This tiny restaurant, located just off Banff Avenue, offers a quirky approach to sushi dining. Patrons are seated around a circular counter that is serviced by a model train. If any of the cars is hauling something that looks tempting, just lift the plate off the train and dig in. The regular array of sushi items is available, such as shrimp roll, red tuna and BBQ eel. Each dish is priced according to the color of the plate. At the end of your meal, your server will count your plates to tally up your bill.
