"Inside Katagiri near Grand Central I found Omusubi Gonbei's counter white rice to be "exceptional." The rice balls are huge — not adjusted for American appetites but even big in Japan — made with rice shipped from Japan unprocessed and milled once here. Fillings and options include spicy tuna, pickled mustard greens, pickled plum, roe, Spam, fried oyster, and baby sardines." - Serena Dai
