Soki Sushi Train owners Ting and Maggie Li, and head chef Koji Honda, are marrying culinary delights with innovative transport in Queenstown. Photo: Mountain SceneThere’s a new high-speed transport option in Queenstown’s CBD, designed for sushi delivery. Soki Sushi Train, which officially opened last Saturday in the former Sal’s Pizza space on Shotover St, boasts a custom-made miniature bullet train which travels around the restaurant, delivering special orders straight from the kitchen to diners’ tables. Owner Ting Li says it’s not only Queenstown’s first sushi train, but it’s the first restaurant in New Zealand using the "bullet train" concept. While sushi favourites revolve around the venue on a classic sushi train carousel, special orders, like sushi, ramen, and udon, and appetisers like oysters, karaage chicken, and edamame can be placed via a tablet for the bullet train to pick up from the chef.
