Japanese cooking leans hard on dashi, a stock usually made with bonito flakes, so even miso soup and plain-looking noodles can trip vegans up. Ramen classes and food tours that cook around it are the easy fix, and temple cuisine, shojin ryori, is plant-based by tradition.
Experience the vibrant and delicious world of vegan night eats in Tokyo! Join our modern foodie tour and discover the best plant-based delights the city has to offer.
