handrolls
Wrapped sushi cones
Handrolls are cone-shaped sushi made by wrapping seaweed around rice and fillings—typically fish, vegetables, or both—meant to be eaten immediately with the hands rather than chopsticks.
Unlike cylindrical maki rolls cut into pieces, a handroll is a single serving shaped like an ice cream cone: The omakase ended with handrolls made to order at the bar.
