Right as
Hello,
The speciality of Japanese cuisine is that the dishes are served fresh, right as they’re prepared.
How can I interpret “right as” here? Does it mean the dishes are served almost at the same time as they are done preparing.

I expected "just as they're prepared" or maybe "as soon as they're prepared".
(By the way, in AmE it would be "specialty". Fewer syllables.)
