Onigiri Time

Rice Balls. But not just any rice ball. “Onigiri”!

Rice Balls. But not just any rice ball. “Onigiri”!

Loved by Kids, Students, Adults and Grandparents.

If you’ve ever traveled to Japan, you would have seen these little triangular shaped rice balls sold at every convenient store, grocery and even at train stations. Not only is it a staple in every child's upbringing, it’s the quintessential on-the-go meal. What makes it so great is simply the RICE.

Japanese Short Grain rice is like no other and packs not only tremendous flavor and texture, but healthy nutrients to keep the body going all day.

We would like to showcase the beauty of Akita-Komachi Rice.

Come take part in this “Hands On” event where we will show you the ins and outs of making the perfect Onigiri. Little tricks here and there that will make this treat not only a Japanese favorite, but a NYC favorite as well.

Served with a hearty Japanese Miso Soup, it's perfect for a New York City winter's day.
