Anyway, they usually close at 5...but they host private parties. So fearing ridiculously high costs for a private party, we called and learned it was actually completely reasonable for a party in Japan and even on the cheap side to have the whole restaurant to ourselves. (yeah, run on sentences! Can I be the queen of run on sentences?) We also informed them that they need not make any of their vegetarian options and just go vegan all the way!
How have I written 2 paragraphs without any pictures!?!?
Here's the spread with everyone's grubby little hands!
This is my plate. Clockwise from the bread: bread with a hummus-type spread, fried 'egg' rolls, a brocolli salad with imitation feta, chickpea salad, bean sprout salad, pasta and lentil salad, bean (maybe lentils) burgers with a tomato sauce, stir fry with mock beef, and karaage in the center. I was so overwhelmed by the massive amount of food and the friends, that I couldn't even finish it all. It's also too bad that I tend to talk too much and thus eat really slowly.
Anyway, I think the food was awesome and at a good price and hey, 16 of our friends could see that vegan food is delicious and varied (not that we let them forget that). Now to convert them all...

I'm so jealous of your party - I love Green Earth. (Which, by the way, I reviewed here!)
Hello,
No need to post this as a comment really. I've been reading your blog a bit lately, so I thought you might be interested in mine at www.deepkyoto.com as I have a lot of posts about Kyoto's vegetarian restaurants up here:

Ooh, how exciting! I went to Osaka & got a tattoo at Three Tides, but I've never been to Green Earth. Next time!
Oh hey, I go there all the time! It turns out there are many more fellow vegans in the Osaka area than I thought.
