hal okada vegan patisserie

The 15 Best Vegan Restaurants in Tokyo, Japan | Eater

"Tucked away in a little side street of snazzy Hiroo, this tiny takeout-only shop is the experimental laboratory of patissier Haruo Okada, who is the force behind the vegan desserts at cafes like Wired Bonbon and Futaba Fruits Parlor. Okada grasps the full potential of plant-based ingredients in baking, and his expertise shines through in the lineup of classic Japanese favorites: iconic strawberry shortcake, rich Mont Blanc, smooth custard pudding, impressive cheesecake, and seasonal tarts. Buy a couple slices to enjoy in nearby Arisugawa Park. Note that the shop accepts only cashless payments on-site." - Chiara Terzuolo
