Sushi on the conveyor belt and Japanese street food

How the world famous kaiten sushi restaurants in Dubai work.

Multicultural dialogue in Dubai is a unique phenomenon even by the standards of today's world. Wherever we go, there is a store of a familiar brand and pizza delivery everywhere. Food is one of the pillars of globalization, and the gastronomic scene in Dubai is deservedly proud of its geography.

The Yo! sushi restaurant chain is one example of successful integration: the first outlet opened in London's Soho in 1997 and shocked the British, and now the project has more than 100 branches around the world. The first Yo restaurant! The Dubai Mall opened in 2016 in Dubai, and since then the team has had three more locations in top locations: Mall of Emirates, Dubai Marina Mall and Mirdif City Center.

Not only is Japanese cuisine exotic in itself, but the format of the institution also stands out. Yo! loudly declared themselves by supporting the idea of kaiten sushi. It's something like a Japanese buffet, only the dishes themselves "drive" around the place on a conveyor belt. Guests can sit on both sides of the moving table and choose the food they like. Pay attention to the color of the plates: they indicate certain price categories so that it is more convenient to plan lunch. If you prefer the a la carte format, you will definitely be served a classic menu. But do not rush to abandon the authentic process: from Monday to Thursday at Yo! There is an Okawari–style offer - the Japanese version of "all you can eat". Guests can take any plates from the ribbon in unlimited quantities or order from the menu, and pay only 139 AED for them. Except that drinks are not included in the price.

The interior is designed in a familiar aesthetic: the creators were clearly inspired by the noisy and colorful street stalls. So inside Yo! there will definitely be colorful lanterns, neon or bright furniture – and sometimes all together.

If mukbang bloggers have whetted your appetite, but you don't want to leave the house (just don't turn into hikki– Japanese who lead an isolated lifestyle), Yo! there is a private delivery. The project also cooperates with well-known aggregators, so look for salmon set, miso soup and, of course, exemplary sushi in your favorite delivery.
