Yo! sushi

 Hiya Chummies! Today, I am doing a post on Yo! sushi. I went to Yo! sushi for the first time in Buchanan street (Glasgow for non-scots). Then went the day after because I love it so much!
(Before you start wondering, there is no specific reason for my writing to be like this, it is just impossible editing a post on a Mac!)

Yo! sushi is such a fun restaurant it is a CRIME to not have gone there! ( guilty as charged ).
I am going to give you a run through on how things work there then I will recommend dishes for you lovely jublies!
ENTERING:
You will be blown down by an array of colours , smells, and people. When you enter, there are two queues, eat in or takeaway .

EAT-IN: If you have the choice ask for a booth, I will explain why later.

GETTING A PLACE: Booths are a much better choice of seat because there are tiny little taps on your table! Still and Sparkling. They are there because the whole point of Yo! sushi is that you try loads of new foods and they know that you don't always have time to order water if your mouth is on fire or you have had something so horrible you want to throw up. The down side of these taps is that, if you turn them on without a cup, there is a hole directly under in the table. BUT. There is no drainage system beneath, so you better bring wellies! There is also  a little button on your table (dangerously near the water tap) that you press of you want a waiter.
THE FOOD:
At the beginning you get asked if you want Miso Soup (unlimited refills) or Green Tea.You also get a menu saying the hot stuff and what some of the cold stuff is. The hot stuff doesn't come round on the conveyer belt because unless you can't read, IT'S HOT. duh. Honestly, order as little cold stuff as possible because it is so much more fun taking it off the conveyer belt! I only ordered cold stuff if it wasn't coming round. Word to the wise, BE PATIENT. The conveyer belt goes around the whole restaurant so there might be something on the other side that you don't know about. Also, this goes out to all salmon lovers, because the salmon isn't smoked, or at least they claim it is ( it's not) it is really slimy and tastes of nothing.

THE PRICING:
each tinnyyyy meal comes in a coloured dish, each colour has a different price. If you don't like reading then look at this pretty (yet slightly depressing picture ) on how much of you money is taken away from you!

Foooood


Hiya chummies, Aimee here and today I am going to be doing a blog on.... Food! ( not my idea) so today, I am going to try and a magic up a slightly interesting blog about food. Even if it is mildly helpful, that will make my day. I know what we all like, deep down in our hearts but sometimes, if you are trying to make an impression, you will try and make it look like you are a really healthy eater. So here, are some tips on what to eat when. Enjoy!x
 Dairy- Don't eat dairy if you are going on a car journey over 20 mins ( if you are car sick) as it will make it so much worse and is fixing the idea that you will be sick in the car with glue. Also, I don't recommend it if you are doing an audition, interview, singing exam or play as it bungs up your nazel system. And I don't want to get all technical on you guys, but it is not a pretty sight.
 Wheat- If you are going or doing anything nice where you want to look your best, if you are having to wear clothes or a costume that you are not comfortable with wearing, then I would not recommend stocking up on wheat based products. They make you really bloaty. When you are bloated, your stomach basically inflates and makes you look a lot heavier.
 Salad- Before I start, this is NOT as don't eat salad bit, it's a how to fill up on salad. We all know salad is really nice and if you are trying to impress someone, then it is good thing to go for, but it doesn't really fill you up. A good idea, if you are worried about being hungry after, then go for the salad with something other than lettuce in it. YOu could go for a normal salad that his little bits of pancetta, or hard boiled egg, for example. There are so many things you could choose from so I am not going to list all of them it's just, non-vegetable based products are much more filling.
Crisp Flavours- Ok, so this one is slightly different. Im having to adapt on my idea for this post a little but as Im completely running out of ideas. This is about if you want to have really good fresh breath, what NOT crisp flavours to eat. Pickled Onion, Cheese and onion, any barbaque flavoured crisps , tangy cheese, Any meat based ones like Smokey bacon, Bacon Sizzler, Prawn Cocktail. There are a lot more but I am only going to list a few. You see, I've basically put down anything that has onion or meat in it. Well, yeah. That's all can think of. Again, I did not choose this topic. I hope this helped. Probably didn't. but thanks for reading! xx
