Yo Sushi!

[lemma1968]

Now, there I was thinking I had chosen well'ish off the yo sushi menu for lunch.

I had prawn katsu (4 pts) and chicken teriyaki. According to their nutritional info the chicken teriyaki was 401cals and 5.9g sat fat.

Now, I am balking at this a bit for a number of reasons:

1. The portion was literally 4 tiny strips of grilled chicken with a drizzle of sauce on it (no more than 10ml) laid on a tablespoon of cabbage.
2. That would have meant I had eaten 12 points for my lunch - equivalent to a pizza - and there is no way that happened.
3. Where they got the sat fat figure from I don't know as it was clearly very lean grilled chicken. I had twice as much chicken on my subway last week. And it's never seen 401 cals.

I am normally good at guessing points but this has me flummoxed.

Any ideas anyone?

are you sure its not listed as per 100g? that sounds an awful lot for 4 strips of chicken with a sauce?

I think you are right. I still don't know how to point it though - I'm tempted to say it was about 1oz it was that small. I was shocked cos it cost £3.80

Thanks for that x

i just checked on a points site i use and its right, 7pts for the chicken and 3.5 for the prawn! so not 12 but still 10.5!! terrible for a wee bit of chicken, they must add oils or something?

 

[lemma1968]

But they boast that it is grilled chicken. If you read further down their nutrition page, they say the figures quoted are for 100g - my tiddly portion came nowhere near that. Phew.
