Good for cheap, quick food in a hurry - Edit
The staff are incredibly friendly and the menu is expansive. I highly recommend the truffle rice and the salt & pepper chicken. A good local experience in a very, very casual, no-frills setting. Bring your own napkins because they charge for packs of napkins. The portions are big, so if you come hungry you will leave full.

Great local place! - Edit
Like others, I had some trouble finding it. Nice and filling meal set of a main dish, rice, and soup for 61HKD. I got the tofu skin rolls with ginger sauce and loved it!

Quick lunch - Edit
Stopped here for lunch, food was a bit bland for our taste. There are condiments on the corner table, I added spicy sauce.

Maybe it is Buddhist (?), which may mean there's no garlic, onion etc.

Hidden and cosy - Edit
I didn’t at first find it and thought it was closed but just walk in at the address and go up to the second floor then left, it’s a tiny hidden diner with a nice lady making sure you understand it’s self service :)
Read moreThe food was really tasty, options included a set with a soup (beans and carrots). No frills, perfect for a quick meal.

We ordered ginger bean curd and brocoli enoki mushroom dish! Pretty good although I added lots of chili sauce for extra flavour!

Good prices, large portions - Edit
It took us a moment to find the place but we were happy we did. There is an English menu and an additional menu of specials. You can order just by the dish or as a set with rice and soup. We definitely recommend the salt and pepper chicken side dish. The stuffed eggplant, veggies & tofu puffs were delicious. The chef's special radish and tofu skin stew was umami and comforting. We also ordered a side dish of mixed veggies in XO sauce that was a little spicy. The staff were delightful and we enjoyed our meal immensely.

Authentic chinese eatery - Edit
I almost missed the entrance and then thought I'm wrong but it is very- let's say- hided and small, second floor on the left. The food I had was good and it's so cheap (cash only or octopus card), a nice lady served me and I might return someday. Free tea and water provided. No desserts or sweet stuff unfortunately.

Very good service - Edit
The menu has 2 sides, one side there is a list of vegitables, if u order set meal, it is served with rice and soup. For 61$ this was a good meal, nice hot soup is served first, then the meal....
Read moreHostess can speak good English. Place is modest, seems like a family run business......
Thanks
Pros: Set meal, Fixed menu, Location

All vegan but not much flavour - Edit
It’s great that everything there is vegan, however all the food I had was bland and lacking flavour. It was reasonably priced for HK which was a bonus.

Kind of tasteless - Edit
The staff were friendly but unfortunately we were not impressed by the food. The fried salt and pepper “chicken” was good, but the rest of the food lacked flavor.

Perfect food after a night of drinking (and probably even without the booze). Huge portions for really cheap. Pretty nondescript place on the second floor of a white building.

Very tasty & quite affordable - Edit
Most of the stuff I had was very tasty. The sweet & sour dish was too sweet for me, but that was somehow on me. I came in the evening when they didn'f have a lot of meal deals left, so I had limited options to choose from and took what was there.
Read moreThe vegan chicken was incredible in taste and consistency. Dunno how they make it, but you HAVE to try it!
I also got sesame soup as a free dessert which was surprisingly nice.

Simple but tasty food - Edit
It's simple but still tasty and for the menu you only pay 69HKD, which is approx. 8EUR/CHF/GBP. You will get a bean soup, bowl of rice and a main of your choice. For that price you can't complain 😉
