Shogjin Ryori (Buddhist Vegetarian Cuisine) of Mt. Shigi
Take a bite of the smooth sesame tofu. The chewy texture and rich aroma of sesame instantly make you sit up straight. At Tamakura-in, a sub-temple of Chogosonshi-ji Temple on Mt. Shigi, you can enjoy Buddhist vegetarian cuisine that inherits a history dating back to the late Heian period. The menu features dishes brimming with flavor without using any meat or fish, such as handmade sesame tofu and grilled mochi lotus root. You will be amazed at how such deep flavors can be created using only the blessings of the mountains and careful preparation. When enjoyed alongside temple-specific experiences like dharma talks or sutra copying, each dish will surely touch your heart even more deeply. A luxurious moment facing seasonal ingredients in a quiet mountain setting. This is a dining experience unique to Mt. Shigi.
