Posted on October 21, 2024 by Jenny

I’ve already complained once about a restaurant misleadingly named to suggest it’s fully vegan – I’m afraid this is another such place. Until about May, this place was all vegan, offering a vegan fine dining set menu. Then they introduced … Continue reading →

Posted on October 14, 2024 by Jenny

After our brief stay in Hakodate, we spent a couple of nights at Lake Toya (a town with no reliable sounding vegan options) and then arrived in Sapporo, the biggest city in Hokkaido, ready to eat! Again, it was not … Continue reading →

After Tokyo, we made our way north to Hokkaido with our first stop in Hakodate. We stayed there for two nights, but only ate at one spot – Yasai Bar Miruya. There are not loads of vegan options in Hakodate, … Continue reading →

Vegan in Tokyo: Everything Else

Posted on September 30, 2024 by Jenny

Here’s a continuation of our time in Tokyo, this time not featuring a single ramen. I don’t think we had a single ramen-free day, so these were simply accompanying the many ramens we tried! I did briefly wonder on our … Continue reading →

Vegan in Tokyo: Saido

Posted on September 23, 2024 by Jenny

Saido warrants its own post because we had a lot of different dishes there. It’s ranked as one of the best vegan restaurants in the world, and so we were really keen to visit. Reservations are required (and can be … Continue reading →

VeganMoFo 2019: Kawaii Monster Cafe, Tokyo

Posted on August 31, 2019 by Jenny

I booked us a table at the Kawaii Monster Cafe in Tokyo for the last night of our holiday, because I couldn’t think of a more perfect way to end the absolute weirdness of the trip. Every day of our … Continue reading →

VeganMoFo 2019: Flowers, Miyajima

Posted on August 30, 2019 by Jenny

The floating gate at Mijayima ranks quite highly among the top sights in Japan, and we were pleased to see that it was a very manageable day trip from Hiroshima. We took the train and ferry, and there it was … Continue reading →

VeganMoFo 2019: Parco alla Pace, Hiroshima

Posted on August 29, 2019 by Jenny

Hiroshima was a very strange place to visit. It’s uncomfortable to be a tourist in a city that was completely destroyed in the worst way imaginable. It’s hard to segue from talking about that history to fun ruminations about food, … Continue reading →

VeganMoFo 2019: Yappenachi, Hiroshima

Posted on August 28, 2019 by Jenny

Okonomiyaki is one of the Japanese specialities that we’d suspected would pass us by, due to the fact that it’s a pancake and unlikely to be veganised. Dr HH was excited to try it while we were in Osaka, but … Continue reading →
