OMYU Shojin
100% vegan €€
A 100% vegan Japanese micro-spot in San Telmo run by one woman who makes everything to order, the Thai gyozas have regulars hooked for life, and the made-to-order cakes are worth planning your week around.
What to order
- 1 Thai gyozas
- 2 Rice bowl with vegan sweet and sour chicken
- 3 Adzuki bean-filled cookie
Insider tip
Bring your own container to skip the plastic trays, and ask about made-to-order cakes in advance, she tailors them to your preferences, so this isn't a walk-in-and-grab-a-slice situation.
The area
Boedo is traditional Buenos Aires with no concessions to trend, tango, neighbourhood bars, and places that have been doing the same thing well for decades.
