Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
You know that stuff you wish for that if it came true it would make your head explode (miniature exotic animal pets!) Well, it's happened to Fry Girl -- almost.
Conveyor-belt sushi, or kaiten-zushi, might be the fastest food ever. So it's spicy tuna rolls and edamame floating by instead of burgers and fries. You can still conceivably eat standing up and you don't need a menu. How's that for a quick bite?
Fry Girl popped into Teharu Sushi in Tempe for a conveyor-belt crash course. How was it? What's the best way to score the hot stuff? What do the colored plates mean? And who eats the pudding? Find out in my latest column.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
