Sunrise Mart

The East Village's Sunrise Mart (above the St. Marks Bookstore) had not been part of my walking tour of "Little Tokyo," but is great one-stop shopping for all of your Japanese grocery needs. During a recent visit, I filled my basket with items which reminded me of my stint in Japan: a package of semi-firm tofu, half of a kabocha, a pair of blue plastic chopsticks with little bears on them, shirataki noodles for sukiyaki I was going to make, some mochi, almond crunch pocky, and a package of 20 serving size packets of furikake (rice seasoning) decorated with just about the cutest thing, ever--the shinkansen, Japan Railways' Bullet Train corporate mascot.
