Nara, Japan｜ヘルシーごはん＆カフェ遊

Oishii desu! Thank you for the food, it was the best we had after a week in Japan. Very happy to chance upon this home-based restaurant that serves a healthy meal during our day trip to Nara. The set lunch comes with a smoothie, 5 small dishes served at 5 mins interval, a main dish of your choice, rice and soup. I ordered teriyaki chicken and it was definitely the right choice. The owners were very friendly even though we know very little Japanese and had a hard time understanding what they were saying. But not to worry, they do have a English menu so I will recommend tourists to visit this place too!

This was the best Japanese food we’ve eaten in our two weeks of traveling so far. Stay away from all the touristy streets and come here to enjoy a high-quality, home cooked meal made with so much love which is also affordable.

We found this cute little place on our trip to Nara by coincidence and were so glad we stumbled inside! The owner went out of her way to create a fully vegan Obanzi for me when it wasn’t on the menu. I had a beautiful miso glazed eggplant as a main. All the dishes were fresh, healthy and flavoursome. Would definitely reccomend!
