Musubi, a delicious handmade rice ball, has a rich history that dates back centuries. Originally conceived as a portable meal for travelers, it has become a symbol of good luck. The origins of Musubi can be traced to World War II when it was served to soldiers stationed in Hawaii. Today, it has evolved into a beloved snack, cherished by locals and appreciated worldwide. For many Hawaiians, Spam holds a special place as a comfort food. The relationship between Hawaii and Spam goes way back, and it has become a staple in local cuisine. Musubi often features Spam as a key ingredient, creating a unique and delightful combination that captures the essence of Hawaiian comfort food.
We are proud to serve Musubi from Iyasume Cafe, where every Musubi is crafted by hand.
