I tried the curry lunch set, which was served with a generous portion of tasty curry, a choice of brown, white, or a mix of both rices, a salad, and pickled vegetables. The price was very reasonable. Although the menu is in Japanese and the staff speak limited English, I was able to easily spot the items labeled as "vegan" on the printed menu and specials boards. Additionally, the shop had clearly labeled vegan items such as creamy pasta sauce, soy meats, and daily muffins.

I also couldn't resist getting the same pound cake to go. Overall, a great dining experience.
