This was such an amazing experience for my family. My husband and I took our kids and it was so much fun. Sakura gave us a brief overview of Japan culture and the significance of mochi and then we got to make several different kinds. It was a unique and memorable experience. Highly recommend!

Quick summary - it’s a wonderful experience and you won’t regret it! 10/10 and S+ tier If you’re a fan of Shizuka’s videos, you’ll definitely love the Harajuku tour that she’s arranged. If you’re not (yet) a fan, this is a tour that you should choose. Either way, you should bring an extra pair of socks because the tour will knock the first pair off. Jk😉 Shizuka’s entertaining, engaging, and energetic personality really stood out as she led my wife and I and another couple through parts of Harajuku along the famous Takeshita street. It’s not just a foodie tour but she gives history and cultural insights about the area and street during the (too short) four-hour tour. We had so much fun as a group eating, drinking, walking, and talking. Shizuka effortlessly led an interactive tour as she guided our group. She made sure that everyone had opportunities to engage in the activities like cooking okonomiyaki and selecting gatchapon, which made the tour much more interesting than just being led around listening to a taped or scripted tour. Shizuka shared her knowledge and experiences in Japan and gave recommendations about other foods, areas, and activities based on people’s interests and questions. We enjoy her videos on YT and her tour definitely did not disappoint. We really enjoyed the experience and would definitely recommend it to everyone. Time really flew because we had so much fun. We will definitely look for more tours with byFood and Shizuka on future trips to Japan.

After watching countless byFood videos on YouTube, we decided to book the tour with Shizuka — and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. The tour offered the perfect blend of fascinating information about Harajuku, fun activities, and a wonderful variety of delicious foods. Shizuka’s open, cheerful, and irresistibly positive personality made the entire experience unforgettable, and the time just flew by. For anyone who has the chance to join Shizuka on this tour, it’s an absolute must-do — it will definitely be the highlight of your Tokyo trip. Thank you so much for the amazing tour, Shizuka!

I was always interested with doing some sort of tour in Japan but could never figure out which one to go on. The moment I found out Shizuka was hosting the Harajuku tour I immediately knew that if there was any Japan tour for me to go on that this would definitely be the one. That instinct did not steer me wrong because this was absolutely one of the most memorable moments of all my trips to Japan! Shizuka is just as kind, bubbly and endearing in all of the videos she is in, maybe even more so! I have to admit that I was nervous meeting her but her genuine personality makes everyone feel so comfortable to the point where it feels like we’ve known her forever. She is also amazing with children. There were two in our group and she engaged with them in the most cool auntie way! Shizuka really made this tour so much fun and very informative with her knowledge of Japan history. She is just so much fun to be around and If she’s still doing tours by the next time I plan a trip back to Japan you can definitely count me in! I really had thee most amazing time. This will be a memory I will cherish and hold dear in my heart forever. Arigato gozaimashita Shizuka!!

Tokyo's vegetarian mochi food experiences offer a delectable way to explore the city's unique dining scene, blending classic Japanese flavors with contemporary plant-based cooking.

Explore Authentic Mochi Varieties

Mochi is a versatile treat made from glutinous rice, molded into various shapes, sizes, and flavors. In Tokyo, this traditional snack becomes a canvas for creativity, offering both authentic and modern vegetarian twists. Whether you’re indulging in warabi mochi, made from bracken starch with a jelly-like consistency, or savoring daifuku – mochi stuffed with sweet red bean paste – there’s something to satisfy every palate. Vegetarian adaptations include mochi filled with fresh fruits, sweet potato, or matcha, providing a refreshing bite and a burst of flavor that complements the soft, chewy texture of the mochi cake.

Immersive Dining in Tokyo's Mochi Hotspots

Tokyo’s food scene is famed for its dedication to quality and culinary innovation, and the vegetarian mochi offerings are no exception. You can find these delicate treats in a variety of settings, from quaint street stalls to upscale eateries, each providing a unique experience. Enjoy mochi as part of a larger vegetarian tasting menu, or as a standalone treat paired with a calming matcha tea ceremony. These experiences allow you to fully immerse yourself in Japan's storied tea and dessert culture while enjoying plant-based ingredients. By participating in these mochi-centric dining experiences, you’re not only treating your taste buds but also embracing Japan’s rich history and culture.
