unkimika — Restaurant in Tokyo

The entrance is inconspicuously located near the fence, just behind the car parking spaces; look for the little sign. On entering, there's the front counter, with a small selection of items for sell, like soap and groceries. The vibe is cosy, simple and comfortable.

I was attentively served by a very friendly and kindly elderly lady with a fun sense of humor, who patiently explained the menu to me. The coffee was good, as was the rice set I got, and the cake. All vegan, all homemade. I particularly liked the dressing on the salad, which was made from soybeans. They seem particular about where they source their ingredients, and for sure, I can taste the quality. It's all very reasonably priced, too! Would love...

I stumbled upon this quaint vegan restaurant after visiting Gotokuji Temple. The restaurant is very small but they had at least 2 tables that could accommodate parties of 4-5. The restaurant is owned by a mother and daughter, both of whom were working. The mother took our order and explained everything to us. She was so incredibly sweet. Finding meals with lots of fresh vegetables is actually kind of hard in Tokyo, so I really appreciated the colorful fresh salad with a delicious homemade dressing. We also had the keema curry which was pretty good. I would love to come back again when I have more time and try more of the menu!

There was no English menu but you can just use...

After a week of ramen, yakiniku and Izakaya, this little gem refreshed my body. Everything is homemade including the miso. The place is run by a wonderful mother and daughter team. As I don’t speak Japanese, I asked for them to select me an Omakase dinner. I was not disappointed. 3 small dishes: tempeh cutlet, dry daikon and spinach salad, sesame tofu, onigiri and miso soup. Try their homemade Amazake, no sugar added but still sweet and slightly smoky from using brown rice. Will definitely try to find this secret hidden...
