Great tempura made with tofu skins. As all their tempura you order it by the piece and this kind was priced 350 ¥ per piece. It was extremely well fried and with a perfect texture. Served with its own sauce. I can only recommend this fantastic tofu restaurant in Shibuya, so many delicious tofu dishes and a lot of vegan options. #tokyo #veganintokyo #tempura #vegantempura #japanesefood #japan #veganinjapan

Tofu Skin tempura

You can order tempura by the piece, which means the 220 ¥ price is for each piece of asparagus. The portions are therefore tiny but this is good if you want full control of what gets in your tempura and in which quantities 😊 This asparagus tempura was perfectly fried and had a crunchy consistency. It’s not salted at all, but you’re served salt on the side as well as its dipping sauce. #tempura #vegantempura #asparagus #tokyo #tokyovegan #veganintokyo #japan #veganinjapan

For our last night in Tokyo, we couldn’t help but go back to Sorano, probably the restaurant we loved the most during our Japan trip. This time we tried new dishes, including this cold silken tofu, which didn’t disappoint. It was definitely the best cold tofu we had throughout our stay, the texture was perfect and the seasoning top-notch. Price was only 550¥. If you’re a #tofulover you can’t miss this! #tofu #tokyo #tokyovegan #veganintokyo #japan #veganinjapan #japanesefood

This ice cream was a little bizarre but I did enjoy it! It was the first time for me trying a tofu flavored gelato and didn’t know what to expect: the flavor was unusual and not too sweet, it tasted like the good tofu I had during my dinner here and not too much like soy beans. It was pleasant but I guess I would have liked something more sugary. Price was 748¥. #gelato #tofu #tofulover #icecream #veganicecream #tokyo #tokyovegan #veganintokyo #japan #veganinjapan #japanvegan

Tofu Gelato

Your visit to Sorano would be worth it just if you order this dish: at the beginning of the dinner they will bring to your table a big stone stove with a square container on top of it, they will tell you not to touch it because it’s hot, you will go on with your dinner tasting the amazing dishes that you ordered while the organic soy milk cookes into tofu and at the end of your dinner you will finally taste it. For me it was the most amazing tofu texture I have ever experienced, it really does melt in your mouth like they say on the menu. It’s also accompanied with some salt, lime and sauce if you want to add some extra flavor. You can order this for 2 or 3 people, we ordered the 2-people portion which costed 1,320 ¥. I’m also adding some pictures of the venue to show how lovely it was: really nice Japanese style ambient. The vegan dishes are all pretty cheap but they are small portions: make sure to order enough and try as many things as possible because for me it was all worth it! #tofu #tofulover #tokyo #tokyovegan #japan #veganinjapan #veganjapan #veganfriendlyrestaurant

This was another great dish from Sorano, a restaurant in Shibuya with many vegan friendly and tofu-based options. These skewers were made from wheat gluten and they were super flavorful thanks to the miso and soy beans paste. They had a strange sticky consistency but it didn’t bother me. Price was 935 ¥. #tokyo #japan #tokyovegan #veganintokyo #veganinjapan #veganfriendlyrestaurant

This dish embodies the concept of “fried to perfection”. It’s a deep fried silken tofu served with a special soup to dip it. The texture was unbelievable. This dish was so savory! I still dream about this! 10/10 would definitely recommend. Please if you go to Tokyo make sure to pay a visit to this restaurant, it has some of the most delicious tofu dishes I had haver tried and a lot of vegan friendly options. The place is also very nice and typical! #tokyo #tokyovegan #deepfried #deepfriedtofu #veganinjapan #japan #japanvegan #tofu #tofulover

Deep-fried Soft Silken Tofu

Another amazing tofu dish from this charming and vegan-friendly restaurant in Shibuya. This was freshly made tofu skin served with soy sauce, wasabi and sudachi citrus juice. The consistency was amazing, it reminded me of “stracciatella” the filling of burrata which unfortunately it’s a cruel food. I also really loved the dipping sauce that accompanied this, it added to the tofu the right tanginess and made the final taste of the dish amazing. The price for this dish was 880 ¥ (5 CHF). #tofu #tofulover #shibuya #tokyo #tokyovegan #vegantokyo #veganintokyo #veganfriendlyrestaurant #japan #veganinjapan

This was one of the most amazing tofu I have ever eaten! It was avocado flavored and it melted in my mouth. So delicate yet so flavorful, it was simply delicious. I really loved this restaurant: it was mainly tofu-focused however it is not a vegan nor vegetarian restaurant. It does have a lot of vegan options though. The ambience is also very nice, traditional Japanese style. Probably my favorite place in Tokyo, I can only recommend! #tofu #tofulover #avocado #tokyo #tokyovegan #plantbasedtokyo #veganfriendlyrestaurant #japan #veganinjapan #japanvegan #veganjapan

My friend and I spontaneously visited this restaurant, and we're glad we did. We tried some of their vegan-friendly options - handmade tofu, fried tofu, dengaku, and tofu gelato. Some dishes labeled 'vegetarian' might not be entirely vegetarian-friendly due to bonito stocks (だし). Make sure to inform the staff about your food preferences.
