Indulging in Japanese vegan specialties
For those craving Japanese cuisine without animal products, Mori Café offers a vegan twist on traditional dishes like yakitori, beef ramen, and sushi. Located in the heart of the 11th arrondissement, this cozy restaurant quickly fills up, so be prepared to wait for a table. Once inside, guests dining on the tatami floor enjoy a truly Japanese experience, complete with an open kitchen. On the menu, you’ll find classic Japanese curry, ramen, and the highly recommended Teriyaki don featuring grilled plant-based meat. Be sure to try the winter Nabe, a Japanese hot pot, and wash it down with a matcha Kirin beer or a sake-infused Moscow Mule. Save room for sesame flan or delectable mochi desserts to end your vegan Japanese feast.

Mori Café at 2 rue des Taillandiers, Paris 11th. Open on Fridays and Saturdays from 12 pm to 9 pm. Closed on Sundays.
