Great Vegan Cafe - Edit
Little cafe within a hotel. Has a good variety of vegan meal options. We got several of the items including: burger, curry dish, egg sandwich and soy meat bowl. All had good flavor and good portions. Worth a visit.

Holy Yum - Edit
This place is so wonderful! I had to order multiple dishes to satisfy all my cravings. The egg sandwich is to die for… they somehow managed to add in the egg taste. And the ramen is delicious as well. The service was extremely fast.

Tasty, colourful dishes, served with a smile! - Edit
Pleasant venue; quiet and relaxing.
Read moreWe had the ramen and the curry, which were served swiftly and presented well.
The flavours in the dishes were good and balanced. I was still a bit hungry after the curry, but maybe because I had walked 7 miles beforehand!
Pros: Service and environment., Great ramen and iced soya matcha.
Cons: Portion size a bit small for the curry., Not quite hot enough (temperature).
