Posted on August 31, 2019 by Jenny

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 →

VeganMoFo 2019: Convenience Store Snacks of Japan

Posted on August 25, 2019 by Jenny

Usually I do all my holidaying in Europe, which means there’s a pretty good chance that I recognise the vegan snacks available, or have enough of an idea about the language to scan for allergens. Japan was a whole different … Continue reading →

VeganMoFo 2019: Curry House CoCo Ichibanya, Okayama

Posted on August 24, 2019 by Jenny

One of the great things about the UK is that a lot of the chain restaurants now have vegan options on the menu, and good ones at that. Our research pointed us towards one Japanese chain with a similar set … Continue reading →

VeganMoFo 2019: Eko-in, Koyasan

Posted on August 22, 2019 by Jenny

Our main motivation for visiting Koyasan was to stay at one of the Buddhist monasteries and enjoy a massive feast! This was another example of traditional Japanese accommodation, but it was known as a shukubo, not a ryokan. It had … Continue reading →
