Restaurants in Tokyo
We had some really good food at:
Good Honest Grub - we went to the branch in Harajuku. Their veggie burger was the best. There wasn't a pattie in it, just grilled veg. You get to pick 2 toppings for it, I chose tofo pumpkin spread and babaganoosh. Be warned, it's very hard to not have desert, they bring over the pudding platter so you can see close up all the delicious options. I wasn't strong enough to resist the chocolate peanut butter tofu cheesecake, which was divine.
Kabul Shokudou - an Afghan restaurant in Ochanomizu. The dishes were good, lots of veggie choice and great breads. I'd not eaten at an Afghan place before, the food was somewhere between Lebanese and Indian food but closer to Lebanese I'd say.
Naka Naka - in Shinjuku. It's an izakaya, which means it's somewhere in between a pub and a restaurant. This one was quite fancy in it's decor - it had a forest like feel, lots of wood, carvings of flower and hanging lanterns and each table was in it's own little area. The food was good quality, modern Japanese style and beautifully presented - of course. The waiter very kindly pointed out all the veggie choices. We ended up with some unusual stuff but that's part of the fun of eating out. Sandy and I drank cocktails, Joules kept to the beer, though one time he made a shandy gaff, I mean he ordered one - it's beer and ginger beer, a good combo.
