An increasing number of people are placing restrictions on what they eat due to health concerns, religious beliefs, or beliefs. A barrier-free restaurant is a restaurant that proposes a delicious way to enjoy food, rather than treating food preferences as a barrier. Food is a reflection of the current times, such as the diversification of lifestyles and globalization. We picked three stores each from four categories: organic, halal food, low sugar & low calorie, and vegetarian. We will introduce barrier-free restaurants in Tokyo.

``Eitabrish'' is located one alley away from Aoyama Dori. It's a stylish restaurant with plenty of greenery and plenty of natural light. It's no wonder that it's run by a design company. The reason for opening the restaurant was that one of the owners, Reiko Seino, became vegan about 20 years ago. At that time, no matter what restaurant menu you looked at, when it came to vegetables, most of them were salads or side dishes. People who want to eat vegetables don't have much choice when eating out. By the fall of that year, she had opened Japan's first vegan cafe. ``Atabrish'' is an evolution of that cafe.

When opening the store, they decided not only to pursue veganism, but also to avoid using any refined white sugar or chemical seasonings, and to use organic and pesticide-free vegetables and rice as much as possible. Of course, the wine is either organic or vin nature, and the sake is pure rice sake that the makers know well, all with clear traceability. They are so thorough that they check the seasonings all the way to the factory line before choosing them.

There is also a la carte, but we recommend the monthly 5,000 yen course. The five-course meal begins with starters such as potage, natural yeast bread, and ceviche, followed by salad, pasta, main dish, and dessert. The dishes are creatively prepared to bring out the best flavors of the ingredients, and are so filling and flavorful that you might not realize at first glance that they are vegan. It seems that many people change their mind about veganism after eating this course.

The chef, who has been working with vegans for many years, is particular about not becoming a "vegan = bland health food." We use plenty of herbs, and in this menu, we add variety by combining other ingredients with grilled mushrooms that have different textures. Utilizing the inherent power of ingredients, we create dishes that delight both the eyes and the palate. He says that while being health conscious is important, he also wants the general public to think that the food is delicious.

As they aim to create a place where everyone can sit around the same table, regardless of their nationality, religion, or food culture, there are many days when more than half of the guests at dinner time are from overseas. This is a restaurant/café that will satisfy everyone, including those who are strictly vegan, those who are highly sensitive to health, and those who are relaxed and healthy-minded.
