IKEA Japan Sustainable Food Fair 2021

Plant-based eats at Ikea stores across the country

Venue
IKEA stores nationwide
When
May 20th - Jul 11th 2021

From May 20th (Thursday) to July 11th (Sunday), IKEA stores across the country will be hosting a Sustainable Food Fair, which focuses on plant-based takes on some global foodie favorites. There will be items on offer including plant-based gapao rice (¥ 899), a meat-free "beef" curry (¥ 799), veggie dogs (¥ 250), and even a mango oat milk panna cotta (¥ 299) for the sweet-toothed visitors.

Along with being highly nutritious, plant-based foods are seen as an integral part of a sustainable future - they require less resources to produce than their meat-based counterparts, and assist with global concerns like reducing carbon emissions.

Do note that IKEA Harajuku and IKEA Shibuya will only have limited plant-based offerings, and the menu won't be available at the Shinjuku store.

Getting there

IKEA has a number of store locations across Japan, including the Tohoku, Kanto, Chubu, Kansai, and Kyushu regions. To find the location closest to you, please visit the official IKEA website here.

Is this takeout food? Even if it's dine-in, I'd visit. Ikea's store design and space management lends itself well to social distancing and avoiding the "3 Cs".

In store for this, but I'd love to see them add some more plant-based choices for their takeout/frozen options. Hopefully in the future!

No Swedish meatballs? Sorry, not interested ;-)

I don't think IKEA will ever get rid of those, so you're probably safe 😉

Thank you for your support!
