Lots of meaty alternatives with strong flavor - Edit
We tried the Black Pepper Udon and the Black Pepper Mushrooms. Yes, I love black pepper (in all honesty, for some reason I didn't notice both dishes were samish... must have been really hungry).
Read moreThe udon dish was ok, but nothing exciting. Flavoring was really strong, maybe a bit too much as it was challenging to taste all the ingredients present.
The mushroom dish was surprisingly meaty. I'm not used to eating mushrooms prepared in a meaty way, so it was quite disconcerting. But not unpleasant, especially if you're looking for such a texture and taste. The flavoring was as strong as with the udon dish, but I found that in this case, it was still ok.
Pros: (Alternative) Meaty menu

Vegan mutton rendang😋 - Edit
I ordered Nasi Lemak which comes with vegan mutton rendang. I thought they will serve with mock meat initially and I was taken aback when I realised that they use mushroom only. The texture was chewy like mutton. I also was curious and reconfirmed with teh waitress whether is it real mutton. HAHAHHAAH in a vegetarian restaurant. LMAO, thank God the waitress has patience and she answered my questions politely. So far one of the best vegan mutton rendangs that I've tried. 💜 #Veganuary

Solid vegetarian restaurant with vegan options - Edit
[Update 19/4/2019: I noticed the last few times I went that they've switched to paper straws which is awesome. But as consumers we should avoid any disposable item for the health of our planet.😄The food has been consistently good and the service is friendly. Upgrading my rating to five stars as I really like this place.]
Read moreWent here twice and enjoyed both experiences. My Real Café closed down for a time and reopened in a bigger space on the block or shops facing Jalan Barat. They have quite an extensive menu (many of them containing egg) but many of these can be veganised by requesting that no eggs or dairy be used.
The pan mee is a nice vegan dish with wheat noodles, sliced mushrooms, mock anchovies and yin choy (amaranth greens) in a flight, flavourful broth. It's a generous serving and makes a satisfying meal. Other tasty dishes include the koay teow in seaweed soup, wantan mee with 'mutton' curry and fried tofu skin (double check to make sure eggs and dairy aren't used) and kung po style monkey head mushroom. I also had the stir fried kai lan which was as expected.
All the portion sizes are quite generous so you get good value for your money. The space is very clean and comfortable, and the staff friendly and helpful. I noticed that they include straws with all cold drinks, even iced water/Chinese tea. Annoyingly, we got straws with our iced Chinese tea even though I requested no straws. Please strongly remind them not to provide straws! As we know, they are unnecessary and damaging to the environment and wild life. :-)
Pros: Extensive menu and good value for money, Nice space, Friendly staff

Foodie experience in My Real Cafe - Edit
Has a good feel in the simple ambiance. MRC divided into cafe n dining, but one can also dine in Cafe section whilst having coffee. Straightforward food and enjoyed thoroughly on the rich taste of Pumpkin Noodles. Lived up to friendly service n quality food. Pizza was introduced recently... yet to try it. Good delectable food at a reasonable price.
