Cortelyou Road now has a surfeit of restaurants and I could not be happier. I recently tried lunch at Kumo and was pleasantly surprised. Their Bento Boxes were a full meal, soup, salad, sushi, dim sum and the main course, and very tasty. The inexpensive prices also helped leave a good taste in my mouth.
Unlike Purple Yam, Kumo is unpretentious, the portions are not miniscule and the prices reasonable. I was especially impressed by there large variety of non sushi appetizers.
There is a pleasant garden in the back, but no air conditioning
I am looking forward to visiting Kumo again and again
