Day 1 Obika Runs Out of Food Early, Ready For Day 2

Obika Opening Day 

A few more bits and pieces of info about the newly opened Obika:

1. The takeout menu and eat in menu are in fact different.  The menu that was posted yesterday with all the under $10 sandwiches, etc. is for takeout only. The eat in menu is more expensive, and while not super expensive- is definitely not a Midtown Lunch.

2. Yesterday, the take out sandwiches ran out by 1 p.m., but I was assured they would be more prepared for the demand today.

3. No official confirmation on how big or small these $8 sandwiches actually are, but I have to say the food behind the glass looked pretty tasty.

4. Barring a situation where the food tastes like garbage, this place is going to be pretty packed every single day.

    Whoa!!! Excuse my uncultured stomach, but what on earth is that white doughy roll that’s in the last picture??!! It looks like someone cut Kirby into cross-sections after he ate a huge salad!

    FYI, I just stopped by a few minutes ago and they’d run out of take-out sandwiches again but were still doing take-out pastries. Sounded like the full menu was still available for eat-in.

    Oh… I just assumed that it was Japanese because the name sounds so Japanese (consonant, vowel, consonant, vowel, consonant, vowel) and the restaurant looks like a little sushi roll.
