A vegan gem in the heart of Waseda - Edit
Finding good vegetarian food options in Tokyo has become easier during the 7 years that I have been visiting the city, however, the ‘hidden’ meat and fish in stocks, soup and sauces are still ubiquitous. Not so with Sojo (pronounced So-yo), a new vegan café/restaurant in the heart of Waseda.
Read moreOnly 400m from Waseda subway station on a wide, pleasant boulevard, Nori-san has created a unique eatery combining his two interests: good vegan food and the language Esperanto.
In the interests of full disclosure, let me say at the outset that I visited as an Esperanto-speaker, however two of my companions were neither Esperanto speakers nor vegans and received a very warm welcome.
We enjoyed good food and friendly hospitality. Menus are trilingual: Japanese, Esperanto and English. Information abounds about veganism and Esperanto and Nori-san is happy to chat about his passions with those who are interested.
Alternatively, simply go for the well-priced and plentiful food and free wi-fi! Hopefully this vegan haven will be here for years to come.
Pros: Excellent value, Warm welcome, Free wi-fi
Cons: Ideally need to reserve ahead at present
