Conveyor belt sushi in Japan is a must-try, at
least to see what is the major difference of dining in the country of
origin. Hanamaru Sushi spots several outlets around town and each always has queues. Queues for this is regardless of hour and time, people seem to
think that sushi is staple 247…like the craze surrounding
bubble tea then. At its peak, waiting time goes up to 60 minutes.
Mad queues.
Yes, we waited for a good 45 minutes at least.
Interior of the restaurant.

Concept is universally the same I suppose, pay
according to the coloured plate taken. Prices range from 130 Yen and
include a variety of sushis – mostly raw though.
Salmon sushi for a start, possibly the first time eating it in Japan.
Seconds, a different price tag but I suppose it's a different cut.
Octopus.
Torched salmon to try!
Crispy soft shell crab.
Tamago was really ordinary.
A blanket of fish roe! Very interesting sight I must say to attempt plucking each from the main vine.
My favourite scallops, juicy and sweet!
The lightest shade of tuna.
Not sure what this squishy thing is - one mouth and it all tastes about the same.
A chewy shellfish.
Yet another chewy arkshell.
Always a must eat but this was really ordinary, somewhat metallic in fact.
Minced tuna.
In maki roll form.
A crunchy one but nobody figured out what it is.
Boring salad sticks.

Fish soup!
Even in a sushi joint, we could not bear to pay SGD3 for a bowl of fruit.
I’d say sushi was not totally fresh and the best
eaten but it was decent. Reasonably cheaper than the run of the mill
sakae and ichiban equivalents here but it’s just it. Overhyped and
overcrowded.
