Once I entered the store, staff were very friendly and welcoming (which is hard to come by in Paris). The staff explained everything in detail what they had in the store. There was a slight issue with credit card however, overall, it was very pleasant experience from start to finish. Something to note about attention to detail: The staff even placed a sticker that indicated which box is which. In addition, there is sheet of non-stick paper in the box that is usually lacking in other store!
Food: the size isn’t as big as other onigiri place but that shouldn’t take away from its very tasteful rice that was very well cooked. They do have vegetarian option but I opted for chicken and salmon that was well seasoned and accompanied by small vegetable mixed into the ingredients.

The side of Tsukemono was also seasoned lightly with nice crunchiness.
I heard that they do change the ingredients weekly, so I am looking forward to tasting new taste...

To add to the food, the staff was very friendly, to the point that we had a pleasant conversation partly in my broken French and his flawless English. If you are in Paris, I recommend visiting this little...
