New Restaurant Kuma Nori, From the Morning Wood Owners, Opens on the Peninsula - Eater SF

"The owners of hit San Mateo brunch spot Morning Wood, which closed in September, will open their newest restaurant on the Peninsula this week. Kuma Nori, named for owners Chad and Monica Kaneshiro’s dogs, opens on Wednesday, December 6 at 1861 El Camino Real in Burlingame. Unlike the more casual Morning Wood, which served Hawaiian-Japanese brunch, the new restaurant 'takes inspiration from Japanese shokudos, casual, neighborhood restaurants with often-changing menus,' the San Francisco Chronicle reports. It’s an intimate restaurant with just 28 seats and will not take reservations for dinner, which will be served Tuesday through Sunday from 5 to 9:30 p.m." - Lauren Saria
