Voices & Impressions
Guestbook
“ On and off, I've been tapao-ing vegetarian mixed rice from this restaurant for years. I like it because all the dishes have strong flavours that suit my taste. I've read lots of comments about their bad service attitude (even my friend experienced it and boycotted the restaurant). Yes, I have to admit, some of the staff always have that "muka busuk" face, and the price charged can vary significantly depending on who is at the counter. But for me, I haven't encountered any extremely unpleasant issues so far (touch wood). ”
“ This vegetarian restaurant serves a variety of mixed rice and noodle dishes, with a generous selection of options to choose from. They also offer an impressive range of vegetarian snacks and condiments for sale. The staff are friendly, and the prices are very reasonable. Highly recommended! ”
“ First time visiting since they moved to the new lot (previously just located on the next few lots). I ordered vegetarian curry wanton mee, this was one of my favorite curry wanton mee. The curry taste is nice for vegetarians. They also served other dishes and mixed rice. The seating area is larger compared with the previous lot. Normal environment and parking can be found along the road side parking lot but not on the peak hours. ”
