Your question is too broad to answer here, and besides, obviously, it is way off-topic.

Anyway, I try to provide some info. Vegetarian food is "shojin ryori" in Japanese. You can find some useful info by googling "shojin ryori". (Don't forget to enclose them with double quotations.)

The first site that came up when I did was this.

Here is one thread in the Japan Forum that may interest you:

Vegetarian gyoza

It should be noted that it's tough being a vegetarian in Japan:

As you can see, Japan is not a kingdom of vegetarians. We are a "eat everything" nation.

Hiroyuki is right on the money. Also popular for presentation here is magnolia (hounoki, pronounced 'hoe no kee' (no laughing at the back, please)) leaf. The lines on magnolia lleaf run across the leaf.
