Our experience was fantastic! Bruce and Tomoko were exceptional. This is a must do when in Fukuoka. We wanted to experience the Yatai stalls but felt a little intimidated doing them by ourselves so we booked the tour and we’re so glad we did! We highly recommend to book this to get the real local experience. We made two new friends who helped us enjoy delicious food and were delightful company! 10 out 10. It was an unforgettable evening and an extra-special birthday for my wife.

Bruce is a master host. Not only did he take us to amazing yatais (we're still dreaming about ramen and mochi-wrapped bacon), he provided just the right mix of information, entertainment, and good old-fashioned conversation throughout the evening. Also, his longstanding relationships with the yatai operators were evident - and heartwarming to see. Touring with Bruce was definitely a highlight of our trip!

Bruce and Ling were great, knowledgeable guides! We booked the izakaya and ramen tour and they showed us some great hidden spots we never would have thought to visit, and the food was excellent. Recommend booking a tour at the start of your stay in Fukuoka so they can provide other recommendations for restaurants and sites to visit.

We thoroughly enjoyed our Tsukiji Outer Market tour with our guide Kanako. Her perspective as a local was very interesting as to how she and her family prepare and eat the food we were seeing. She knows the market and it's history well, and gave us a wonderful sampling of foods including fish cakes, sushi, wagu skewers, nuts, tea and sake. It was a complete 3hr tour. Well worth the time and money. Highly recommend.

Experience the Best Vegetarian Dashi Food Tours

If you're a vegetarian foodie traveling through Japan, you might wonder how you can enjoy the traditional flavors of Japanese cuisine. Our vegetarian dashi food tours are the perfect answer, allowing you to indulge in authentic tastes without compromising your dietary preferences. Dashi, a flavorful broth that's fundamental to Japanese cooking, is typically made from fish. However, these tours exclusively feature vegetarian dashi, crafted using alternatives like kombu (seaweed) and shiitake mushrooms—ensuring that you savor the umami-rich essence of dashi without animal products. Whether you're exploring bustling metropolitan streets or tranquil countryside paths, these tours will introduce you to exclusive vegetarian delights.

Discover Unique Vegetarian Dishes on Every Tour

The culinary journey offered by our vegetarian dashi food tours isn't just about tasty meals—it's about discovering an array of dishes that utilize the art of vegetarian Japanese cooking. You'll have the opportunity to taste items like chilled noodles with a savory dashi dipping sauce or tempura made from seasonal vegetables, dipped in a vegetarian dashi broth. You might also enjoy an authentic tasting session where experts guide you through the subtle differences of various dashi types. These tours don't just stop at sampling food in restaurants; they're often accompanied by demonstrations or lessons from expert chefs, who share insights into crafting delicious vegetarian dashi and incorporating it into a balanced diet. This hands-on experience ensures you go beyond just eating, learning how to recreate these dishes at home.

Explore Japanese Culture through Food

Our vegetarian dashi food tours do more than tantalize your taste buds—they immerse you in the captivating culture of Japan. Each destination offers a glimpse into the culinary history that shaped these unique vegetarian offerings. Guided by knowledgeable locals, you'll visit markets brimming with fresh produce, see artisans at work crafting soy sauce or miso, and gain deeper insight into the staple ingredients of Japanese vegetarian cuisine. The tours often include a peek into Zen Buddhist cooking, known as Shojin Ryori; this cuisine holds a deeply meditative culinary art that has influenced Japanese vegetarian approaches for centuries. As you explore, you'll not only taste but also understand the historical and cultural significance of dashi and its vegetarian adaptations.
