[MUKU]
MUKU opened in order to inform more people about animal welfare and veganism with the aim of realizing “animal welfare and gentle consumption. In principle, we operate a menu that is egg-free, but when we do use eggs, we only use flat-fed (cage-free) eggs.
In addition, we are also working to **minimize** the use of eggs (Egg Smart).” This is a very animal-friendly concept. The website also clearly states, “We use healthy and safely raised ingredients whenever possible in consideration of animal welfare.

KURASiKA
The couple who owns KURASiKA took an ethical concierge course at the Ethical Association of Japan and reopened their recycled children’s clothing store as “REUSE & ETHICAL STORE KURASiKA. In addition to children’s goods, the store also handles ethical goods such as fair trade and organic products, and they have promised to only sell cage-free food products in consideration of animal welfare.
PECOTA PECOTA Gluten Free
Located just a few minutes’ walk from Kita-Senju Station, this gluten-free restaurant in a secluded location serves homemade meals made with organic ingredients that are gentle on the body. Eggs are heirloom eggs from a vineyard that uses a circular farming method, which is a good choice from both an animal welfare and global environmental perspective.
The Animal Rights Center wholeheartedly supports these stores!
