Shojin Sougo: Modern Shojin-Ryori Kaiseki in Roppongi
Shojin Sougo is a Roppongi restaurant that presents shojin ryori -- the plant-based cuisine traditionally eaten in Japanese Buddhist temples -- in a modern, kaiseki-style tasting-menu format. The restaurant's own listings note that a fully vegan version of the course can be arranged with advance reservation (commonly cited as at least two days ahead), which suggests the standard course may not always be prepared without any animal-derived ingredients unless that request is made in advance. Shojin ryori itself is traditionally built around tofu, seasonal vegetables, and plant-based broths rather than meat or fish, making it a historically rooted reference point for vegetarian dining in Japan, distinct from Western vegan cuisine. Travelers who need a confirmed fully vegan meal should request it explicitly when booking rather than assuming the standard menu qualifies.
