Lisbon Presents a New Way to Eat Sushi
Wednesday, July 1st, 2009
Throw away your chopsticks and get ready to eat your sushi with your hands. And that’s no ordinary sushi either — instead of a tiny roll, it is a large sushi cone. That’s what is offered at Noori, a new sushi fast-food restaurant between Lisbon’s Baixa and Chiado districts. It is actually not an original idea, as those already familiar with all kinds of sushi and sashimi know that such a cone-shaped piece of nori is called a temaki. At Noori you can choose what goes into your temaki, with the rice being accompanied by salmon, tuna, or a variety of other ingredients. There are different menus available, from €4.20 to €7.45, and you can have them every day from 11AM to 10PM. If you don’t wish to go for a menu and simply want one temaki, it’s just €3.25 or €3.85 depending on the ingredients.
There are a few seats if you’d like to have them right there, but you can always grab them to enjoy somewhere else. Noori is found right next to one of the exits of the Baixa-Chiado metro station in the center of the city and makes an inexpensive lunch or dinner so you can save to splurge at other restaurants in the city later.
Address: Rua do Crucifixo, 87
