In Bothell, Washington, there's a conveyor belt sushi restaurant called Sushi Zone, and it has become wildly popular amongst the local populace for conveying a wide array of offerings. The concept is simple but endlessly entertaining: dishes circle the dining room on a two-tiered belt, letting you pluck whatever catches your eye. Sushi and sashimi are there, of course, along with other cold dishes like fruit, cold noodles, and desserts — a refreshing spread that keeps things light and varied. The lower level of the conveyor belt carries hot dishes such as shu mai, chicken katsu, and tempura, arriving warm and ready to eat without a moment's wait.
If the belt doesn't have exactly what you're craving, you can also order an even wider range of dishes from the menu. The ramen is good — a comforting, well-seasoned bowl that holds its own against dedicated ramen spots in the area. Whether you're in the mood for a quick snack or a full sit-down meal, the menu ensures there's something for every appetite and mood, making it easy to linger longer than you planned.
