Kitao
Kitao is a small Japanese sweets shop in Nishiki Market known for its traditional soy-based snacks like soybean milkshakes with vegan toppings and dried beans. The venue features an upstairs seating area with a calming traditional interior and a small garden view, offering items such as soy-based pancakes accompanied by black bean tea and edamame. While soy-based desserts and snacks are available, some menu items include dairy and chicken dishes, so vegan options are limited and not the primary focus.
