Plates on Repeat: Sushi Express Rolls Into PLQ Mall
Craving a plate (or ten) of fresh sushi without breaking the bank? Sushi Express (爭鮮) brings its iconic conveyor belt dining to Level 4 of PLQ Mall, serving up more than 80 varieties of sushi from just $1.50++ a plate.
Asia’s Biggest Conveyor Belt Sushi Brand
Founded in 1996, Sushi Express is the biggest conveyor belt sushi brand in Taiwan and one of the largest in Asia, with over 300 outlets spanning China, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, and the United States. Its Chinese name, 爭鮮 (pronounced “zheng xian”), is a wordplay meaning “truly fresh,” reflecting the brand’s commitment to quality and innovation at an accessible price point.
The PLQ Mall outlet brings that same conveyor belt concept to Paya Lebar Quarter, letting diners watch a steady stream of colour-coded plates roll past their table and simply pick up whatever catches their eye. With more than 80 sushi variations on rotation, it is an easy way to sample a wide range of dishes without committing to a single order. The format also suits both a quick solo meal and a larger group gathering, since everyone at the table can pick their own plates at their own pace.
More Than Just Sushi on a Belt
Beyond the classic conveyor belt sushi, Sushi Express operates under a few different concepts in Singapore. 争鲜gogo is the brand’s takeout-focused offering for those who want their sushi fix on the go, while Sushi Plus is a separate, slightly more premium concept under the same group. Each concept has its own dedicated menu, giving the brand a fair bit of range beyond the standard rotating plates.
Pricing at the PLQ outlet starts from $1.50++ per plate, with plate colours typically indicating different price tiers, a familiar and transparent system for regulars of conveyor belt sushi dining. It remains a reliable, wallet-friendly option for a solo lunch, a casual dinner with friends, or feeding a hungry family without a long wait for individual orders. Beyond nigiri and maki, the rotating selection typically covers cooked items, tamago, and small desserts, so there is usually something for diners who prefer not to eat raw fish.
Pro Tip: Keep an eye on the plate colours as they pass — Sushi Express typically prices each colour differently, so a quick check before grabbing a plate helps you keep track of your bill as you go.
Where to Check for Current Promotions
Sushi Express periodically runs promotions and seasonal menu items through its Singapore outlets, shared primarily through its social media channels. The brand’s Happenings page is dedicated to press mentions and updates, though no specific store-wide promotion is currently confirmed for the PLQ outlet. It is worth following the brand’s Facebook or Instagram directly for the latest seasonal specials before your visit.

If you would rather enjoy Sushi Express at home, the PLQ Mall outlet is listed on foodpanda for delivery, with GrabFood and Deliveroo also offering delivery from Sushi Express outlets more broadly across Singapore. Delivery fees generally range from around $3 to $6 depending on distance from the outlet.
