This 1848-founded tea house teams up with Shizuoka's Nanaya to serve matcha gelato in seven escalating intensities, climaxing in a near-black No. 7 so concentrated it tastes like eating pure tea leaves.
Plant-based gluten-free Mont Blanc & rice-flour gelato
A French-style Daikanyama patisserie where every cake, doughnut and scoop of gelato is fully vegan and gluten-free, built on rice flour and plant milk.
Halal-meat burgers and matcha sweets
A cafe a 2-minute walk from Kaminarimon serving food without pork or alcohol, using halal meat alongside vegan and vegetarian dishes. Muslim-friendly / pork- and alcohol-free, not third-party halal-certified.
Pork-free wagyu beef ramen (broth from 20+ wagyu cuts & seasonings)
A halal-CERTIFIED ramen shop (no pork) about 7 minutes from Asakusa Station, building its broth from over 20 varieties of wagyu beef and seasonings, with a dedicated prayer room. Sister concept to Gyumon's Shibuya wagyu yakiniku.
Multi-course vegan tasting menu
A small, reservation-only vegan restaurant in Asakusa serving a chef's 10–14 course tasting menu. It seats only a handful of guests and opens a limited number of days per week, so reserve ahead.

Seasonal fruit parfait with homemade fruit ice cream
