FAQ

Noritaco?

Oh! yes, nori is the Japanese name for edible seaweed, it is used chiefly as an ingredient to wrap the sushi roll.  Taco it is a traditional Mexican dish consisting of a corn or wheat tortilla folded or rolled around a filling.

Nori + Taco = Noritaco: It is a crispy seaweed tempura nori shell with sushi rice and Japanese-Latin fusion filling.

How many noritacos could I have?

As many as you'd like, but depends of the person, usually if you just want a snack, one is ok, but if you are looking for a whole meal, two noritacos and a side would be more than fine. Every person is different.

I do not like coriander at all, could you please remove it?

We made fresh food preps everyday before the shift, some of the mixes that contains coriander are already done like the pico de gallo, however, there are noticos that can be served without coriander as it is added after we made them, in our menu you could be able to see a note when it is not possible to make it happen. We are coriander lovers btw. There are some sauces that contains coriander too.

Japan's rising sun flag?

Commercially the Rising Sun Flag is used on many products, designs, clothing, posters, beer cans (Asahi Breweries), newspapers (Asahi Shimbun), bands, manga, comics.  Among fishermen, represents their hope for a good catch of fish, means prosperity and hope for many others.

It was originally used in Japan during the Edo period (1603–1868 CE). Today it is used as a decorative flag on vessels as well as for festivals and events. The Rising Sun Flag is used at sporting events by the supporters of Japanese teams and individual athletes as well as by non-Japanese.

It is completely wrong to state that embracing the rising sun flag means taking pride in Japan’s military history. The design of the flag has been widely used in numerous scenes in the daily life of Japan for a long time, including celebrating childbirth and seasonal festivities. It is not an expression of political statement, nor a symbol of militarism. Many of objections against the rising sun flag are driven by political motives.
