In Kyoto, 2004, founder Minoru Yonekawa quietly opened a ramen shop near Shimogamo Shrine—rooted in his family’s tofu traditions and a single experiment: soy milk broth.
Today, Towzen is one of Japan’s longest-running vegan ramen establishments.
Inspired by the 13th-century Buddhist tradition of shōjin ryōri, our food is crafted without animal products or alliums—offering nourishment for both body and spirit.
Each bowl reflects Yonekawa-san’s vision of “World Peace Ramen”: exceptional flavour married with compassion and cultural integrity.
We champion mindful eating by using the finest olive oil in dressings and cooking—reserving specialised frying oil solely for achieving that perfect crisp.
Each ingredient is chosen for its quality and flavour, ensuring every dish arrives as a handcrafted masterpiece.
