Yakitoria
We finally visited Yakitoria sushi restaurant. Since it was labeled “democratic” I was a bit skeptical about potential food quality. Since I had low expectations, the place actually proved to be quite nice. Usual fare: sushi, other Japanese dishes, teas, at one ethnically asian server per restaurant and fashion TV without sound on. This is about the Artema St. location. Also, I saw a suspiciously similar-looking store front with the same name in London walking on the canal towards Little Venice… The web does not mention this to be an international chain. Marketing idea rip off? Common Japanese term for sushi place?

hi olechko. yakitori is the japanese word for those sticks of grilled chicken, so there are a lot of restaurants named like that!

ok; now it makes sense, but still, the store front is so similar…

Dear Olechko. It’s surprising how chain names mean nothing in this part of the world. When I was in Almaty, I spotted a Marks & Spencer and was really happy. Until I walked inside and saw that it was a boutique with yukky clothes and very inflated prices (Almaty is strangely very expensive). I’m glad you’re working on your democratic prices theory! Love LMM
