Hidamari Cafe

Choose the soy-based “mock fried chicken” as your main, then pair it with sides such as aubergine simmered with ginger and grated yam with natto. Lunch at Hidamari Cafe lets you mix and match dishes to create a set meal to suit your taste. One diner who chose the mock fried chicken enjoyed its chicken-like texture, saying it was hard to believe it was made from soy, and also liked topping the brown rice with grated yam. Other diners have praised the rice’s chewy texture and said it went well with a boldly seasoned fish dish.

The lunch set comes with a choice of main and 2 or 3 daily side dishes, served with brown rice, miso soup, pickles and healthy tea. If you are unsure what to choose, the soup-and-three-sides set is another option, with no fried dishes. There are combinations for those who want to focus on vegetable sides, as well as for diners who would prefer fish or soy-based mock meat as their main.

For dessert, try the daily homemade pound cake, made without eggs or dairy products. There is also a wide selection of teas and other drinks, including healthy teas and herbal teas.
