this past tuesday (7/13) was the opening night of tumbao tuesdays a “salsa meets sushi” night at a japanese restaurant in copley square, boston. the first thing i noticed walking into the dance room was the floor. it was spotless and at least at the beginning of the night, you could have eaten your sushi off it. it seemed almost profane to be wearing street shoes on it.

the layout of the room reminded me of the green street grill, a rectangle with bench seats along the two sides, except this was bigger and a much nicer floor. the music courtesy of dj d martinez and the sound system were great. the only problem (hopefully a short lived one) was the low turnout, presumably on account of the rain that night.

the location is good, it’s a 2 minute walk from the copley t-stop, and it looked like there was ample street parking. i plan on bringing friends there next week. some pictures now available in the gallery.
