Light Rail Sushi Express

Located close to the border gate, Avenida do Hipodromo; “Light Rail Sushi Express” was one of the sub-branch owned by Sushimitei. The said sushi express has been operating a year and more; My niece been nagging few times getting there. We’ve managed to grab last week’s summer holiday countdowns, selected one of the weekdays given a try.

Speaking of Light Rail express, that wasn’t like one of the traditional revolving sushi place that we see. They have installed computerised “touch pad” ordering panels, which all services are almost self-served. Chef in the kitchen standby ready, freshly made once order pressed “confirmed” on the screen. With use of the light rail, food transported at the assigned spot all the way from the kitchen; you can tell they invested a lot here.

It’s fully automated!

Have picked a friday afternoon timeslots given a try. The whole place was cleared after lunch period. All seats were spacious and comfortable, every two (or four) seatings were set and partitioned; they even used a one meter high transparent partitions to separate each seatings, paying attention to small touches. All hygienic levels were just perfect. The entire logistic ordering and food handling systems are fully automated, that right fit in pandemic’s social distance dine-in requirements.

It’s just a perfect place

My cuttiest, eight year old niece was so familar with the place; counting third visit already. Starting from the entrance, she guided me through from escorting entrance to seating areas; self serve pouring hot green tea from set individual water taps; Right after starting from electronic ordering process to automated food deliveries; All items covered with transparent lid, hygienically care-free; eat well during meal. Assuming most food were purely for kids, guessing food wise might end up average or so.

Best recommend

When food arrived the presentation really surprised me; food quality was superb. My little girl that doesn’t eat a lot manage to finish five sushi dishes. Some outstanding items include egg roll, assorted tempura, pickled yam, grilled octopus ball; The assorted three mix sushi are outstanding. Specials discount promotion items have set at a reasonable price of just eight dollars per piece; quality wise were up to level. Among the specials, the highly recommended “Sea bream sushi” are one of its bests. Is a perfect memorable spot for kids and youngsters; Some kids that love to move around, would definetely get well seated and finish all food ordered; at the same time to play while eating, avoiding all leftovers. For parents, that was just a heaven for them.
