 📍 𝐂𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐫𝐚𝐥  
𝐊𝐲𝐨𝐭𝐨 𝐉𝐨𝐞 @kyotojoelkf   

The last time I went for a Japanese buffet was back in Amsterdam in 2016, probably few months before I became vegetarian. Visiting this place brought me back some good old memories when I was desperately looking for some comfort food to cure my homesickness.   Not exactly a big fan of Japanese cuisine but sushi has been my favourite food for a long time. That’s why I was so psyched when I first knew that Kyoto Joe has an vegetarian all-you-can-eat dinner exclusive on Mon-Wed nights.

Great deal considering that there are more than 20 kinds of dishes, from appetisers to maki rolls to robata skewers and more hot dishes. They serve in sequence and you can order more of any you like, here are some highlights of the night. ✨

 Great start to the night! The mixed vegetable tempura were crunchy and so yum on a lettuce.  
🤤 4.5/5

 A platter of 6 different maki rolls! My favourites out of all were 𝗬𝗮𝗺 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹 (loved the aroma from shiso leaf and plum 🌸) and 𝗠𝗮𝗹𝗮 𝗥𝗼𝗹𝗹 (avocado and mixed tempura). The rest were all very nice, creative combinations and fun flavours!  
🤤 4/5

 More Sino-Indian than Japanese because of the thick batter and the sriracha sauce.

Not the slightly sweet Japanese Gyoza I was expecting.

 I love rice so had to order a small bowl although we were already very full. Nothing special.  
🤤 3/5 

🌱 Vegetarian friendly: So rare to find vegetarian all-you-and-eat in a non-vegetarian restaurant! The whole table has to order same menu so make sure your friends are on board. 
👹 Lively atmosphere, great view and friendly service. 
💰 HK$450-550 pp  
⭐️ Overall rating: 3.5/5 
🤔 Revisit? Maybe, probably not this dinner set because it’s just too much much food.
