Kyushu Jangara is a perfect Japanese restaurant for vegans / vegetarians and meat-eaters travelling together (like us!). I had the vegan soy sauce ramen noodles, and Phil had the creamy pork tonkotsu. It's the closest vegetarian ramen I've had to regular ramen. It doesn't feel like a chain, but there are several branches in Tokyo. We went to the one in Ginza, but there are also restaurants in Harajuku, Akihabara, Ikebukuro, Akasaka, Nihombashi and a sister restaurant in Hamamutsucho. It's fairly cheap, the food's good and it's a great experience!

Their ramen tastes so good! I went the other week in Harajuku and it was the best ramen I ever had. Even better than Ichiran’s. I’d recommend Kyushu Jangara’s any day.
Aww so glad you enjoyed it! Tbh I think Ichiran is just the most famous, and not necessarily the best!!
I love Kyushu Jangara! Went to the one in Harajuku twice. Thank you for posting! - Brendan from Tigercide
Yay, it's a good find! :-) Would have filmed more inside but there was a queue of people waiting outside - it's that popular!
i think this is the same place i went to in harajuku!! it wast easily the best ramen i’ve ever had in my entire life and it was vegan. i was there by myself and i couldn’t stop saying yum out loud and moaning about how good it tasted
😝😝😝 Yes it must have been the same place, they have a branch in Harajuku too! It can be tricky when you're by yourself sometimes!! 😝
I got your hedgehog scarf for Christmas and it's so soft and cute! It's going to keep me so warm, and I asked for it to say thank you to you for making such good videos, you really helped me plan my Japan trip earlier this year
Aww thanks so much! That's much appreciated, thanks for the support, and I'm so glad you like it!
Thanks for all the videos, I've been enjoying them. I'm going to Tokyo in a couple months and am super excited. The videos are informative but also help tiding me over until I can finally go.
Thanks so much! Enjoy your Japlanning! :-)
I went to one of these places! My favourite vegan ramen was engine ramen in kyoto. So so so delicious! And the vegan gyoza omg. My husband had the meat ramen there and said it was equally as delicious. Highly highly recommend engine ramen!!!
Thanks for the rec! Sounds good. Non-meat gyoza are quite rare.
We ate at the Akihabara and Harajuku branches on a recent trip - I loved the veggie ramen, it was really tasty and satisfying. My friend enjoyed his pork ramen too. I was so grateful that they had a clearly marked veggie option when it's not traditional. I would definitely go again if I was back in Tokyo.
You have the same problem as us, being a meat-eater and a vegetarian! :-) Glad you enjoyed it too! It's nice to be able to relax, knowing it's completely meat-free :-)
Good vid Amy, looked delicious.
I'd definitely go back! :-)
thanks for the video, was considering to visit the one in akihabara, near the hotel i picked to stay :)
Definitely recommended! 😋
Great video. I will have to try ramen when I go back to Tokyo next year.
Ramen is a must-eat, for sure! :-)
Love the video and thanks for posting it Amy! I've shared it with my friends who are both Vegetarian and Vegan and would be awesome to introduce you to them when we come over at London MCM in May! :D Ian x
Thank you! I hope they find it useful if they're ever travelling to Japan! :-)
@@cakeswithfaces not a problem! They have ideas and plans to go in the future once they're financially ready to so!
It's very useful info for the tourist of vegan !
Also, I recommend "Yudofu" for the tourist of vegan in Kyoto.
Thanks for the recommendation! I'd like to try it!
@@cakeswithfaces
Thank you for comment back.
If you will go to Kyoto, please try it.
Probably, you love it.

Hi! I see you are being helpful, as always! As I have mentioned before I only eat plants and fungi, so all recommendations for food in Japan are most welcome!
今年しもよろしくお願いします！

By the way, will you forgive me if I point out that a native speaker of English would just say: "vegan tourist" rather than "tourist of vegan"?
And perhaps I might ask for some help with the Japanese language?
I found the complicated kanji: 覆 which I think can form a verb pronounced with long 'o' to mean 'to veil' or 'to cover'.
So can I use this in the plain volitional from in a phrase meaning 'let's veil the queen' which consists entirely of the sound 'jo' followed repeated 'o' sounds?
女王を覆おう
If so, can I really push my luck and address this encouragement to the sakura blossoms by saying:
女王を覆おう桜花 ?
It would make a strangely poetic way to play my Joker 🤭

Happy New Year Fred !
Thank you for comment, point and sorry for late to reply.
And, about your question.
It's little hard for me.
In basically,
覆い：noun
覆う：verb
I guess, probably your meaning is,
cover ： usual expression
veil ： romantic expression
I guess in your case,
女王を覆おう
≒ 女王を桜花で覆おう
So, I guess
let's veil the queen
≒let's veil the queen by cherry blossom petals
I'm sorry for not work to you.
If possible, please show the forward and rearward sentence of 覆う in Japanese.
こちらこそ、今年も宜しくお願いします。
2:05 それは湯葉。It's called Yuba in Japanese, aka Tofu skin in English.
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tofu_skin
Ah thank you! I've heard of it, but didn't realise that's what it was! :-)
I love it when people in the comments can help me discover new things!!
@@cakeswithfaces I want to supplement your content as (a local) Japanese guy because you are trying to deliver "accurate" information about Japan to your viewers. I thank you for your attitude to inform people about my country Japan :)
@@mPDC-gh8jy
Thank you for your helpful comments!
I'm planning to visit Japan for a month before the Olympic Games next year, so as a vegan I am grateful for any information - especially about Tokyo and as far north as possible.
I have seen yuba before in other food and tourism posts but would not have realised that was some in the dish.
今年しもよろしくお願いします！
@@mPDC-gh8jy Thank you, it's very helpful! :-)
I've learnt if there's a big queue outside a restaurant in Japan its always really good. To be honest though I normally just eat from the Konbini when I go to Japan :p
Did Phil try the vegan ramen? Just wondered how it compares.
Hope you had a good Christmas 🎄
I've heard that too, about queues! Phil didn't try the vegan ramen here, but he had the vegan tonkotsu at T's TanTan and said it was similar to pork tonkotsu, but quite not as heavy or creamy.
Hello comment section how was ur Christmas (or holiday)
Enjoying the holidays thank you!! Hope you had a good one! :-)
Merry Christmas!
Enjoy the holidays!
Japanese food is so delicious. If I was a vegan and went to Tokyo, I would really consider a small break and try a proper meat-based ramen ;)
It would certainly make life a lot easier...! Japanese food is the best - hardly had anything that's not good!
Awesome Jon Amy.
..That vegan ramen is oily but it looks tasty! 👍
It sure was!! 😝
Thanks for the video ✌️I was wondering Can you get gluten free noodles?
I'm not sure, I'm afraid - on the menu it didn't say anything about gluten free noodles, so I'd guess not, as ramen noodles usually contain gluten.
I think you can get gluten free dishes at T's TanTan (my fav!) - at least as I remember they had pretty good allergy labelling on their menu.
Deborah Pappas
If you can get soba noodles - and make sure that they are 100% buckwheat - then they are naturally gluten-free
@@jinbutsufumei Thanks for the tip!
Probably it’s a gluten base vegan meat as a substitute for ... real meat.. l purposely go to Adventist hospital eateries if I feel like one ..cheers
Well it tasted good whatever it was :-) And always good to relax knowing it's vegetarian.
