Tomato & shiso
Green plum olives
Braised root vegetables
Roasted zucchini with miso
Premium Japanese rice
Add-on desserts are also available, including housemade popsicles and hojicha banana bread.

“Mæst Food offers one of the most thoughtful plant-based dining experiences in Vancouver — seasonal, creative and deeply considered.”
— Alicia, Vancouver
“Tomoko’s cooking is incredibly innovative and beautifully executed. Every detail feels intentional, creating an intimate and memorable experience.”
— Jace, Vancouver

“Thoughtful, inventive and unlike anything else plant-based events in Vancouver. Every Mæst dinner feels intimate, memorable and beautifully executed.”
— Erin, Vancouver
“I first discovered Tomoko’s cooking at Harken Coffee, where her thoughtful, deeply satisfying food was as memorable as the space itself. Years later, I attended one of her tasting menu experiences and was equally impressed.
Tomoko’s cuisine brings together foraged ingredients, seasonal vegetables, fermentation, and contemporary technique through a uniquely Japanese perspective. Every dish is carefully considered, beautifully presented, and full of unexpected flavours.
Beyond the food, the experience creates a genuine sense of connection and hospitality, making each tasting menu feel personal, memorable, and unlike a conventional restaurant meal.”
