Caminando por las diferentes interpretaciones de la yuba - Edit
Nikkō es una ciudad japonesa muy bonita. De un paseo puedes disfrutar de un conjunto de santuarios, templos y paisajes preciosos patrimonio de la UNESCO aunque también es conocida gastronómicamente por la yuba, un alimento elaborado con la piel que se forma de la leche de soja cuando se calienta. Sun Field es uno de esos restaurantes especializados en este manjar culinario que tanto se trabaja de la prefectura de Tochigi.
Read moreDe forma casual entré en el restaurante y mi sorpresa fue ver que el (único) menú que se ofrecía contenía opciones veganas y además estaba perfectamente señalizado, cosa que agradecí. El «Yuba Set» que te proponen tiene doce platos (algunos son más bien tapas) donde los preparados de la yuba son el rey: ya sea frita, cruda, fermentada, con salsas, aromatizada con hierbas o marinada. Dicho esto, además se acompaña de verduras, sopa de miso, arroz y como no podría ser de otra manera, con tofu de buena calidad. Una carta bastante acotada con alguna opción que no es puramente vegetal a la cual no se ofrece sustituto, cosa que no impide, en ningún momento, disfrutar de esta comida local acompañada de un buen té de la casa.
Si estás de excursión por la zona, y tienes curiosidad por probar uno de los tantos platos que se cocinan en Japón con la soja, esta es una buena manera de acercarte a la yuba en todas sus facetas.

Pros: Probar diferentes platos cocinados con yuba, Buena atención y personal amable
Cons: No todos los platos son veganos, Menú único sin variaciones

Yummy Yuba - Edit
An assortment of different Yuba preparations. They will “veganise” the set by making some small modifications. Everything is clearly labelled.

Yuba set meal that can be veganized - Edit
Set menu for 2200 yen, which seemed a bit much for the amount served. Really, you can just walk 10 more minutes to the Lion D'Or grocery store near the train stations and pick up a variety of differently-prepared yubas and have a very similar experience for a significantly less. A couple items on the regular set menu have dashi and/or gelatin, so can be left off for vegans and vegetarians (though without being replaced by something else 😞). Yuba is a Nikko speciality, so worth trying here if yuba isn't something you can get where you come from - though there wasn't much of a variety in the taste or texture profile of most of the items served.

Very tasty Yuba set - Edit
Its possible to veganize the set (water/soy sauce instead of the Dashi), one item is made with gelatin (this is the only item they can't replace)

Great for tofu lovers - Edit
You write your name on a sheet and wait for your party to be called. Hot tea is served when you're sitted.
Read moreI showed one of the staff members the message I usually show* and she was very eager to explain that out of the 12 dishes in the set, two would be adapted (water instead of dashi) and one would not be served (coffee dessert containing "jelly"). This info is also included on the English menu with a clearly labeled picture of each dish.
If you're a fan of tofu, this is a nice place to try different variations of it, from bland to sweet to savory. It was the largest serving of tofu I've had so far in Japan (if protein is something you pay attention to) - two of us weren't even able to finish it.
Set is the same for everyone (priced at ¥2200) so the service is fast. They also offer drinks and desserts, but I did not ask which were vegan.

Pros: Staff eagerly welcomes vegans, you get to try different tofu variations, portion size was quite filling
Cons: There is only one fixed set, 1 out of 12 dishes in the set is removed, cash only
