Sri Petaling's long-persevering Niko Niko Onigiri has relaunched with a fun facelift, more stylish than ever, with plenty of substance and sincerity behind its new sheen.
Niko Niko's signature specialty is a satisfying snack - chunky, hearty rice balls with a fresh taste and texture, flavourful with a wide variety of fillings at wallet-friendly prices.
Munch on one with a whole large, jammy-yolked soy egg for just RM3.90 or with a generous stuffing of raw salmon for RM5.30. Other options span octopus (RM4.80) to unagi (RM5.30) and much, much more, customisable with wasabi mayo, soy sauce and other condiments.
Beyond the addictive onigiri, pleasurably proportioned for the right ratio of rice to filling, Niko Niko Onigiri serves substantial noodle and rice dishes.
The Fuji Apple Curry Rice is soulfully comforting, thick and earthy with carrots and potatoes (RM14.90 with miso soup and potato salad; add just RM4 for chicken katsu).
