Today i went to the 100% vegan cafe and wine bar, 'Vegetarian Beast' in Mejiro. VB is quite famous among the vegan community for its beastly and yummy vegan burgers which are surprisingly more rare in Tokyo that i originally thought! Click below to find out how it went (; The cafe is similar to a canteen-style cafe where they sell salad-bar style pastas and sides as well as burger patties and curries. As it turns out they also operate as a popular vegan wine bar in the evening which is something i have to check out some day soon! Today I really wanted to try a burger but the nearly unbearable summer heat made me opt for Taco-Rice instead for a more summer-friendly meal (': I am a huge fan of taco rice and therefore i like to think of myself as some kind of taco rice expert (qualification pending) so needless to say i had high expectations when ordering. The taco rice was absolutely delicious and sooo tomato-y and came with a vegan cheesey sauce which was also so refreshing and yummy. I may go so far to say that its one of the best taco-rice recipes i've ever eaten but also it was more similar to an Italian style sauce than anything so it wasn't spicy but still very delicious. For dessert we ordered banana bread and strawberry ice cream and both were so delicious. The ice cream was so creamy and had real strawberry bits inside so i felt quite healthy as i gulped the whole thing down (': The banana bread was a huge surprise for me because its the first time i've seen or even tried banana bread in Japan and i hadn't tried it since my grandmother made me two banana bread-cakes before i left for Japan (no matter what my grans banana bread beats all banana bread). It was so light and more similar to a cake in consistency but was extremely tasty and has become one of the many reasons that i want to find an apartment with a real oven in Japan- so i can make my own yummy banana cakes!

I hope you all enjoy the last day of golden week and this gorgous weather. See you soon! (: Atmosphere *** Food **** Value for money **** Contact Vegetarian Beast
