About
Komaki Shokudo Kamakura Fushikian is a fully vegan restaurant serving shojin ryori, the traditional Buddhist cuisine of Japanese temples, in a relaxed cafeteria style setting. It's been open since 2013, tucked inside CHABARA, a specialty food marketplace underneath the train tracks near Akihabara Station. The chef trained in the Rinzai school at Kenchoji Temple in Kamakura, and the kitchen follows strict Buddhist dietary principles: no animal products, no white sugar, and no five pungent roots (garlic, leeks, onion, chives, scallion). This also makes it suitable for oriental vegans and those following a Jain diet (though mushrooms are used). Meals are served teishoku style, with a main dish, seasonal side dishes, rice, miso soup, and pickles.
