Situated just inside the main gate to Daishoin Temple (Instagram famous for its Buddhist statues wearing colorful knit hats made by regular temple-goers), this lovely hexagonal tea house is the perfect place for vegan visitors to take a break after exploring the expansive temple grounds or climbing down from Mt. Misen.
Owner-chef Okita-san has been keen to provide her customers with vegan options since she took over the cafe, and her beautifully presented vegan curry made with chickpeas, soy meat, nuts, vegetables, and spices has proved very popular. A new addition is an equally delicious soy milk-based vegan ramen dish topped with locally sourced maitake mushrooms.
Hexagon is also a registered My Mizu refill station, and anyone is welcome to pop in and refill their water bottles to help cut down on the wasteful use of disposable PET bottles.
