AMAZING
1st MISO KALE MUSUBI
Ma'Ona Musubi, Honolulu
Hands down, the best musubi EVER! Nutty miso & sauteed kale(!) gave almost bonite-like texture & flavor.
REALLY GOOD
2nd 3 VEGAN MUSUBIS
Peace Cafe Hawaii, Honolulu
At Kakaako Farmers market, From the top clockwise: Tofu-spam musubi, "spam" musubi, and tofu "katsu" musubi. There is one more (peace musubi) made with tempei but seemed they did not have the one on this day.
3rd VEGAN SOY PROTEIN MUSUBI
Peace Cafe Hawaii, Honolulu
The plantbased answer to the local fave/comfort food. I ate variety of vegan "spam" musubis but overall, this is no ka oi, da bes🌱✌🏽 Also at Kakaako Farmers Market.
4th PEACE MUSUBI
Peace Cafe Hawaii, Honolulu
Da original vegan musubi with seasoned tempei on top. From my understanding, this one has been around since they opened the cafe, way before all the other vegan musubis. Tempei is a bit crumbly when eating but well-seasoned & goes so well with musubi rice. And yes, been my fave after all these years, and still is, along with others.
5th VEGAN SPAM MUSUBI - WHITE RICE
Kozo Sushi Kapahulu, Honolulu
The regular Rice. Not BAD AT AKL🏊🏿‍♀️
6th TOFU "SPAM" MUSUBI
Peace Cafe Hawaii, Honolulu
As it explained, tofu musubi, probablly the simplest plantbased "spam" musubi you'd expect but tofu is seasoned very well, won't feel like it's tofu. I'd eat this every day!
7th TOFU "KATSU" MUSUBI
Peace Cafe Hawaii, Honolulu
Tofu "katsu" musubi, vegan kastu(made with breaded deepfried tofu) with the 🇯🇵 katsu sauce drizzled on the musubi rice, then nori wrapped in the middle... The new plantbased take of some local fave.
8th VEGAN SPAM MUSUBI -BROWN RICE
Kozo Sushi Kapahulu, Honolulu
Had an option to alternate the rice, since they have brown rice in the menu.. Except for the rice is kinda dry, not bad though
9th VEGAN SPAM MUSUBI
Kozo Sushi Kapahulu, Honolulu
Skeptical at first but decidedc to give it a try. The only problem was, I've never had a real Spam musubi in my life, that said, no comparison. Except for a bit greasy, pretty good✌🏽
10th KOMBU MUSUBI
Musubi Cafe Iyasume, USA
My all time favorite musubi. Simple combination of kombu, warm rice and crisp nori, simple yet satisfying lil thing👍🏽🇯🇵
11th KOMBU MUSUBI
Marugame Udon, Honolulu
Their version has more kombu in it. On the top of musubi, and inside as well.
12th TAKANA MUSUBI
Musubi Cafe Iyasume, USA
Nothing beats fteshly made warm musubi🍙 They also use Tamaki Rice, so the rice also tastes better✌🏽
13th VEGGIE MUSUBIS
Ma'Ona Musubi, Honolulu
Pop up at the sunset mele @Convention center. Miso kale & Kombu musubu.
14th KOMBU MUSUBI
Ma'Ona Musubi, Honolulu
Interesting shaped musubi, and easier to taste without dropping the filling✌🏽
17th PLAIN MUSUBI
Asami's Kitchen, Hilo
Just a simple rice balls, but ths rice's cooked really well🤙🏽
18th KOMBU MUSUBI WITH BROWN RICE
Musubi Cafe IYASUME, Honolulu
Always prefer brown rice over white rice, because of flavor, but when it comes to musubi or sushi, it's a bit tough call. Brown rice is not sticky enough, hard to eat wothout getting messy...
JUST OK
19th MUSHROOM MUSUBI
Island Naturals Market & Deli, Hilo
Cool to find a musubi bento at non-okazuya food store but unfortunately the flavor is a little "off", something is definitely missing to call this 🍙. While the appearance was very appetising, the flavor/seasoning was almost non-existed. Good chunks of mushrooms in it but no mushroom flavor at all...funny thing is, mushroom is an alternative flavoring for plantbased broth if not kelp...don't know why this musubi is non-flavored...and no sodium either...all I tasted was noti & 🍚...
