Earlier this year I found myself in Tokyo, one of the most exciting cities on the planet for vegan food. I already had high expectations, but one little cafe in the Shinjuku area managed to deliver an experience that I’ll never forget.
Read more below.
Marbre Vegan is a super cute cafe that deserves a place on the itinerary of anyone visiting the Japanese capital. I stopped by for something to eat and ended up having one of my favourite food experiences ever.
I genuinely don’t think I’ve experienced anything quite like the cakes. They were beautiful to look at and tasted every bit as good as they looked. Thick cream and fresh fruit. And the banana dessert was superb, as was the sandwich. Everything tasted incredibly fresh and the flavours were fantastic.
Tokyo is one of my favourite vegan destinations in the world. The city has so many delicious dining opportunities including fully vegan ramen bars, bakeries, and even a bunch of plant-based options inside Tokyo Disneyland.
But Marbre was a highlight. This cafe will be my number one choice when I get back to Tokyo.
