It's about two months ago, Gatten Sushi opened the first branch in Taiwan, near the Metro Xihu station at Neihu district. There are so many people so you may not get the ticket if you came here around six o'clock PM for the dinner. After two months, it's not so hard. Maybe because it's at Neihu, which is not a convenient place for those live in the downtown or other areas of Taipei. The time I arrived is about five and there are about 10 groups before us. We can get in about waiting for 30 minutes which is not so bad.
The tea with the matcha powder, not so bad. I may drink for three cups.
對我來說，透過平板，我可以很輕易地理解店家有供應哪些料理，又有哪些料理已經完售，不用在迴轉台上癡癡地等是好處，但這同時也是缺點，因為迴轉台上的驚喜同時也不見了！顧客之所以會將目光盯在迴轉台上，就是因為不知道壽司師傅會把什麼樣的驚喜放上迴轉台，必須盯著才不會錯過，才不會被坐在廚房出口處的前方客人就把想吃的壽司搶光(雖然被搶光的遺憾或許也是種體驗)，平板剝奪了這樣的樂趣。
知道了合點壽司有提供哪些料理之後，居然帶來了另一項失望，覺得品項好少，好像只有三四十樣，想吃的卻只有五六道，完全不像是走進一家迴轉壽司店應該體驗到的經歷，感覺好像應該應該要有一百道壽司可選，然後至少要有廿道想吃，還要碰運氣看能在迴轉台上拿到幾樣，吃到有點太撐地走出餐廳，可惜這不會發生在合點壽司。
平板還讓我的用餐方式做了調整，我幾乎不看迴轉台上有什麼壽司了，我不知道那道壽司已經在迴轉台上放了多久？是否還新鮮？看到想吃的壽司，我寧可用平板點餐，耐心地再等一下，至少是師傅手工現做，超新鮮的啦！
The tablet for you to place an order. I don't know if this is a advantage or disadvantage for the restaurant. For me, the advantage is that I can tell that what the restaurant have easily. But, as a Kaiten-zushi (also called Conveyor belt sushi, rotation sushi or sushi train), is it a benefit for the customer to know what exactly you have? The user may not have a chance to be surprised to find something he doesn't expect to see on the belt. Like me, I feel disappointed that the Gatten Sushi Taiwan only provide maybe less than 30 sushi, and I may just only want to try 5 or 6 of them. This is not what I expect when I go in a Kaiten-zushi. Another disadvantage of it is that I don't want to pick up the sushi on the train anymore, because I don't how long time it may be when it's on the train. I just want the totally fresh sushi by my orders.
The sweet shrimp, which is also the only one I got from the belt. It's sweet and nice.
The classical five, the flounder, salmon, cocktail shrimp (or whiskered velvet shrimp), Greater amberjack and the chu-toro. The best of them are the cocktail shrimp and chu-toro.
So I have another cocktail shrimp, it's sweet and it's big. I feel satisfied.
For me, the best things to eat in a Kaiten-zushi is they serve different level of the fish with cheap (or at least not so expensive) price. I ordered the otoro separately to compare the chu-toro and otoro. The otoro is more juicy since it has more oil. And I also got the point why people says you should eat the otoro later. You may feel satisfied and think this should be the end of this meal.
Maybe not me, I order another two things, the squid and scallop. The squid is chewy and the scallop is so sweet and soft. So delicious.
My girl friend ordered the last two, roasted tuna and roasted beef. They both are good. The chef keep the natural flavor of tuna and beef and they're cooked.
We spent NTD 1,436 in total. This is not a price you may expect for two people when you walk into a Kaiten-zushi in Taiwan. I may say the food is good, but the price may also be higher than a customer's expectation.
