Proper Chinese food

The menu is not so big but you can get Chinese food I remember from my youth like crispy fried noodles drowning in starchy sauce. The small is actually very big. One veggie dish even had gingko nuts in it. Just be sure to tell them you don't eat egg if you are vegan.

Pros: Mostly vegan, Proper Chinese food

Food is very good!

The restaurant is pretty far from the center of kuching, and the atmosphere in there is not the best. The food is more expensive (compared to street food). There is always an option of S, M, L Portions, but S is definitely enough for one person. S is between 15-30 RN.

The owner is very kind, speaks good english and helped me choose the menu. The food itself was amazingly good! I had something with mushroom meat, that had the consistency of real beef. The food came within 2 minutes, I never had it that fast in a restaurant!

Pros: Very good food

Cons: Far away from the center, bit more pricey but still reasonable

Mock meat central

This restaurant has some amazing mock meats on offer! Set up in the traditional Chinese style restaurant with spinning table, very nice. Lots of options to choose from, with dishes containing egg clearly labelled. Definitely must try the crispy ‘duck’ and the ‘pork’ with almond (if I remember correctly)... incredible!! You can order S, M, L portions, but small is enough for 2-3 people. The food came out pretty quickly. We were very happy with this place, so ended up going twice. Only negatives are: the price, but doesn’t come close to western prices; the menu is more limited on weekends; also the place is a bit out of the way, about 20 mins walk from waterfront. Definitely worth the walk there!

Pros: Lots of options, Delicious

Cons: On the pricier side, but not bad., Long walk from the city centre

Above average. Good Veg curry. A bit of a walk from town

This place is a bit of a walk from town and it was tricky enough in the day. Wouldn't fancy walking it at night, with it being probably quite unlit, uneven ground to walk and a fairly run down area.
That said,for lunch it was not bad. I had two things. the Special bean curd, which i was hoping would be the crispy bean curd type. Sadly it was soft tofu/bean curd and came out luke warm and in a not very appetizing black sauce. I was initially disappointed, but i also ordered the veg curry, which ended up coming out nice and hot. Was tasty and a good spice to it. I would recommend that. Overall, it was fairly good, but by far anything great. If vegam, make sure to ask for no egg.

Great place for dinner!

This is one of the very few vegetarian places in Kuching city centre that are open for dinner at night. We asked our guide to drop us off at the restaurant after the day tour, to save us the trouble of walking there. Most of the shops around this restaurant close by afternoon, so there was not much for us to explore except for a minimart, 1 convenience store, 2 coffeeshops and 1 foot massage parlor. After dinner was a 20 minute stroll (15 minutes if fast walking) back to Jalan Padungan vicinity, great digestion activity.
The restaurant's menu has a lot of options, most of the local delights are available. We ordered vegetarian oyster pancake, stir-fry midin, 3-cups mock chicken, and cereal abalone mushrooms. Tastes were great and we were not disappointed at all!

Pros: Tasty food, wide variety menu

Cons: Located quite a distance from tourist spots

tasty, large servings

not entirely vegan, but dishes containing egg were clearly marked. servings are pretty large, we ordered one noodle dish and one small mock chicken dish and had trouble finishing the food for about rm 26, not bad at all. dishes labeled spicy were pretty tasty.

A dissenting opinion

Surprised by the glowing reviews, I feel compelled to offer a bit of balance. I visited a few times, because the better places in town are closed on Sunday and/or close early. With each visit, I hoped that previous uninspired meals would be surpassed, but I was always disappointed. Food was always bland and overpriced. In the end, I gave up and decided self-catering on fruits and nuts was a smarter option.

Pros: Business hours

Cons: Bland food, Overpriced

so so, bland cantonese style cuisine

The dishes I chose were super bland. For people that dont like spice or strong flavour, this might be great.
I ordered the "Thai-style" Tofu- It was battered & fried soft Tofu, served swimming in sweet chili sauce. Sickenly sweet, and not a grain of salt anywhere on it. An insult to Thai cuisine.
I ordered the mixed veg with almonds as well, which was better- it was mostly lotus root, with a sprinkling of mushrooms, almonds and gingko nuts. It was pretty bland as well, but at least it had salt in it.

Pros: The only a-la-carte veg place around, Reasonable prices

Cons: Bland

Ordered the broccoli with mushrooms, Thai style tofu (bean curd), mixed veg with almonds, rice and drinks. All tasted fantastic! The options are creative and they have tons of choices. Highly recommended!

Nice ala carte food

Tried the hotplate noodles and mock meat rice. Very nice and price is cheap to me. Quite a large portion, just cost RM8-9. And it is quite a high class restaurant.

Well deco,

This place basically is serving Chinese ala-carte food with variety of choice with mock meat. Nice place to be for business lunch/ dinner or family gathering.
