Mr. Onigiri (Northpoint City)

Japanese seaweed layered with Japanese rice and tartar sauce, sandwiched with tamagoyaki and Spam luncheon meat in between. Kinda miss this from my last Okinawa trip, so I bought one from Mr. Onigiri to try and see if it matches up to the Japan standard. I would say the basic taste is there, but the oomph factor is not. Can buy and try once lah, or if you need some convenience on-the-go bento.

Firstly, this onigiri was served cold, which is a no-go. You could see the luncheon meat and tamagoyaki already pre-cooked and laid neatly on the counter, waiting to be kiap into the onigiri. If it was at least warmer, it would probably enhance the taste and aroma.

Next, the Spam and tamagoyaki thickness was thinner compared to what I had in Okinawa, Japan. This made the overall bite less satisfying, as you can’t feel the gush of savouriness spreading through your mouth.

Lastly, I felt the tartar kind of overpowered the overall profile of this onigiri. It’s good they spread a lot of tartar sauce, but it diminished the main flavour of Spam and tamagoyaki.

Well, at least the rice was sticky enough together with the tartar sauce to hold onto the seaweed without much dropping.
