Proving that perfectly executing a simple concept is the straightest path to success, this sushi and noodle house offers strictly vegan sushi (Mon-Fri only), plus hot and cold bowls of vegan udon with sides of tempura, kimchi, edamame and more. Sticklers for authenticity and fresh ingredients, if you don't know your way around this type of Asian cuisine, they'll happily educate you, and the manager is basically a sake sommelier. But you're on your own with the chopsticks, which has always been an exercise in humility for us when it comes to udon. Messy shirt-fronts aside, Ka Udon's close proximity to the bus station makes it a trendy lunch bar - the effect enhanced by the long bar where customers slurp and stab their meals across from the chefs and servers, giving the whole place a busy atmosphere. From the same team as Karma, in addition to sake and exceptional coffee, they also make their own kombucha in multiple flavours, brew their own beer, and offer natural wines and matcha.
