Coco Ichibanya – Curry Restaurant:
When hunger strikes, head to Coco Ichibanya for a #curry fix that won't disappoint. With a wide array of curry options they also offer vegan curry with customizable toppings, this chain restaurant is a safe bet for satisfying your cravings while exploring Japan.
Tempura Temptations
Tendon Tenya:
Asakusa surprises yet again with Tendon Tenya, a local favorite for #tempura set meals. While exploring the streets, we stumbled upon this and ordered a vegetarian tempura meal that hit the spot after a day of adventure. This was not the best meal I ate but definitely satisfied my hunger.
Convenient Comfort: Konbini Adventures
After a day of exploring Tokyo's vibrant streets, we often found ourselves in need of a quick and satisfying bite to eat. That's where #konbini – Japan's beloved #convenience stores – came to the rescue! Offering a plethora of fresh and delicious options, these stores became our go-to for a much-needed energy boost.
From hearty egg sandwiches to flavorful onigiri and crisp salads, konbini shelves are stocked with an array of vegetarian-friendly delights. Whether you're craving a light snack or a full meal, you'll find plenty to satisfy your hunger. And let's not forget about the tantalizing array of desserts and refreshing drinks – the perfect way to treat yourself after a long day of sightseeing.
While the hot food section often boasts tempting treats like potato croquettes and instant ramen, vegetarian options may be a bit trickier to come by. But fear not, with a bit of label-checking and exploration, you're sure to find something delicious to enjoy.
As for me, my konbini go-to combo usually consists of an egg sandwich paired with some fresh fruits or salad, washed down with a refreshing peach drink and topped off with a delectable dessert. It's the perfect way to refuel and recharge after a long day of exploring. So next time you're in need of a quick and convenient meal in Tokyo, don't hesitate to pay a visit to your friendly neighborhood konbini – you won't be disappointed!
With this ultimate guide to vegetarian dining in Tokyo, you're all set to embark on a culinary adventure like no other. So pack your chopsticks and get ready to indulge in a gastronomic journey through the heart of Japan's bustling capital!
