What a beautiful post. I loved experiencing this myself. We went to Kyoto for sakura two years ago and we tried the yudofu. So simple, yet so delicious. I now recommend that everyone going to Japan try it! I miss Japan – I just saw on the news yesterday that sakura arrived 5 days earlier than expected this year!

As a vegetarian, this is the best thing ever. I was really worried that I wouldn’t be able to find anything to eat there. Phew! Even the restaurants in Atlanta sometimes don’t have vegetarian options. +1 to Grandma from the future 🙂

Hi Jasmin – I’m so glad to hear! Ha, glad your partner liked it too – tofu in Japan is SO different than anything else! Glad you had a nice time in Kyoto…

Hi ! We’re visiting Kyoto and while searching for a tofu restaurant to go to. I came across your blog, so we went to Okutan. Their food is absolutely amazing – I’ve never had such silky tofu – the entire meal was just perfect. My partner isn’t a huge fan of tofu so I had to drag him there but by the time we were done eating, he was ready for seconds. Thanks for the recommendation!!

I was in Japan almost 2 years ago, and the foods were such an integral part of my experience there. I absolutely loved the ceramic pots of fresh simmering tofu for breakfast (there’s nothing like it!), but could probably live without fish in the morning! Fushimi-inari was one of my favorite experiences, and I wish had more time to walk more along the trail. Thanks for the little trip down memory lane!

Beautiful evocative pictures. I grew up in Asia, and tofu is definitely loved and respected rather than being merely seen as a substitute.

how interesting and I bet it tastes better than the packaged kind we get here.
