Perfect local food (lunch) - Edit
Ah, Genesis was simply an amazing local experience. The place is a bit hidden, so don’t give up! There was an older lady serving us (maybe the owner) and she was such a fun character. She gave good recommendations and served us free tastings of their home-made sourdough breads. The food came quickly and tasted amazing! It was ”simple” but done so well.

Awesome little place with nice people - Edit
I'm here visiting for work and I feel SO grateful to have this place a block away from the office. Nonya laksa all day long, yes please, it's delicious. Or the Nadia Lemak, sure thing!

Simple but delicious - Edit
Not the nicest restaurant as it is located in the basement of a shopping mall but the food is really good! Would go again for the food. We had the „chicken“ rice and the laksa.

Good for quick bite - Edit
This was one of the only fully vegan places that were open later on (till 9pm). Good food, was not game changing but hit the spot for a quick meal. Was quiet but don’t let that stop you from going

I like the food and the prices are very good for vegan food in Singapore. The guy was nice and it's comfortable to dine in.

Great restaurant - Edit
All in all we were happy and the dishes were comparable with other vegan restaurants here not heavy on fake meat which we liked. Small but mostly local menu with some western dishes. The dumplings and the laksa were lacking a little bit of salt but we noticed that this seems to be a thing all over Singapore.
Read moreHappy that places like this exist. All the love and support to the vegan community pushing for change.

Satisfying - Edit
After what feels like ages trying to find this place, I succeeded in my adventure and was able to locate it. It’s on the lower floor of a mall so it can be quite tricky to locate. I tried one of their daily specials along with their vegan dumplings and almond milk drink. I absolutely LOVED their almond milk drink! Their vegan dumplings were good, not the worst but not out of this world amazing. I’m not sure if I completely understand the hype (maybe it’s because I didn’t try their lasagna?) but all in all, it was a satisfying meal that left me quite full. #Veganuary

Quite disappointing - Edit
The location is dire, in a basement of a very tired mall.
Read moreI had the award winning lasagna, makes the top 50 vegan meals in Singapore. Not hard to believe that there are 49 better meals. My partner had the clay pot something. A bit lacking in ant flavour.
For desert we tried the cheesecake, it was ok, but not great.
We have had better in other vegan restaurants, particularly in Malaysia. For such a vibrant city I was quite disappointed.
Pros: Totally vegan
Cons: Menu options, Location , Atmosphere

Vegan Lasagne - Edit
A quiet and unassuming eatery in the basement of Havelock II. The menu is quite small but is fully vegan (not many allium-free options), mainly featuring local dishes; popular items are the lasagne and dumplings. There is also a blackboard menu with some daily or seasonal specials. Taste leans towards being light and healthy. I would recommend the lasagne and almond brown rice milk! Hope the menu can be expanded and also hope the place can be spruced up a little. Few minutes' walk from Clarke Quay MRT and Chinatown MRT.

Great "fish" and incredible cheescake. - Edit
This is another vegan basement restaurant in Chinatown, although it is much quieter and more serene than the nearby SuManYuan, which is in a food court.
Read moreMAINS: Lemak Fish Rice was excellent, yummy satay sauce and the "fish" was spot on. My partner got the lasagna which comes with a side salad. It's a more healthy kind of lasagna, made with lentils. He said it was good as well as wholesome.
DESSERT: The cheesecake! OMG! I've had a lot of vegan cheesecakes and this was one of the best, especially considering it doesn't come with other flavourings, sauces or toppings. It doesn't need it, it is so good as it is. This is one of the few places that also sells vegan Magnums - great to grab one on your way out.
PRICE: Reasonably priced - 34.60 for two mains and two desserts.

Nice little place - Edit
I was glad to get a nice meal here. The bakuteh with rice tastes great and the housemade almond rice tea was also yummy! The owner seemed friendly and was kind enough to make my drink warm for me 😄

Modern little diner - Edit
Costs a bit more than the vegan Chinatown venues, but cheaper than across the river prices and has air conditioning. Nice black fungus (wood ear mushrooms) and a focus on healthier versions of some local dishes

Nice quiet vegan restaurant - Edit
I tried the claypot rice during my first visit. The rice was very fragrant and packed with flavors, yet felt very healthy. Had the vegan chicken rice for my second visit and was also very satisfied with the food quality. The brown rice was cooked just right and the tofu skin was delicious! Would love to try more of their dishes.

Nice and fine - Edit
You'll find the Genesis in the basement of the havelock2 building.
Read moreIt looks like a simple Restaurant but the food is very tasty. You order at the desk and pay immediatley.
I tried the dumplings and the lasagna. The dumplings were very nice. No idea what the filling could be. The lasagna came with a little side salad. The dressing of it taste not really like anything. But its ok.
I also tried the almond brown rice milk, this is a thick and delicious milk.
For dessert I had the vegan Magnum sea salt ice cream, that was very creamy and absolutely nice, that they offer it.

Absolutely delightful - Edit
Located inside the mall one level down from where google maps takes you, basement 1. Easy to find if you read the address properly. We got Laksa, dumplings, chicken and rice (made from yuba), and a chorizo which was from their specials. Cheap and tasty!

Really good vegan Asian food - Edit
Food was absolutely delicious! However, the portion seemed a bit small - although I ordered takeout so it might be different if you eat in. Chickn rice was flavorful but they could've given more sambal sauce.

Arrived at closing… - Edit
I arrived at about 8:20 and was told they closed at 8:30 instead of 9 so I felt really bad, but the staff told me I could still get food to go.
Read moreI started to order and he offered I could sit and eat. I ordered laksa and dou hua, the latter of which I ate there because they didn’t have it to go (already in a dish). I ate the dou hua while he made the laksa, which I took back to my hotel. Both were very tasty and enjoyable.

Healthy vegan food - Edit
Kudos on being a pure vegan restaurant! Portions were generous and the sambal was to die for. However, I do wish they offered more noodle options aside from thin beehoon.
