Nishiki Soya
Nishiki Soya is a tofu specialty spot near the west entrance of Nishiki Market, serving tofu-centric set lunches featuring dishes like tofu hamburger steak and soy milk hotpot. While the setting is casual with a focus on seasonal tofu preparations, recent reports note some non-vegetarian ingredients in certain dishes despite menu labeling. Prices are reasonable, with soy milk drinks around ¥250, and the venue is primarily geared toward lunchtime visitors exploring the market.
