The unagi was quite respectable, with very fresh rice, plenty of sweet sauce, and well-barbequeed…read moreeel. The lunch special (bowl of miso, 3 nigiri, some futomaki, and some simple roll slices) was less impressive --- clearly the tail end of the day's prepped rolls, with the rice a little soft for my taste. The fish on the nigiri was still great, and the futomaki were fun (sprouts?), but the plain maki were pretty plain, and the white miso was more crunchy (onion perhaps?) and less flavorful than most of the versions I've tried. Barfüsser claims to be one of the oldest gay-friendly bars in the world ("oldest continually operated", perhaps?). I stopped by during the after-lunch lull for a little sushi --- fine time to try the fish, but it was fairly quiet and didn't get much of a feel for the denizens.

We've been to Kai near Schiffbau a few times before and it was always good, if not on the pricier…read moreside ( think CHF250 for two with wine ). One notable aspect is the attentive and friendly service. Unfortunately last night's experience left a bad impression and I'm afraid to say, we do not want to go back. It was Valentine's Day and only a set menu was on offer, for chf 120. The menu clearly listed a set number of morsel pieces for the stated 120 Swiss Francs and that's what they brought us, exactly what was stated on the menu for that price. We were confused, surely if it's 120 per person you would bring us double the amount of pieces stated on the per menu price...? But no, when the bill came they'd charged us CHF 240..! for the food alone. The menu did include Sushi à discretion, but what was on offer on the caterpillar was all same-same, rolls with chopped tartare inside, cheap-looking. The pricing was deliberating misleading and we complained. To their credit, the staff understood and sympathized, and adjusted the bill accordingly. I guess this was a company policy. Very underhanded and shady, my trust in Kai is gone and I advise anyone to avoid them on special days like Valentines, where it's very unclear what the pricing model is. There are other really good Sushi restaurants in town, Kai, and you need to pull your socks up and be on the level if you want to have repeat business. What you did last night suggests you're just out to rip our clientele off, which is very short-sighted.

So, I booked a table at Yooji's but I ended up getting a spot in front of the conveyor belt. There's a Yooji's close to the hotel I was staying at but for some reason this particular location was highly recommended. Service was great. I grabbed plates and plates of sushi from the conveyor belt. Different pricing depending on the plate color. Each plate has a few pieces of sushi (2-4). The table in front of you will tell you the pricing as well as description of each plate when you place the plate on the circle on your right. The quality of fish was alright. Conveyor belt sushi is not meant to be top-quality sushi. I didn't like 2 things I tried: chicken teriyaki nigiri (chicken was dry and the texture was weird), and salmon sushi wrapped in rice paper with cilantro (it was like a Vietnamese sushi. Do you want pho sushi? I didn't finish it). The current conversion rate is 1USD = 1CHF. So with my 6.5 plates of food and a jasmine tea, it was 85+ CHF for 1 person. That's like the price of an omakase tasting menu but it's conveyor belt sushi! It's not a bad place, it's just not worth it. Skip!

So that was sweet of him, but then I guess yes, this restaurant is located in a bit of a "shady" neighborhood. The restaurant looked hip and modern, and I was excited at the touch-screens that popped up at the revolving sushi belt for taking our drink orders. Totally awesome! The sushi was nice--nothing extraordinary--but not terrible, either. I would say good quality sushi at typical Zürich prices.

TT also carries products for those who wish to make their own sushi and/or cooked Japanese foods. Among those items for sale are: various types of noodles, sushi rice, wasabi, rice vinegar, and a few 'sweet treats' that one is meant to have with tea in the afternoon. The woman, Mari, who runs the shop has over ten years' experience working back of the house in Japanese restos in CH. She's not only great with food prep, but also supremely good at customer service. There are a few 'steh cafe' tables in the vicinity at which one may eat their newly-purchased bounty. A trip to the Markthalle should include a stop at Tokyo Tapas!

However, it stands to lose it's 4 star rating to 3 stars due to lack of customer ambiance, as I hope this is one-off. Envisioning a Memoirs of a Geisha or Kill Bill effect of going into this restaurant on a Saturday night, but instead landed with the boring parts of Lost in Translation. No court jesters in sight. Just streams of hesitant couples staring at the menu outside whilst walking by, staring at the emptiness of the customer base, looking at me, and walking away. It didn't help that this restaurant is located right across from cablecom and the 'back' part of the main train station, so a bit quiet and kinda spotty feeling at night. However, the restaurant did manage to draw two couples in, probably thanks to me as a token Asian-looking person sitting by the window, advertising the suspicion that perhaps this is an authentically tasty place. However, the food and wonderful service managed to keep me awake and excited for a bit. Since I was torn over choosing the chiriashi, the bento box and sushi, I gave the friendly waitress an interrogation of questions that would make anyone feel exploited. She answered them with great care and detail and gave me very good answers. I ended up with a sushi regular for CHF 30-35 and it was very fresh. If you also want sashimi, I'd recommend to pay 10 francs more and get the Yoshino special. It's probably even shareable between two girls with small appetites (certainly not me)! The menu boasts of an array of cooked/raw Japanese foods, and a vast selection of alcohol and non-alcoholic beverages. I'd recommend this restaurant for those who squirm at the thought of raw fish, as the cooked foods here looks/smells promising. The couple next to me ordered (1) bento box with chicken, which also came with salad and three pieces of sushi rolls (2) chicken teriyaki, which both looked and smelled superb. The smell was so enticing that I was drooling even though I was full with sushi, a strange feeling to combat. I will have to come back and try out the cooked portion of the menu, and hoping for better customer ambiance next time!

Within an hour the whole place was full, and rightfully so. The menu is very expansive. Over 100 items. Started off with a bowl of chicken and sweet corn soup. It was delicious. Umami with the contrast of the sweet corn. Would def recc. Dim sum combo platter. Came with a variety of dumplings. It was unfortunately the least favorite item. Could be a different type of region or style of dumplings that I ma not used to, but did not love the taste overall. The wrapper was very thick and flavor was a little bland. Flat Rice noodles: Delicious. Big portion, flavorful, came with lots of protein and veggies. No complaints whatsoever. Forgot the name of it, but the serevr said it was one of the most popular dishes they have. Some sort of beef dish that our server said was North Chinese style. Flavorful, a bit saltier then would like, but not an issue once you pair with rice. Just note that tap water is 2 franks per cup. Overall would definitely come back if I was ever in the area.
