Olive Rice with Chicken Cutlet Used to be a popular vegetarian restaurant named Food in the Woods, and recently they have closed and replaced by this name concept. The Buddha Bowl offers some interesting vegetarian Thai cuisine, with most of the dishes on the menu are pretty familiar with those Thai foods you know. They also many individual meal option such as this one. The mocked chicken cutlet has a crunchy skins but the mock meat inside was a bit too dry and hard to bite. Perhaps next time if you looking for some healthy vegetarian Thai food, this is where you can go to.

Chicken Rice This plant based Chicken Rice really tricked us. The chicken flavour rice tastes very similar to the real one. And the crispy skin of the mock chicken meat feels like the real texture! It also comes with a bowl of Szechuan Veg Pork Soup. The presentation is impressive and definitely recommended this dish! $9.90++

Blue Butterfly Pea Nasi Lemak The Nasi Lemak comes with Coconut rich alchemy blue butterfly pea rice, and a variety of plant based Fish Fillet, Otah, Ikan Bills and Szechuan Veg Pork Soup. The presentation is appealing and so is the food! $9.90++

Blue Pea Flower Nasi Lemak$9.9 Lotus Vegetarian is an upscale Chinese vegetarian restaurant serving elevated versions of tze char and local dishes such as nasi lemak. With a spacious interior, foor-to-ceiling glass windows, high ceilings, wooden furniture and finishings, and bare concrete floors, it very much channels a Muji vibe. They have to be commended on their completely meat-free nasi lemak, which in keeping with the healthy theme, comes with low GI, high fibre, blue pea-coloured Alchemy fibre rice and a plethora of sides which roughly approximate what you might find in a conventional nasi lemak. As part of the lunch set, it also comes with a herbal soup. Pretty value for money if you ask me. Taste: 3/5

Signature Dry Mee Sua (Spicy) This dish besides the spicy sauce it tasted quite normal without other flavours. I wouldn't order again for this bowl which cost $6.50. Overall rating I would give 2/5

Vegan Ayam Laska, Bak Kuteh & Curry cutlet Come down & try their ayam laksa (4/5)! I asked for extra spicy because i really like spicy food. The bowl may look simple (Bottom left) but the sauce is really flavourful! Love the tangy from the the lime & pineapple pieces while the mint leaves left a refreshing aftertaste. The dumplings are so-so (1/5) while the curry taste really mild & normal (2.5/5). The buk kuteh ingredients are generous and surprising the soup is light & more towards the herbal taste (3/5). If you like to have a soupy & satisfied meal cam give it a try. I forget about individual price but this meal is about $27++

Loh Mee From Daily Green 卤面 Unbeatable value for money! The vegetarian braised noodle from this neighbourhood coffeeshop is a steal at just $5.50. The portion is incredibly generous, and the flavors are rich and satisfying. A comforting and delicious meal that won't break the bank. Highly recommended!

Chicken Rice From Daily Green 鸡饭 The vegan chicken rice offers a simple yet satisfying meal with fluffy rice, sliced mock char siew, and green vegetables. A delicious and wholesome option. Highly recommended for a quick meal.

Simplicity At Its Best Fast becoming one of my favourite food spots, totally takes me back to my time in Australia and New Zealand with the quality of food and friendly staff. The avocado toast was executed perfectly! A dish I typically stay away from when I’m eating out (“can make at home what!”), but this one I’d happily pay for. Avocado was fresh, seasoned to absolute perfection, and on a seedy not-too-dense sourdough which is baked in-house. The side salad and sauerkraut provided a lovely element of zingy acidity and texture (+ extra health). Also ordered a single-shot almond milk cappuccino which I adored! It was silky smooth, light-medium roast, a rounded chocolatey-ness without much acidity. I love that they carry Milk Lab which does the creamiest almond milk I’ve come across to date. The staff are all just the cherry on top - sunshiny attitudes that make you feel right at home!

Vegetarian Dim Sum Char siew pastry, 咸水角, carrot cake and yam puffs. This really impressed us. No wonder LingZhi is a top brand. They're comparable if not better than non-vegetarian dim sum, especially the mind-blowing char siew pastry.

Fish Fillet but not a fish The edamame purée is interesting and worth a try

Fish Fillet Burger The potato fries is the best!

Omni golden fillet no fish burger 🍔 🐠 Really interesting because this really tasted like fish yet wasn’t fish! I think the “fish” being coated in a batter on top of the soft buns really made it seem like a normal fish burger. Tasted amazing and the sweet potato fries were divine as well! My friend got the Omni burger black but she said it was alright since I think the patty tasted a bit too fake– so it was kinda weird for her to eat this as if it was a normal meat patty. We also got the carrot juice and it was very refreshing! It was overall a nice meal and we felt a little less guilty when indulging in these burgers. 🤭

Curry Udon Hidden in one of the shophouses at Chinatown Food Street is this vegetarian restaurant, they have different menu everyday. The curry was creamy and tasty, not so spicy and well cooked.

Vegetarian Curry Baked Miller Great portion of curry with cheese, together with rice, vegetables and vegan meat. $7.50

Vegetarian Organic Brown Rice Set They have 2 different set meal (either brown rice or spaghetti) on that day we had our lunch. Heard from colleagues that the menu changes every day they do not really use flour in their vegetarian recipes. This is a good choice for health conscious individuals who are also vegetarian. This brown rice meal was filling for lunch and it doesn't feel too oily. Food priced at $7.

Western Otah Cutlet Rice The portions were sufficient and after the promotions, it’s very worth it to come here.

Black Kut Teh Lion Mane Hotpot ($16.90) I use 1 for 1 burpple voucher for main dish to redeem. I opt out noodle for side dish. But I felt that not much "pepper" taste as opt out for less spicy in flavour. They give a lot of ingredients inside hotpot such as lettuce, fungi mushroom, lion mane, tofu and sliced carrots. I did enjoy the experience for mini hotpot while they cooked ingredients to the boil. Their you tiao was quite crispy and can dip into the soup broth.

Pesto pasta Not a fan of the pesto sauce, tastes too nutty and not really of Basil. Also not a fan of the mushroom used and it’s a little too thick. Just not a fan of this pasta — will probably order another dish next time. However, with burpple deal - got two mains for$20.65 which is a great deal. Food portion is on the small side too. Especially for the location of this place. Will come back

Awesome ice cream joint!! $5.20 for the regular cup but the portion is actually not that little. We chose the Kochi Yuzu and Granny's favourite - both of which were their Signature flavours. Taste and texture were on point and there is really nothing to complain about at all. Lovely experience in a cosy air-conditioned environment with power plugs almost everywhere. Will definitely return for their seasonal flavours.

Lovely flavours! @tomspalettesg is familiar to many throughout the years, due to their huge variety of flavours and quality gelato! Do expect to find flavours that are interesting as well, such as Nasi Lemak and pipagao! However, my favourites are still their alcoholic flavours, as they remained pretty strong throughout the years! The Guinness Chocolate was a good blend of flavours, with the aromatics of the chocolate complementing well with the rich roasty flavour of the stout. This was not too sweet as well. The Rum & Raisin is a classic favourite, with a strong rum flavour. The vanilla milk base was rich and fragrant to begin with, making this such a hit! However, it can be a bit sweet so maybe a contrasting flavour might help. One of my favourite dessert places to go!
