Sushi Mentai

Sushi Mentai outlet has been around the neighborhood for quite some time, but I have yet to get any chance to dine there due to difficulty to get a parking space...and long wait (for dine in).
 One fine 'weekday' afternoon I decided to try my luck.....managed to 'secure' a seat since I was dining solo. There were still people queuing outside but those are 2-3 persons groups.
I did not browse the menu, coz i dun intend to order from the kitchen. My purpose is to try out their sushi from the conveyor belt. Brisk business in this outlet as the chefs were all busy preparing fresh sushi and keep reloading the plates to the conveyor belt.
I had this prawn tempura sushi
a potato salad (superbly good!)
and whole loads of other sushis.....no need to describe here....
 I ended up with 7 plates: 5 reds + 2 yellows.
Price: RM2.90 for red, RM1.90 for yellow.
After GST and service charge my meal is RM21.70.
price is reasonable for a filling sushi meal, but can't expect much on the quality as it was just so-so, similar to 'Sushi King' standard.
This outlet is nearby schools and seems like a popular place for students to get cheap sushi fix. It was a quick meal for me (around half an hour) coz the place was crowded and the queue outside was getting longer...
 
  after this, I tapau chicken rice from the nearby 'Ipoh Chicken Rice restaurant' for dinner. This box of plain chicken rice with tauge costs RM 7.

Ah you ate at the branch near the chicken rice shop. I have not been there. I have only been once to the kuchai branch and once is enough cos like you say it is similar to sushi king standard.
