■Sushi Island - your original catering
option!
 Sushi Island is a unique Marinepolis-designed device which allows Sushi Land to take its sushi conveyor belt concept nearly anywhere. It was invented by Marinepolis Japan in the 1990’s, and in 2001,
Marinepolis USA was able to obtain a model for exclusive use in the US. The fact
that it is the only device of its kind - in Japan and the US - makes it a truly
original catering option.

Sushi Island is made up of various components which are put together - on-site - in about an hour. Unlike our restaurants, where sushi chefs work from within the belt, Sushi
Island chefs work from behind the belt. Sushi Island’s design allows guests to view and select the sushi from the front side of the belt and the length of the belt allows guests to stand close by and
make selections, or...just observe without impeding on the ability of others to approach. With spotlights attached and
fully loaded belt circling , Sushi Island hardly resembles just another sushi bar. Instead, its techno look and lighting tends to become somewhat of a draw for guests...both sushi connoisseurs and abstainers alike

■Sushi Island History
|
In the 1990's, Marinepolis Sushi Land Japan representatives were impressed by
the consideration being paid to people with disabilities. The question
was asked, "is there a way to uniquely serve sushi to those who are not able to come to our restaurants?" Today
in Japan, Marinepolis Sushi Land portable conveyor-belts service
retirement homes, children's events and private parties and go by the
name of "Party Kun".
Since the Japanese name translates to "Party Boy", it was necessary to find a new name that would not give the wrong impression to US customers. A naming contest was held in 2002 and the best entry that represented the concept (a portable sushi conveyor that operates independently of the restaurants) was "Sushi Island". |
