They started the meal with a soup of winter melon, vegetables and burdock. Very subtly flavored.
One of my favorite dishes of the day...sweet corn and green peas with tofu. Naturally yummy.
The baby bok choy, mushrooms, mock meat made of gluten and tofu, with creamy sesame sauce. Deliciously creamy.
The Cucumber, celery, carrot, and yellow bell pepper with mock meat made of tofu. Taste absolutely fresh.
Crispy vegetarian rolls. I love anything deep fried, so this was one of the highest highlights of the day.
The fresh shitake on vegetables was ok.
Every dish served taste really subtle, mostly with a shiny corn starch finish, with absolutely no hint of aromatics and spices. Apparently, anything that pleases the palate are forbidden in Buddhism. It's eat-to-live as oppose to live-to-eat, I guess? Can you imagine cooking without garlic, shallot, and all of the wonderful fragrance we normally use? Considering this fact, the dishes weren't as bad as I imagined them to be, they were even delicious, as we were super starved from all the hiking.
