Well, you know we had to get kaitenzushi (or conveyor belt sushi) at least once in Japan.

Chutoro tuna nigiri

We initially went to Kura Sushi because it's one of the big national kaitenzushi chains, but there was a 90-minute wait, so we said "fuck it," and kept walking down Dotonbori. And good thing we did, because that's how we found Daikisuisan, a smaller kaitenzushi chain restaurant (this one is only in 4 regions — Osaka, Hyogo, Nara, and Kyoto — rather than nationwide), where the food is superb, the variety is excellent, the service is efficient, the prices are reasonable, and — best of all — there is no line-up. Not sure why everyone was hellbent on waiting at Kura Sushi when this place is not even a block away, but hey, at least I got to eat first.
