Although the idea of sushi being delivered mechanically isn't entirely new in the country as there was one that had plates delivered on conveyer belts (now closed), but Genki sushi has them delivered on train like carriages and has a touch screen panel to place your orders.

Too bad I don't find food-bearing racecars that...
