Yesterday, a Japanese student selling omurice around the metro has gone viral. Kuya Omu-rice, as he’s christened himself, was last seen selling his omurice in an ice box at Aurora Boulevard in Cubao. Now, despite the deluge of followers and fans, it isn’t like most of us would ever get the chance to try his products. So, for the unfortunate souls who have a newfound craving for the Japanese rice omelette, here are a few restaurants you can get them at if you don’t have the time to chase down Kuya Omurice.
1. Coco Ichibanya
In a pool of curry, their omurice is a fluffy egg cloud that opens up to steaming hot Japanese rice.

4. Le Petite Souffle
Not necessarily the traditional omurice, but Le Petite Souffle’s delectable variety of souffles are filled with curry rice, among the few stuffings.
