"Eating at Shojin was the first time I'd had Japanese food, because there were never vegan Japanese restaurants in England when I was growing up. I'd had Chinese before and I had Indochinese, which is really popular in London, but never Japanese food. Shojin has flavors and textures I’d not had before. They do really good sushi there. I really enjoy their vegan spicy tuna and crispy rice, which I think is made from tofu, but they flavor it really well. The pumpkin croquette as well—it's really sweet, but also spicy at the same time inside." - brennan carley
