Delicious Shojinryori! - Edit
*Vegan Monk Food Restaurant- No meat* phone: 0739206158 We drove from the beach in Shirahama to this restaurant, and thanks to google maps it was easy enough to find. It’s in a residential area with not much else around except for mountains and rice paddies. We got the ¥3,000 dinner set which had a small starter, a big tray of little dishes, tempura, aubergine with dengaku sauce, and the last dish was a yummy kinako dessert with coffee. The food was so good and cooked by a former Koyasan monk. The owners are super nice and had loads of good recommendations for our trip.

Cons: Might be hard for some to find

Amazing food and service - Edit
I'm not sure why this place was listed as non-vegetarian. I checked with the owners when I went there and they assured me there are no animal ingredients of any sort in their food. I speak Japanese fluently so I talked to the owners for a long time and the chef told me his history and experience. The chef is a former Koyasan monk (born and raised) so he told me he had never even tried mayonnaise until he found the vegan type made by Japanese brands. Not all Japanese monks are vegan, but this guy is!
Read moreAnyhow, I went to this restaurant last year in August and the food was delicious. I ordered the lunch set and there was so much food to eat, despite the reasonable price. I live in Nagoya but I wish I could go back because I want to eat there again.
Pros: Delicious food, Reasonable price, Beautiful decor
Cons: Sort of far/confusing to get to

Special Vegan Dinner Course - Edit
I went here with my husband's family on a trip near Adventure World last February 2017. They are all non-vegetarians but they wanted to have a vegetarian dinner with me so we all went to Shiki Saisai Non which was luckily very near our hotel.
Read moreOf course my husband called first to make a reservation for five people. My husband clarified that one (me) is a strict vegetarian who also doesn't eat vegetables from the Allium family.
Dinner came and they were so nice and warm and served me a strict vegan monk food. I think the cook is/was a monk and a cook at my favorite temple in Koyasan.
The whole dinner course had simple taste but very delicious and satisfying. We ate a lot but it didn't feel heavy at all. It was a wonderful experience for me for it gave me some ideas on how to cook some vegetables too.
I'd love to come back here if I get a chance to go to Shirahama again.
