Kinda posh vibes 7/10 - Edit
If you like fine dining and that this place is great for you. I ordered one of the set menu meals and had I think 5-7 courses and they were all solid but nothing blew me out of the water like crazy, they have lots of options though.
Read moreDefo recommend quick service as well on the slightly more expensive side but it's calm. The serving staff were nice but had slight issue trying to order the set menu for 2/3 of us and having the other order seoertley but apart from that it was fine. Cool being so high up as well whilst eating.

Amazing - Edit
The food here was fantastic. I’ve seen a lot of people complain saying the restaurant is too expensive which I vehemently disagree with. The food is delicious and the servings are large and very filling. Would strongly recommend.
Read moreThere is also a phenomenal view of the city, especially if you are eating around the time of sunset.

Wonderful, beautiful view and kind owner. - Edit
A beautiful, set menu and also a la carte menu with many vegan options for diners to choose from.
Read moreThe Set A was delicious and worth the 55k won. You may need to look close for the signs, but please note it is on the 9th floor of the building.
Pros: Food is delicious , Host is warm and speaks English/Korean, Location is astounding

A vegan restaurant that will fool a meat-eater - Edit
I liked that the menu was asian-inspired without trying to replicate exactly specific dishes. However, the Tonkatsu would fool a meat-eater! The flavour and texture were perfect. We also had a mushroom and rice dish which was simple but full of flavours. And the portions are generous too!
Read moreAlso it's just a 20-minute walk along the shore from Gwangalli, so perfect to either finish the day or start the night!
I will definitely go again.

Delicious and calming - Edit
Came for the food stayed for the atmosphere. Stand-out dish was the fried beancurd with rice. Also had the avocado sushi role which was nice but I have had better similar dishes elsewhere. The yoghurt/pudding type dessert was yum. The place was calming and a nice space to spend an hour eating. Would come back and try other dishes.

Delicious Temple Cuisine - Edit
Vegan and allium-free eatery serving Korean temple cuisine. There's a 9-course meal available only with advanced reservation, 7-course meal available for order on the day of visit, and an a la carte menu. I got the Lotus Leaf Rice Set which allowed me to try a variety of items, and I found it quite value-for-money, since the menu leans towards being on the pricier side. Food was delicious and not bland at all despite not using alliums. Located some distance away from Gwangalli Beach (known as a good spot for viewing Gwangan Bridge light-up every night and Gwangalli M Drone Light Show every Saturday), closer to Millak Waterside Park. You can stroll there or take a bus!

Teilweise supergut, teilweise nicht so - Edit
Wir hatten die Suppe mit den Reispuffern, Bean Cutlet, Avocadorolle, Spicy Soup und Mushroom mit Tofu und Reis.
Read moreKlare Empfehlung für das Bean Cutlet und die Avocadorolle.
Die Suppe mit den Reispuffern war eher geschmacksneutral (und teuer).
Pros: Rein vegan , Nettes Personal
Cons: Nicht alle Speisen sind gut

Veganes Essen auf hohem Niveau - Edit
Man merkt, dass sich bei der Zubereitung Mühe gegeben wird. Leider war die Klimaanlage etwas kalt eingestellt und die Hintergrundmusik etwas eintönig. Das Restaurant verdient aber trotzdem alle 5 Sterne.

Tasty!😋 - Edit
Very tasty 8-course dinner for 40.000 won. A bit pricey but also worth it. Fine dining atmosphere in a simple but nice ambience with a view.

Fantastisches authentisches Templefood - Edit
Eine Tempelküche im 9. Stock mit Blick auf den Hafen und die Gwangandaegyon Brücke. Das essen schmeckt fantastisch, die Mahlzeiten sind üppig, der Service ist sehr freundlich und das Ambiente ist schlicht aber edel gehalten. Ganz nach der Buddhistischen-Tempelküchen-Tradition beginnt auch die Karte mit einer Weisheit und der Philosophie des Restaurants.

Pros: Geschmack, Ambiente, Ausblick

Late Dinner - Edit
After a long day of exploring in Busan, I was grateful to come across a vegan spot that was still opened. I was so excited to try this place out based on the amazing reviews, so I had high expectations. The food was okay. I appreciated the options/effort and made the most out of the dishes we ordered.

Decent. - Edit
From reading the reviews, we expected more. The food was decent, but the prices are high for what it is. It's also a bit out of the way.
Read moreWe had a mushroom and tofu dish, which was good and a sushi roll that was ok. Dessert was also good.
Service was friendly, though slow.

Delicious traditional food - Edit
I ordered the Lotus Leaf set (minimum order of 2) and it was amazing. An all vegan bento box with mixed grain rice steamed inside a lotus leaf topped with pine nuts and beans, sweet and sour vegan “pork”, fried vegan cutlet, salad with tahini dressing, some fruit, natto, tofu stew, side dishes: kimchi, pickled lotus slices, greens and vegan dried squid, dessert: vegan yogurt topped with apricot purée, shaved chocolate and almonds. The space is spacious, peaceful and they have a lovely Japanese toilet too!!

Worth making the effort for - Edit
We visited here on our last night in Busan and it was worth the effort. Lots of choice, from stir fried vegetables and noodles to avocado rolls but we had the temple style food which was incredible and included some homemade vegan yoghurt as a dessert too.

Yum yum yum - Edit
This place delivered. The portion size was generous with lots of options. The food was delicious, I wished I could’ve eaten more. The view at night was great especially when the nearby bridge had a light show going. Definitely worth a visit.

Expensive, but delicious and big portions - Edit
This was the most expensive meal we've had in Busan, but wow, it was very delicious and we ate way too much! The portion sizes are really big, we weren't able to eat it all! We got Course B, because unfortunately Course A (our preferred choice) was only available if you book at least 2 days in advance. Hope you like mushrooms!!! They were in almost every dish, but we're not complaining!
Read morePros: Large portion sizes , Great flavour
Cons: Expensive, Course A not available unless pre-booked

Very pricey - Edit
We had the menu which was 40.000 won per person. Since we normally got a temple food menu war 15.000-20.000 won I think it was overpriced. Nonetheless I must admit that every dish tasted good and even better than other temple food we had in comparison. They used a lot of mockmeat like shrimp which I really dislike.

Amazed with the flavours - Edit
This was such a delicious treat! We loved all three dishes and would certainly come back to try other things in the menu. The warm tea, the menu with English descriptions of ingredients, the welcoming staff, everything contributed to a lovely and cozy experience. Highly recommended! And the price was fairly reasonable too (32€ for three dishes).

Love it! Must go in busan - Edit
Enjoyed the delightful dishes at this vegan spot. 😋 If you are going to Busan soon, save this down! The Spicy Vegetable soup with assorted mushrooms, bean sprouts, bean protein, taro stem, bracken, and brown rice was comforting. The Vegan Yogurt, fermented in-store, and the refreshing cold drinks added to the enjoyable experience. The entire meal cost around 30ish SGD. Restaurant is pretty spacious and clean-comfortable looking (calmed my soul haha).
