Friends invited me to a new restaurant last Saturday, the Star of India in Shimotoori. It is so new that I could neither find it in online guides to restaurants in Kumamoto, nor get the phone number from telephone directory assistance.The Star of India is on the south side of the side street south of Tsutaya. (Try saying that three times fast!) That is, the restaurant is about a block east of Shimotoori; it's on the second floor.
I found it easily without a map or address. Someone in the neighborhood with a digital camera-equipped cell phone sent me the picture - thanks!
There were a couple of loud patrons there at first (around seven p.m.) and lots of smokers. Be forewarned: the Star of India is a small place, and there is no no-smoking section. Since it appears quite popular, I recommend making reservations in advance.Image courtesy of Free Food Graphics
Of course the food is good, and serving sizes are generous. A set for four to five people was more than four of us could eat. The mango lassi is delicious.
