Maze-Maze

At this point, yet another rice bowl vendor isn’t exactly exciting: countless restaurants and pop ups have copied the Chipotle-esque model, but few have managed to stick the landing when it comes to non-sushi Japanese-style bowls. Maze-Maze, we’re happy to say, is a different story. The New York-based tent has become a staple of the Grand Bazaar NYC, slinging Japanese sushi-less rice bowls since 2015. Maze-Maze is rocking a fair amount of options for you, with rice bowls built around proteins like organic tofu, fried chicken, ginger pork, marinated mushrooms, tuna, and eel. Add to that already solid lineup of bowls some expertly-grilled skewers, and there’s nowhere to go wrong. Hit up Maze-Maze on Sundays at the Grand Bazaar, or bring them right to you and have them cater your next event. MUST TRY Ginger Pork Bowl — Maze-Maze’s signature rice mix (organic brown rice, long grain brown rice, whole grain Wehani rice, whole grain black Japonica rice) topped with ginger pork, tomato, cucumber, avocado, tofu, egg, shiso leaf, nori, and bonito flakes
