ベジ Vege DELI — Restaurant in Osaka

If you want vegan food, come here!Healthy and gut-friendly vegan food. I got the buddha bowl, taisha mochi and the pink garden smoothie. The taisha mochi is mixed with sweet potato and anko topped with the soybean powder, its chewy and nice. I also got the tofu matcha ice cream, if you love the taste of tofu then you will love this one because I enjoyed it. I got the zenzai too, which is a toasted mochi on a warm red bean soup. Typically zenzai is eaten in winter but I wanted to try it for summer.

The place is small with a few tables. But you can take it out to go which would be perfect for a picnic because sumiyoshi park is just right outside.

I thought it wasn't going to be filling at first, but wow. It was really hearty!

The staff were also very sweet and accommodating, passionately telling my friends and I about the different food ingredients and where their from.

Only thing is that it's a tiny shop with less than 10 seats. But it's so cute that they are reusing school desks and chairs for seating.

Highly recommended for people looking for vegan or...
