Randomness Guide to London - Differences between Version 8 and Version 7 of Restaurant Yoshino, W1J 0DB

Version 8 Version 7

Comment added by Anonymous: I disagree that Yoshino is expensive by London standards. In fact, I have found it to be the most reasonably priced sushi in London and high quality. Compare this to the expensive rubbish that Wasabi are selling down the road!
Note that they are not selling take away out of the Japan Centre any more and are temporarily selling a cut down menu from their restaurant (Sept/Oct 2008).

Yoshino is actually spread over two sites, on opposite sides of Piccadilly.

The restaurant is down a side alley (Piccadilly Place) a little to the west of Le Meridean Hotel. It's only small, so it's worth booking at weekends. It's very traditional and formal, and the sushi is wonderful quality. It's also a bit expensive, even for sushi in London.

The first time Flick visited, the menus were terrifying. I'm not sure if it's a traditional way of doing it, but rather than a list of food items they have a series of diagrams showing a plate with (say) three sections on it, then a list of items that you can have in each of those three sections. The fish is wonderful, though, as is the sake (huge range).

The other Yoshino site is the deli in the basement of the Japan Centre. It's quite common to see trays of sushi being taken out of the restaurant and over to the deli.

If you fancy a Japanese overdose, try Minamoto Kitchoan for pudding.

The Yoshino website is almost entirely useless.

Last visited by Flick, Autumn 2006.
