no more sushi

My favorite sushi restaurant and #1 take-out place closed their doors last week. As I walked by Tomo on my way to school one day last week, I was stupefied by the site of newspaper pages covering the storefront. (see photo) I prayed that the posted notice would ensure a temporary closing for renovations. No dice...closed for good. When I called my backup across the street, Tokyo Pop, to place an order tonight...no answer. Sure enough, I looked out my living room window to find a similar newspaper-clad storefront. Two in one week! My conclusion: Sushi is not recession-proof.

This is sad news about sushi in your 'hood! NYC places disappear overnight and with no warning! There was a place on Amsterdam that was pretty good...somewhere in the 80s I think?

Thanks for the lead...I'll scope it out. Sad we lived in the same neighborhood at different times!
