Truly home-cooked vegetarian meals

Very tasty noodles or brown rice with lots of vegetables tofu and some veggie-meat. Very homey feeling where tables are shared with friendly strangers… and it does get busy with clearly many regulars!

Ich würde gerne 6 Sterne geben! ⭐️

Das kleine Restaurant in China Town ist DER GEHEIMTIPP für Veganer und Vegetarier. Große Auswahl an komplett veganen Gerichten, die unglaublich lecker sind. Die Portionen sind größer als der Durchschnitt hier 😊 Wir haben für 2 Hauptgerichte, 2 Sides und 2 Getränke umgerechnet 20€ bezahlt. Absolut top!! ⭐️

Pros: Leckeres Essen, Nah an der MRT-Station, Günstige Preise

So good I forgot to take more photos

Fun authentic Singaporean experience dining here. We ordered lots of different dishes and all were delicious. The only one I remembered to photograph was the black olive fried rice which was the best ever B.O.F.R. I’ve ever tasted.

Pros: Fun atmosphere , Delicious food, Lots of choices

Such a tastebomb!

Their food is so delicious and tasty! I ate here twice and was blown away both times. Their curry is out of this world and the Bao Buns chefs kiss!👌 The price is worth it and the staff is friendly.

It was always busy when I was there so it shows how good the food is.

Great variety and tasty food

Authentic food experience, one lady speaks English well. There are lots of options and the thai mango chicken is delicious! There’s no aircon but well worth it.

Pros: Thai mango chicken , Satay chicken, Noodles

Cons: Smell of Durian from the street when wind blows

Delicious and just what you'd expect

Ate here tonight and had the Mie Goreng, it was delicious, filled with flavor and a considerable amount of fake meat and vegies. The portion was large and I'm sitting here in a happy food coma after devouring it all😄

Will come back again before I go home. The place was busy, food came out quick, I sat with a friendly local mother and daughter.

Pros: Delicious

great value and selection

if you are a fan of mock meat this is the place for you.
in the heart of Chinatown an establishment frequented by locals, a no frills restaurant. a separate vegan menu is available which has a decent choice. staff are great and out door seating allows you to eat and watch the world go by.
we had a mixture of mock meat and satay dishes all of which were great. staff were great and the locals treated us a bit of a novelty.
worth a visit.
Had another great visit. Great selection on offer and enjoyed every dish especially the spicy aubergine. Always good to get dumplings as it's something not available back home.



Six years later and I have no complaints. This is great place offering fanatic value compared to most other restaurants.
Busy busy.

Just awesome

Fully vegan, you can order a la carte but also "pick and pay" where you choose between rice, brown rice or noodles and then just point at the dishes you want on top from the counter. Delicious, healthy and inexpensive.

Pros: Wide selection , Great food , Easy to order

Fantastic

I went wanting the laksa, but it was quite late and they were sold out. I was disappointed, but the food we got instead was outstanding. I got the mee goreng, and shared the dumplings. My partner got the sin chew bee hoon, also incredible.

We couldn’t finish it all and they kindly packed it up for us.

Pros: Everything great!, Cheap and good location, Friendly staff

Cons: Out of laksa (understandable!)

So delicious

I had the Pineapple Fried Rice and it was the best one I think I’ve ever had! The flavour was incredible. There is no aircon inside and if you’re solo traveller you may be sharing a table with others. Staff were so friendly and helpful. I would definitely come here again

Absolutely delicious food at good price

This was an absolutely incredible meal - all the food was vegan and everything was AMAZING!! We ordered huge amount (enough for 4 people) and it was only 65 Singaporean dollars - about £38!). Everything was truly delicious - with helpful staff and a buzzing atmosphere with lots of local people. Would especially recommend the olive rice! (They take cash or pay now, not card!)

Tasty food, popular spot

Great local spot - was busy and buzzing when we went. Can order a la carte or from the buffet. Mains are between 5-7 dollars. The laksa was delicious and my plate of rice and sides was tasty and a generous portion. Staff friendly. Would recommend! Be aware - they only take cash.

Seriously AMAZING! A must try in Singapore

There is an abundance of options. Everything I tried was super flavourful and I tried a lot! You can get rice and 3 choices for only $5.
The bao buns were particularly mind blowing. Super sweet staff who understand what is vegan.
Would come back here everyday!

Pros: Great flavours , Cheap and large portions , Nice atmosphere for a little place

Cons: NONE😄

Perfection

What an experience! Food stand feeling in the middle of Chinatown, Singapor. Everything's vegan, except for the coffee, it can be ordered with milk.

We had Chicken Satay, Fried Brown Rice, Dumplings and Chicken in Leaves. Amazing taste, lots of Umami.

The Fried Rice was explicitly good! Definitely recommended!

Pros: Taste, Location, Cheap

So many options!

We ordered the satay chicken skewers, the vinegar fish, and the black pepper udon. They were all delicious, and I expect that everything else on the menu would be too 😋 would definitely visit again.

Delicious food

Very basic cafe with a tonne of choices, I really didn’t know what to get. I opted for a fake fish stew, and it was delicious. Spicy but not too much heat. And don had some satay skewers, equally as good. Left very satisfied.

Had the ”chicken” curry and it was one of the nest meals I’ve had so far, and under $10!
