We were invited to venture out to Brossard for some Japanese rice balls at @onigirishop.brossard, and it was comfort wrapped in seaweed.

We ordered one of each type—classic, fusion, and the chef’s special—because restraint is overrated when onigiri is involved.
The unagi was savory and delicious. The avocado-salmon fusion felt bright and modern. And then came the “Fuji Mountain” from the chef’s specials: a glorious, beautifully assembled, cheese-crowned delight that looked as good as it tasted.

Be warned: these little triangles are deceptively filling. A single one can carry you through a lunch break, fuel a small bite on the go, or satisfy that late-night craving after a night out. Honestly, onigiri should replace pizza as the official reward for helping someone move—much easier to hold, far more dignified, and arguably more delicious.

Just when we thought we’d reached peak comfort, the mini ramen made its appearance. “Mini” in size only—but it hit the spot. We tried the spicy version (but there are other options, too). To complete the experience, we sipped on a refreshing matcha-yuzu drink, a perfect blend of earthy and citrus.

Whether you’re hungry, hurried, or simply hunting for something satisfying, this is a place worth visiting—again and again.
