Kanpai is my favourite sushi restaurant. The number 10 or 16 bus (which you can take from the bus stop just beyond the traffic lights passed The Pantry (opposite Westgarth church - just over a 5 minute walk from the flat). Either bus will take you to Usher Hall on Lothian Road which is just a 2 minute walk to Kanpai Sushi on Grindlay Street. The bus journey takes about 20 minutes.
