great food. good price. friendly service. - Edit
Although it was a very busy day, the waiter promptly attended my table and the food was quick to be served. It was a bit loud, and certainly not a super fancy restaurant, but it was quite atmospheric hearing the ceremony upstairs while I ate. The waiter was very happy to explain the dishes and provide recommendations.

wow!!!! - Edit
Had lunch here today. For winter they do an amazing hotpot , you cook it yourself at your table. Ginger based soup, you get a plate of noodles, veggies, mushrooms and tofu to put in and it cooks in a hotpot over a small flame. Yummy satay sauce and a dessert.

Amazing!!! - Edit
The food was delicious and their service was very friendly. I took my meat eating family there and they absolutely loved it. There was also a temple upstairs which was an added bonus giving us an overall all round great experience. Definently planning to go back there.

Lovely place - Edit
Very relaxing and very affordable. The portions are small, but cheap enough you can get a few. It's really designed to be as relaxing as possible, take your time to eat your food and enjoy the ambience. You get unlimited refills on your tea. It's a place you could easily spend the day there with good company or a laptop.
Read moreFirst Sunday of each month apparently is a very special brunch. They do a buffet and have musicians play.
Weekends are also apparently special occasions, as you can get a multiple course meal (if I remember correctly).
Highly recommended.
Outside the restaurant area is a store when you can buy teas, energy rocks (if you're into that sort of thing), and other stuff. There was a musty smell coming from one of the products I felt, but my wife didn't smell it, and it will likely go away when they swap stock. Upstairs is a buddhist temple, where you can say thanks to the Buddha, however I suspect I did this wrongly as I was ushered out of the temple area fairly fast after giving thanks :P. When you leave, there is also a bowl of sweets, that I suspect are given to the temple for free from misc sources or perhaps dumpster dived, as they definitely don't seem necessarily vegan (being like the cheap $1 coin chocolates, minties, etc) however, as a vegan myself, this hasn't affected my review as it didn't seem like they were things the establishment actually purchased or deliberately came about having.
All in all, staff were amazing, food was great, ambience was great.
Pros: Yummy food, Relaxing, Affordable
Cons: A bit out of the way, Treats at the counter don't seem vegan
