|  Why
does the same sushi come out successively?
 Sometimes,
it is difficult for people to decide which sushi they want to
eat. If we mix the sushi up, it is harder for them to distinguish
which one they want to eat. Therefore, we put three of the same
sushi in a row. This makes it easier for our customers to examine
and carefully choose which sushi they really want to eat.
How
fast does the conveyor move?
If the conveyor moves too slow, it can get frustrating
waiting for the sushi you want to eat. If the conveyor is moving
too fast, it is difficult to decide which sushi you want and still
have time to take it. We have found that the best speed is approximately
10 centimeters per second. This allows our customers ample time
to decide which sushi they really want and still have time to
take it.
Why
do people tend to eat more?
 Originally,
humans had to hunt for their food. Studies have shown that we
have a habit to chase objects with our eyes. When following food,
our eye sight stimulates our appetite. Therefore, when people
eat at a "Kaiten Sushi" restaurant, they tend to eat
a little more than they would at a traditional sushi restaurant.
"Kaiten Sushi" is cheaper and simple.
The average meal time is approximately 15 to 30 minutes. People
eat steadily for about 30 minutes until their blood sugar level
rises and their stomach tells them that they are full.
Customers' appetites are stimulated when they
see the sushi even when they are not hungry. Their brain tells
them “which one will I eat?” instead of “I will
not eat”. In addition, when one customer sees another customer
take a plate of sushi or the last sushi, they feel compelled to
take it before someone else gets it. It’s kind of a fun
competition.
Also, you will eat more at Sushi Station®
because we are the Best Sushi Restaurant in Chicagoland! Well,
you probably knew that, right?
