We went for dinner and the place was quite full
We wanted to order a la carte but was told that only set menus where available.
The food was well presented and not oily (as you normally get in most regular chinese vegetarian restaurants, everything seems to be swimming in oil) and for non vegetarians like my 2 friends, it was a tasty alternative to eating meat.
The meal started with soy spiced meat and crisp seaweed crackers. Very good! The soy meat tasted much like pork sheets!
Next up was a tray of sushi, again, all vegetarian and very well made and presented.
Along with the sushi were small plates of other appetizers like steamed okra, really yummy tart tomatoes, spicy seaweed and tofu slices.
A small plate of three pieces of a cheese and mushroom pastry followed, this was delicious and the puff pastry was done very well. Then each of us got a small dish with a steamed daikon topped with grated crunchy taro, light and easy to eat.
A clear mushroom broth helped cleanse the palate.
The main dish was a platter of mock chicken, cooked the chinese way. It was a bit dry but otherwise the right flavors were there. A dish of stewed pumpkin served with goji berries was healthy and at the same time, very tasty. We also got a mixed vegetable stir fry and then, fried rice with mushroom bits that was very good, we ate the entire serving! There were two desserts to round out the meal -- a small cup of sesame flavored tofu, which I really liked and an apple crumble. Which was not the best part of the whole meal.
There is a small vegetarian grocery which sells ingredients, the aforementioned soy meats and even frozen foods, vitamins, supplements right outside the restaurant. If you want to continue the vegetarian lifestyle, this is a good place to get started!
