This underrepresented cuisine has finally surfaced at Upper Room, a pop-up run by chef Andrew Bantug and Joyce Lau on Sundays at Tomo that routinely sells out in minutes.

Tomo closing in Vinings to focus on Buckhead
A tweet sent out yesterday by RestMart.com alerted my colleague Jackson Reeves to the surprising news that Tomo chef/owner Tomohiro Naito has put his original location on Cobb Parkway in Vinings up for sale. A called to Naito confirmed that he’s leaving Vinings to concentrate on his new location in Buckhead, at 3630 Peachtree Road—the skyscraper that includes the Ritz-Carlton Residences.
