Reinterpreting Edomae-style sushi
through a plant-based lens.
Keeping the form of nigiri intact, substituting only what lies within.
Unpacking traditional techniques with plants,
Stripping away animal products, gluten, and five pungent roots entirely.
A single counter where every lifestyle shares the same taste.
Those with vegan or diverse dietary backgrounds may not always be seeking a mere “animal product copy.”
Even so, we deliberately craft it to look just like the real thing.
This is the very essence of mitate—the traditional technique cultivated through Buddhist vegetarian cuisine (shojin ryori) and Edomae sushi.
While shaping textures and forms closely to the original, we rely solely on plants and wisdom rooted in Japan.
The surprise of “Wait, this is…?” serves as a common language, allowing everyone to enjoy the same meal across dietary boundaries.
More than a simple substitute, it is an “authentic imitation” born from Japanese craftsmanship and playfulness.
This is a single plate from Sushi Babylon, crafted for you to enjoy this very contradiction and ‘kodawari’ — dedication.
