We visited Sumo Sushi & Bento on a particularly frigid weeknight, with the type of cold in the air that forces you to re-evaluate every decision that resulted in you being anywhere else other than the underside of a hefty blanket.
The Limassol restaurant, which finds itself on Makariou avenue, itself a welcome reprieve from the city’s coast-dominated culinary offerings, appeared as an oasis of sorts. Its clean, uncluttered wood-laden interior was awash in the orange glow of its light fixtures, rendering most surfaces, including the various dishes we ordered, copper-coloured, offering a pleasing contrast with the stark, wintery night outside.
Indeed, my dining partner opted for the green tea to accelerate the warming-up process after we had been seated, while I went with a tried-and-tested bottle of Asahi Super Dry, the well-known Japanese beer. There are always different routes to the same destination, as you can see.
