- Traditional taste, modern options.
Don't come here for sushi, try REAL food in the vegan à la carte menu instead. The humble and family-style atmosphere at the club works well for the venue's main courses, which can easily serve two, and usually come with a side of rice, kimchi/pickles, and some korokkee or misoshiro. All these factors bring customers closer to a Japanese tendency toward variety in one sitting and spice minimalism per dish. Japanese cuisine offers excellent vegan options that Chef Alice Yamanishi took the time to adapt to Brazilian preferences or availability. The vegan curry, for example, has grilled vegetables rather than vegetables cooked together with the broth - same taste, with enhanced texture and additional flavors (including the smoked eryngii and aspargus). Similarly, the yasai itame has less broth than usual and more fiber, which can cater to customers used to a daily meat "crunch", whether before going vegan or just as regular omnivores. Lastly, the buckwheat yakisoba may work better for those with some level of gluten intolerance, so it even brings the vegan menu to those who don't usually choose that option.
