Kappo Sono
The newest iteration of Kappo Sono is an ebillient 12-seat counter overlooking the Manhattan cityscape helmed by one of the most renowned and beloved practitioners of kaiseki in the United States, Chef Chikara Sono. Although a major proponent of hyper-seasonality, precise techniques, and Japanese tradition, more important is Sono's unwavering humility, humor, and warmth for those in his presence.
