Is it possible for a vegetarian to find good food in Japan?

Question:


Vegetarian means a vegan who consumes milk and milk products, but NO egg, meat poultryor any form of a dead animal.

Answer:


That's a lacto-vegetarian. There's a ovo-vegetarian, they eat EGGS but not milk products. Your definition is wrong.

ANYWAY.

Yes there are many vegetarian food here. There are tofu-based meals (tofu as replacement to meats), Miso soup, noodles (vegetable noodles), vegetable tempuras, Onigiri (rice balls) and many more.
You just have to find restaurants that specialize in vegetarian meals.

Here's a website where you can find restaurants in cities in Japan that serve vegetarian food.
