Kaitenzushi shop

Today was another shortened day at school. I had made plans to meet Yamada sensei for lunch, and when I asked my supervisor if it was all right for me to leave the school grounds for lunch she said that I didn’t have to come back in the afternoon since many teachers are leaving early today. Yoohoo!

Yamada sensei and I went to a kaitenzushi ('rotating sushi') restaurant. It was my first time! It’s the kind of restaurant where people sit around a large conveyor belt type thing on which there’s a wide variety of different sushi plates which rotate around the whole restaurant. If something looks good to you, you grab it as it goes by.

You can also order dishes if you don’t see anything you like. When you’re done eating, you call over a waitress who will charge you according to how many plates you have in front of you.
