- Great Japanese Vegan Food
We were very happy to find this vegan restaurant in Nara. We were only visiting Nara for one day to see the temples and palace and Kinatei is the only vegan restaurant in town. We walked from the temples downtown to Kinatei and it took us about 20 minutes. The food tasted great, warm and comforting. Perfect on a chilly and rainy day. It was the best Japanese style meal I had in Japan. I particularly liked that the meal came with a variety of dishes (bento style). My favorite was the mushroom soup. The owner was working and her mother was there as well. Both were very sweet and pleasant people. They were so friendly, that the owner offered to drive us to the palace so we would have enough time to see the grounds before closing.
