Kushi Comes to Town

Muramoto III

Kushi Bar Muramoto will open soon at 106 King Street (the former location of Restaurant Muramoto which moved down the street into bigger digs). If you're not hip to kushi it's a Japanese style of cooking where various kinds of meat and seafood are grilled or fried on skewers.

More Dogs on State Street

Another restaurant specializing in Chicago-style hot dogs will open soon at 505 State Street (the space formerly occupied by Pelmeni, the Russian dumpling shop) will soon open: The Dawg House.

RESTAURANT UPDATE

Yet another Indian restaurant is opening on the square: Flavors of India (on Mifflin near State). Plaka (410 E. Wilson St., formerly Cleveland’s Diner) FINALLY opens tomorrow (July 22) for breakfast and lunch. It will be another few weeks before they start serving dinner. Great Deal: Woofs (114 King Street) Monday thru Friday Happy Hour… sit outside and enjoy full-size, half-price drinks from 4 to 7 p.m. Another real deal is Madison Magazine Restaurant Week which begins this Sunday, July 27. If you’ve never participated in a past Restaurant Week, you’ve definitely missed some great menus at ridiculously low prices. More info about this even can be found here.

RESTAURANT UPDATE

The new Restaurant Muramoto at 225 King Street (currently at 106 King Street) will open by the end of the month. Plaka (formerly Cleveland's Diner) at 410 E Wilson Street should open by the end of the week. Angelic Brewery at 322 W. Johnson Street is out of business.
