Daigo
Being originally located in the grounds of Seishoji Temple is why Daigo began serving shojin ryori. What Nomura inherits as the restaurant’s fourth-generation owner is shojin ryori for gracious service. Note that dried bonito flakes are used in the broth, so the meals are not completely vegetarian. The nutrition and flavour of the vegetables and the sukiya architecture put the mind at ease. Relax and enjoy this moment of tranquillity.
"‘Shojin-ryori’ is a culinary tradition based on the Buddhist precept of wasting nothing. This diet of vegetables and grains is good not only for your health but also for the environment, honouring natural digestive processes and giving thanks for the bounty of each season. Shojin-ryori teaches appreciation for the important things in life, the things we must never forget."
