Brown Rice Cafe

April 7, 2015


We injure upwards spending Tuesday afternoon too eve wandering some Harajuku buying plastic toys too other ridiculousness (Kiddy Land toy store is a must-visit if you lot desire to charge upwards on Gudetama-related goodies). The pelting kept coming down, important nosotros simply wanted somewhere nearby for dinner - luckily Brown Rice Cafe was correct some the corner.

Brown Rice is attached to British organic cosmetics store Neal's Yard, too is tucked downwards a niggling laneway simply to the North of Omotesando station. Like seemingly everywhere inward Tokyo, it's much easier to detect if you lot bring a detailed map/functioning mobile phone. The layout is sleek too spare - wooden floorboards too tables elegantly arranged, amongst some squeamish botanical prints on the walls. There are English linguistic communication menus - vego restaurants inward Tokyo look to live good aware that a big chunk of their marketplace is foreigners. The nutrient is macrobiotic, too heavy on the veggies - you lot tin savor a terrine made of 10 kinds of vegetables (1200円 $13) or a mix of veggies cooked using the 5 principles of Japanese cooking (1300円 $14.10). There are intriguing sounding tofu tasting plates (800円 $8.70), salads too a make of other small-scale plates.

I'm non certain if it's measure or not, but this cute niggling foursquare of sesame tofu too crackers came out amongst our drinks (beer for me too a 700円 $7.50 tangerine juice for Cindy) - the tofu was smoothen too the sesame flavour worked good amongst the lite sauce it was served with.


We took the slow alternative too ordered the chocolate-brown rice dinner laid - chocolate-brown rice, miso soup, some sides too a selection of master copy for 1700円 ( $18.40) The options on our see were steamed vegetables, Okinawa-style tofu cutlets or miso dengaku - nosotros chose the cutlets too the dengaku too shared them.


The miso dengaku was a serve of lightly grilled tofu amongst a potent miso sauce splotched on top, served amongst an impressive array of pickled vegetables too greens. It was all pretty simple, but I actually enjoyed it - the seasoning on the chocolate-brown rice was a surprising highlight. The Okinawa-style tofu reminded me of crumbed fish every bit much every bit anything, correct downwards to the sweetness mayo too lemon juice.

We managed to larn out simply plenty room to crush inward a shared dessert - the tofu lemon cake amongst berry coulis (750円 $8).


This was a corporation rendition of the vegan cheesecake format - they clearly know their agency some tofu.

We had a lovely dinner at Brown Rice. The atmosphere is a peaceful escape from the madness of Harajuku too Omotesando too the nutrient is artfully prepared. You're in all probability best off ignoring the slightly mystical claims inward the menu, but the mix of tofu, pickled too fresh veggies, miso soup too chocolate-brown rice did experience similar a salubrious agency to complete the day.
