A neon, sci-fi bar in Shinjuku 3-chome whose menu is currently 100% plant-based — junk-style vegan burgers from blended soy meat, plant cheese and mushroom 'meat' sauce, made without egg, dairy, honey or the five pungent roots. Theatrical and tourist-friendly rather than health-focused.

A small all-vegan patisserie-cafe a minute from Shinjuku-Gyoenmae specialising in plant-based cakes — many gluten-free and lower-sugar — using naturally-cultivated fruit. Every item is free of egg, dairy and honey.
