Sushiro Adds the Vegetable-Packed "Vege-ro" to Its Standard Menu, So I Went to Try It with Kiyoaki, Who Is on a Diet

In Japan, autumn is known as the "Autumn of Art," the "Autumn of Sports," and most of all, the "Autumn of Appetite."
It seems that the Autumn of Appetite even has scientific backing.
Well, during this season, the conveyor-belt sushi chain "Sushiro" is adding a new product lineup.
In addition to the "Vege-ro," which lets you start with vegetables first, the "Big-Cut Hon-Maguro Akami Festival" will begin on Wednesday, October 16, 2024!

Start with Vege-ro and Then Enjoy Seafood!

Kiyoaki (@kiyoaki_gohan) is well-known from his YouTube channel "Kiyoaki Shokudo."
As he also shares in his videos, he is currently on a diet. At the time of filming, he was 165 cm tall and weighed 117 kg.
As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the Sushiro restaurant, it was revealed that he was heavier than the hon-maguro, so he has to be careful with his meals!

But! This Sushiro advance tasting event is a little different.

The new "Vege-ro," a combination of vegetables and Sushiro, was developed based on customer requests!
Eating vegetables at the beginning of a meal is said to prevent a rapid spike in blood sugar, making it harder to gain weight, which could be a powerful ally for those who tend to overeat at a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant.

Salad Sushi (Salmon, Sea Bream, Octopus)

This dish features crispy lettuce, a mini rice ball, and the topping, along with sliced onion and tomato.
The topping is marinated, and since it is topped with a house-made soy sauce and lemon dressing, you can eat it as is!

Since Wednesday, October 2, 2024, these three varieties have been on sale for 150 yen (tax included) and up:

• Salmon Salad Sushi
• Sea Bream Salad Sushi
• Octopus Salad Sushi

It's perfect for people like me who want to eat sushi even while on a diet!
Whether you're eating alone or with friends, it's great that you can eat healthily without having to hold back.
It was my first time having carpaccio in sushi form, and it was very good.

• Product Name: Salmon Salad Sushi, Sea Bream Salad Sushi, Octopus Salad Sushi
• Price: 150 yen (tax included) and up

For Those Who Want More "Vege," There's the Salad Parfait!

Saiga NAK

What kind of parfait is a parfait that won't make you fat?
The correct answer is a salad parfait! (You'll still get fat if you eat too much.)

The two variations are currently on sale for 250 yen (tax included) and up.

• Shrimp Carpaccio-Style Salad Parfait
• Salmon Carpaccio-Style Salad Parfait

These do not contain any mini rice balls, and the toppings, tomatoes, lettuce, and sliced onions are combined with the house-made soy sauce and lemon dressing to form the flavor.

Salad sushi and salad parfaits are now part of the standard menu!
Before you indulge in sushi at Sushiro, be sure to try the Vege-ro!

It's great to be able to get several types of vegetables at once.
The shrimp is delicious, but I personally liked the salmon more.
The vegetables are very fresh and juicy, so it might be a good idea to add a little more soy sauce.

• Product Name: Shrimp Carpaccio-Style Salad Parfait, Salmon Carpaccio-Style Salad Parfait
• Price: 250 yen (tax included) and up
