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.

Simple and delicious - Edit
Very happy with my meal here, though it might not look like much.. I got the set w the taro in it. Soup was delicious, and the taro was cooked perfectly. Great meal.

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 😉

We didnt love it here. The food was mediocre, the small windowless room was not very cozy. The food was pretty cheap though.

Nice Vegetarian Restaurant - Edit
Located on the 2nd floor of the building. I ordered stir fried mushrooms with broccoli. The food was very fresh and high quality, but it was not seasoned very much. Soy sauce, ketchup, chilis were provided to season on your own.

Pros: Fresh, high quality food, Inexpensive, Free tea and water

Very very cheap - Edit
The benefit of this place is a meal (dish, rice and soup) costs about £3. It’s cash or octopus only. If you’re looking for a quick cheap eat, great, but the food wasn’t particularly tasty and not very seasoned. My tastebuds may be ruined by British Chinese food 🤪 I got the vegetarian chicken and lotus root with rice
Read morePros: Cheap, Central, Easy to find
Cons: Food quite bland, Limited payment options , No drinks menu or drinks offered it seems

So cheap and good - Edit
Listen, you're paying HKD39 for a whole meal set and a soup. I'm visiting from the UK and that's less than £4 to me. Why would I complain? To add to that, the flavours were authentic and there's free tea & chilli sauce. The waitress spoke fluent English and even gave a discount on the soup. 10/10 would come again.

Generous Portions, Very Affordable! - Edit
In the heart of a bustling TST, somewhere quiet (when we went) that serves completely vegan foods with generous portions at a super affordable price. Would recommend their fried rice!! The soup was also 👍🏼.

Delicious food, no drinks - Edit
A simple restaurant, no bells and whistles, very low prices. I had the crispy seitan, which was delicious - served on a bed of steamed spinach, with rice on the side.
Read moreYou can get any main course as a combo meal with soup. That day they had a coconut soup, which was something I had never tasted before - it was really good.
The main con is that they have nothing to drink besides hot water (not room temperature, actually hot).

"To keep our body warm is good to health." This is the healthy eating concept in traditional Chinese medicine. That's why traditional Chinese restaurants do not provide any cold drinks and only encourage drinking soup or hot plain water. 😊

Great prices for set meals - Edit
This was a great find in the TST neighborhood, and conveniently close to the tourist-y waterfront. The veggie prawns in tomato sauce was hearty. No frills cafe with quick service and many options for set meals. Serve yourself water and tea. You pay right after you order.
