Tasty - Edit
I had a rosted cauliflower steak and my friend nutella-hazelnut latte. Both were very tasty! It's s vegetarian place and they have quite a number of vegan choices but they could still add more. Different types of plant-based milk available.

Nice surprise - Edit
This was a busy place on Friday evening. Didn't realise it was veggie and I'm guessing the "V" on the menu meant vegan. Service was relatively slow in asking for our order. Very sad not to see any vegan desserts.

Good, but the Sarit Centre branch is better - Edit
I'm returning to edit my review after a third visit, as my first visit wasn't great. Future visits have been better.
Read moreThe fully vegetarian menu now has ten vegan main courses. I tried the vegan shaksuka which came with a Jerusalem bagel - except it was served with dry and cheap tasting pitta bread which they refused to replace. The meal was OK but not particularly tasty, and was nowhere near an over thousand bob main course.
On a future visit I had the quinoa salad, which I very much enjoyed - though it's huge. I also had the hummus which was a bit meh, again with those disappointing pitta breads. My friend had the arrabiata pasta which is possibly the first non meat meal he's ever had, and he loved it.
The activated charcoal and mint latte ordered with oat milk was absolutely outstanding.
The date smoothie was excellent.
Downsides: it's too big and too open, with loud background music from the mall. The Sarit Centre branch nearby is cosier and friendlier. My favourite waitress Milka from their sister restaurant Shokupan now works here as head waitress, so the service has a good chance of improvement.

Great for vegetarians lacking for vegans - Edit
I went to this branch because this was listed as vegan-friendly. So went there hungry and looking to order a bunch of options between two people. Imagine my surprise that there is only one item marked as vegan. Even French fries have to be veganized as they have parmesan!! Talked to the server at length and she confirmed with both the supervisor and chef that there was only one vegan item, the Malaysian Curry (It was however quite tasty). I even asked about the hummus, full medames, falafel and the tofu dish which are authenticity vegan but was told they couldnt be veganized.
Read moreI'm quite disappointed because this group of restaurants can make majority of their offerings vegan but menu is so egg and cheese heavy!
Pros: Menu is for vegetarians, Amiable serversg
Cons: One vegan item marked on menu, Fries have to be veganized & too much paprika

Hummus, falafel and crusted tofu are all now vegan. There are ten vegan main courses on the current menu.
