Where to buy spam musubi mold in Vancouver?

[twinkienic]

Just stumbled across this blog post: http://momofukufor2.com/2010/04/spam-... which reignited my love of spam musubi and desire to make it at home. I'm kicking myself for not picking up a spam musubi mold when I was in Hawaii a few months ago. Has anyone seen these for sale in Vancouver? Otherwise I might resort to making a makeshift mold out of a can...

Fujiya is the only place I can think of where they might be able to help you.

Good idea! Yeah I should check out Fujiya next time I am nearby.
I have a friend in LA who offered to send me one so if I can't find locally, that'll be my next option before ordering online.

When it was still open, Yuji used to make this periodically for the fellow that owns Konbiniya - apparently he's a huge fan. So: maybe ask the Konbiniya people the next time you're there?

I also recall seeing something along that line on the Suika menu this weekend, so maybe try there as well.

I can't believe it never occurred to me to seek out spam musubi when we were in Hawaii back in May !! I mean, it is an "indigenous creation" after all (I was gonna include the word culinary but hesitated ........)

ooh good call on Konbiniya! Thanks for that idea, clutterer!

LR - good excuse for a trip back to Hawaii, I guess! :)
