Hawai'i: Shirokiya

So many goodies to be discovered here! Remember the fresh Tsukitate mochi we got? That's only the beginning ^_^
I stop in Shirokiya many times when I am in Hawai'i. Not including the "formal" restaurants in the Ala Moana, Shirokya is my favourite place to eat in the mall. Sometimes I get the packaged sushi or sashimi set (sashimi from Take's). Get some hot rice on the side, and you are all set.
Shirokiya also brings in a food demos from Japan on a weekly basis. These guys with the mini fried shrimp musubis are pretty popular...
...I had them three days in a row for afternoon "snack" last week!
These pork buns were also another demo from the same week...man, juicy like you wouldn't believe :)
Freshly steamed buns are brushed with sesame paste, and then topped with the buta kakuni.
Assembly line. On the bottom right are lots of tiny, tiny musubis sold in six packs...a rainbow of colours. You can find my last Shirokiya post from summer 2008 here...not too much has changed about this place...thank goodness :)
