Steaming bowl Emoji

Food

A deep, round bowl filled with noodles and topped with a pair of wooden chopsticks, with visible steam rising from the hot broth. It serves as a visual shorthand for a quick, comforting meal.

Usage Context

Widely used to discuss lunch plans, dinner cravings, or to highlight a love for Asian cuisine. It is a frequent companion to other food items like 🍣 or 🍙 when describing a full meal or a visit to a restaurant.

History

Added to the Unicode standard in 2010 as part of a major effort to bridge the gap between Western messaging apps and the widely popular mobile internet culture of Japan, where this icon was already a staple on early carrier-specific emoji sets.
