Top sweet and sour 'pork'!

My partner and I love this place, mostly because they serve the most convincing sweet and sour 'pork' that we've ever tasted (apparently it's made from mushrooms). I also really like the claypot eggplant, marmite lotus root and the monkey head mushroom dishes. The yam ring/basket was also very good! I really like that this place serves a lot of the food you would find at a standard Chinese restaurant in Malaysia, but it's fully vegetarian (and most if not all is vegan - there may be egg/milk in some of the dishes or in the mock meats but I am yet to get a clear answer on this since I don't speak any Mandarin/Cantonese and not all of the staff understand English). There are pictures of all of the menu items, so ordering is never a problem. And so far, all of the dishes I’ve ordered have been confirmed egg/milk free. Despite not being on the menu, brown rice is sometimes available, but I’m not sure they prepare it regularly as sometimes they say it’s sold out/finished for the day.

I have always found the service to be friendly, and although the restaurant is sometimes quiet/empty if you go early in the evening, it is often busy (popular) at lunch time (mixed rice selection) and later in the evenings.

We usually pay around rm40 for 3 a la carte dishes, rice and Chinese tea. I think this is reasonable since the food is cooked to order and the portions are a good size.

I have recently got into the habit of taking my own Tupperware containers/reusable bags if I want to takeaway - the staff are very accommodating and very happy to pack the food into your own containers if you ask.

Pros: extensive mostly vegan menu , you can BYO containers for takeaway

Cons: some dishes may not be vegan

Bad service

Bad customer service and overly priced.
There are several occasions that customers find worms in their food.
Personally I found a tiny cockroach in my food.

Pros: Air conditioned

Cons: Bad customer service, Overly priced, Dirty kitchen
