Sunny Blue & Three Twins

Out for a hike yesterday at Will Rogers State Park.

Got super hungry afterwards so I went straight to one of my faves: Sunny Blue!

They make super tasty rice balls (AKA Onigiri or Musubi), fresh, right on the spot. They also offer other Japanese appetizers, specialties (Kitsune Udon is YUMMS), and snacks (chips/drinks). So its the best place to go for a quick small meal.

My favorite flavor is Miso Mushroom. Oh and make sure to say you'll eat it "Under 20 mins" because the seaweed wrap they give you is different depending on when you're going to eat it. The picture below is my preference Salted Seaweed, it adds just the right amount of flavor to the rice to make it not taste so bland. And you can just see the crispiness of it. UGH HEAVEN.

Food quality: Taste is amazing. The ratio of rice to seasoning and seaweed flavor is just perfect. [8/10]
Presentation (of food): In little cardboard tray, paper bag and individual plastic wrap for each rice ball if you request togo. [7/10]
Service: Great, friendly, depends on the speed of the customer ordering & there is only one counter, but quick to make the food, never takes longer than 6-10 minutes for my order of 2 miso mushroom & 1 kitsune udon, even if there is 1 or 2 people who ordered ahead of me. [8/10]
Location: 2728 Main St., Santa Monica. It's on a buzzing street between Santa Monica beach and Venice beach areas. Always fun to take some time to walk around the area. Hipster and cool. Closest parking is street parking, if not then there is a parking area behind the shop, but it's Pay for time kind of parking $0.50 for 30 mins. There's another in Culver City, but I could talk about that one another day (mainly the same). [8/10]
Ambiance: Cute & simple. Only 4 seating areas. Small but functional for it's "togo" concept. [7/10]

Price: $3.15 and UP per omusubi. Others vary.
Would you come back? YES, because I love their variety and flavor and ambiance.

Next stop is Three Twins

As you can see in the picture way at the top, Three Twins is right next to Sunny Blue and together they make an amazing combo. Makes it even more worth it to stop by the area.

This is my favorite flavor here: Cookies & Cream.

I currently love ice cream too much to know how to rate it but when I figure it out I shall let you know.
