Vegan Ramen UZU Tokyo (inside teamLab Planets)

Delicious ramen with gluten free noodles available, but boiled in the same water as gluten-containing noodles, so not the most celiac safe. After a wonderful afternoon at team labs, where this restaurant is located, I opted to take the risk and get the ramen anyway. I have to say, it was very tasty with peanut-flavoured broth that adds the flavour and weight that can be hard to achieve without meat! The vegetables were grilled, which added even more flavour complexity. For dessert, we went for the matcha coconut ice cream and strawberry sorbet. If you’re only going to get one flavour, I’d recommend the matcha coconut as it was thickened nicely by the coconut milk. Overall, an excellent place to check out if you’re not strict with your celiac disease or are gluten intolerant.

The main store is a vegan ramen restaurant listed in the Michelin Bib Gourmand. At this store attached to teamLab Planets, you can basically eat and drink at an outdoor table. There is a reception desk for eating and drinking in the indoor experience space at the shop on the right side of the building. For indoor dining, it is necessary to order a special set menu, which is essentially an additional fee system. The soy sauce and miso ramen I received had a strong flavor that defied the image of being a vegan. There was also a drink menu including gluten-free ice cream, donuts, and beer.
