We had an onigiri craving (again) and followed it straight to @lenigiriz, and honestly? Zero regrets. The place is wonderfully cozy. The menu is packed with creative flavors, and the ones we tried — spicy tuna and sun-dried tomato — were genuinely excellent: super fresh, well-balanced, and dangerously easy to inhale.

❤️❤️❤️Bonus points for the Valentine’s Day chaos: they’re shaping the onigiri like little hearts until then. Yes, it’s corny. Yes, it’s adorable. And yes, we are absolutely here for it❤️❤️❤️❤️
I paired mine with a hojicha latte, which was smooth, comforting, and quietly doing its job very well.

Also worth mentioning: the pennies embedded in the floor, which is such a fun, quirky detail.

All in all, carbs can be cute, cozy, and emotionally supportive. We’ll be back. Probably soon. 🍙💛
