Sushi Hut is a sushi restaurant at 240 Barrington St in Spreydon, Christchurch, and holds a 4.9 Google rating. A good sushi shop lives or dies on its rice: properly seasoned, still soft, and made in fresh batches through the day rather than sitting in a chiller going firm. Regulars tend to come at lunchtime, ask what was made that morning, and know the popular fillings can sell out by mid-afternoon. Hand rolls assembled to order are the pick when you want the nori crisp. Steady turnover and fish kept properly chilled tell you most of what you need to know. For Spreydon locals, a highly rated sushi stop on Barrington St is a handy thing to have round the corner.
