I literally stumbled over this restaurant! Unfortunately you would hardly find it via OpenRice as it's saved with its Chinese name. Even by entering "Veggie Food" you cannot find the restaurant...Well, anyway, I saw the sign of the restaurant with "vegetarian" when passing by and decided to go there the very next time I'll be around - now I tried it. First of all: the menu is in English! Thumbs up!!! Really! It's so hard to find a local, cheap (and vegetarian) restaurant having a English menu as
Well, anyway, I saw the sign of the restaurant with "vegetarian" when passing by and decided to go there the very next time I'll be around - now I tried it.
First of all: the menu is in English! Thumbs up!!! Really! It's so hard to find a local, cheap (and vegetarian) restaurant having a English menu as well. I didn't order a soup (all around 40-50$) as I wanted to try several dishes. All the soups I saw looked good, basically like in normal local restaurants, just the meat replaced by something vegetarian.
Some of the dishes arrived immediately like the steamed rice rolls with soy sauce, sesame and peanut butter, some took a while (like the fake chicken skewers).
As already mentioned, I ordered a glutinous rice roll (20$) which was already packed and ready to eat so I could start immediately! It tasted good, never tried one before. Actually I'm not sure whether it is really vegetarian... does seafood count as vegetarian? Personally, I don't eat meat and seafood, so eating seafood would be a bit awkward. I'm not sure. As the staff couldn't speak proper English, I couldn't ask them. It seemed to be real seafood (I mean...how to fake fish/meat floss??? )

All in all: I like the place very much even if I'm really not sure about the fact, whether the consider seafood as vegetarian or not... Next time I'll try to only take dishes which are without seafood anyway.
- English menu
- a huge selection of dishes from sweet to salty, soup and non-soup items, vegetables and soy products, wheat gluten...
- no long waiting
- not sure whether they use seafood as ingredients (and consider it to be vegetarian - some places in the world do so, some not)
- more or less clean
- friendly stuff (for HK conditions)
