New Vegan & Vegetarian course menu inspired by Zen monks food
We are proudly introducing the seasonal vegan, vegetarian course menu deliciously prepared for you.
Kazu, our head chef started his career as a chef in the traditional Japanese restaurant in Fukuoka about 25 years ago.
There he has learned the ancient Shojin Kaiseki that had been eaten by Zen monks.
Inspiration from that experience appears on all the dishes in the menu.
Please enjoy these healthy special dishes.
Booking essential one day before. Please add the text "shojin 5 course" as a remark when booking.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
