Cute Lunch

OMS/B (156 E. 45th St @ Lexington Ave.)

Omusubi (aka rice balls) is a popular Japanese snack food which is both portable and adorable. At Oms/B you can pick from a multitude of pre-made toppings that come in a variety of colourful wrappers and shapes for a pretty, delicious lunch. Although most people seem to get them to go as the shop is quite small, they have some limited seating at tiny tables. I had Set A which consisted of any 3 Rice Balls and a soup at $8.25. They were a wee bit cold, which makes sense as they pre-make them to cater to the fast moving lunch crowd, but I think it would be nice to have the option of getting freshly fried tempura on your rice ball if you wanted the extra hot crisp.
