyor sushi belt places, the quality is actually quite good and pretty fresh.There is a new branch of Sushi Express in Causeway Bay. I was given a flyer from a lady passing them out informing of this so came here for lunch. Inside is this rathe spacious bit of space with two conveyor belts filled with sushi moving before me. And plates were filled constantly as soon as a plate was removed. There was even staff there to check what item was missing and should  be prepared next. FANTASTIC!Place was neat and tidy.Sea urchin was surprising to see here as I haven't seen it at other branches. Not too bad though not sweet. But for $8, I can forgive.Fatty salmon was pretty big in portion and thickly cut. Pretty good!Surprised to see toro for $8. Pretty good.They had drinks, too, like vinegar drinks. But this was something I hadn't seen before. It said DHA and when I drank it, it tasted like Yakult. I like Yakult so I liked this.They also had various desserts such as cheesecakes, mango pudding and cream puffs. But this is my favorite when I go to Sushi Express. I have no idea what this is but it's a transparent red bean mochi. It's great as it's ice cold.This branch had yakitori type items. Something I haven't seen before. This was a tamagoyaki on a stick with a spread of mentaiko. The tamagoyaki was soft and sweet. The mentaiko was a bit creamy and touch spicy. Good combination.Ten plates finished! It only came to $80 (+ 10% service charge)! What a deal! After I paid, the cashier gave me two vouchers to use next time where I get a free dish! I will be back, of course!…Read More
