#4: Sushi Go Round

This is Maximo's favorite fast food option.  If we give him choice to go out to eat, he always asks for sushi-go-round.

There are many different sushi-go-rounds, but the premise is the same:

You sit down, order your drinks, and the sushi just rolls by and you grab what you want.

The color of the plate indicates the price of the sushi.  You can also order sushi from the menu and it will arrive to your table - either directly from the sushi chef, or it notifies you by sound when it's arriving, or there are even ones where a little train delivers it right to you.

It's a great way to "load up" on sushi.  They also have some non-sushi options like edamame, tempura, miso soup and other things.

When we're done stuffing our faces with sushi, the lady counts up all our plates by color and then we get the bill.

This will be a fun meal out for all of us!
