One of the classic delicacy that is recommended by the staff is this dish, which features a "Popiah wrap" combination of Crispy Soya Slices coated in batter, combined with Passion Fruit, Carrot and Cucumber Stripes, topping it off with their homemade sauce. The taste is pretty refreshing with a mix of sweet, sour, and savory taste. Its good when served hot though.<br />

If you are craving for Or-Nee, yet worry for your health, this is a great alternative for you as theres no Lard and Coconut Milk used. The Lotus Paste was sooo creamy that we had 2 servings of this as we couldnt get enough of it. If you still have space for dessert, Trust me, this is great. Note that its a warm dessert.</div>

Its great to see many new offerings in Singapore now and then and as a vegetarian, we hope to see more options available for all. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the dim sum soon!</div>

And we are ready to Toss! Wishing all good luck and happiness this coming 2017! Note: If you do not have a sweet tooth, you may cut down on the sauce. Otherwise the entire blend of sauce and veg is awesomely yummy esp. the truffle which has a strong aroma aftertaste! <br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The Ingredients for the soup: Mushroom, Yellow Fungus, Bamboo Ginseng, Lotus Jelly (雪莲子) and red date. Boiled for hours and served in a Baked Coconut Husk, and amazingly all the flavors blend adequately well. It was the first time I've tried 雪莲子 and it has a jelly taste.<br />

A new creation by a famous chef, this dish blew me off totally and voted by Ms Veg as the best dish of the night! The purple rice covered the top of the tofu and its crispy on top! The Asparagus was rather blend, but the sauce was just nice for it. They even included a mushroom wrapped with edible gold leaf on the side! Ms Veg had golden lips after eating this! </div>

Served cold with bits of Mandarin Orange in this Mojito. It does taste like Mojito minus the Alcohol.<br />
<br />
All in all, it was a great dining experience with good service staff at Elemen, and the chefs have put in tremendous effort on this CNY menu, which Ms Veg thinks is good as there's no mock meat used! Ms Veg thinks that it is a reasonable price at approximately $60/Per pax (after tax) as ms veg felt extremely full after this meal! <br />
Reservations are now available.<br />
The CNY menu will start from 23rd Jan till 31st Jan. During this period, note that their regular menu would not be available.<br />
For vegans, i've enquired that some dishes do contain dairy content, but they can remove/replace with alternatives, so do inform them before you go.<br />
I'll definitely visit again as they have recently changed their regular menu, so there are many new dishes to try! Sedap!<br />

Blue Bistro positions itself as a health food store and being strategically located in Bugis (where there are close to 10 other competitors within the vicinity, there must be something different served to attract customers.<br />
Ms Veg was at Sim Lim the other day hence decided to try this cafe out since Burlington Square is right beside. Note that there's no Veg food in Sim Lim!<br />

The Crispy Nuggets was the healthiest version Ms Veg ever had as there wasn't any oil at all given that it was air fried. It was a little hard. Noodles was chewy and beansprouts were crunchy.</div>

Cabbage Soup $1</div>

It was rather crowded on a normal working day, and its good to cleanse our body once in a while with healthy meals. The owner was friendly as well and he even gave us free air fried fries. They do serve other local delights like Rendang Curry and Udon Soup.</div>

Xin Man Yuan (formerly @ Chinatown) has since moved to Bukit Timah and rebranded themselves with a new Name - Miao Xin Vegetarian.<br />
Ms Veg was in the West and decided to make a trip to this newly located cafe. Note that Parking can be difficult, as there's only parallel along the shop houses, or further up at courts. No free parking.<br />

Its a smaller outlet compared to its previous location which is now replaced by Miao Yi Vegetarian (Formerly Coronation). They are still under the same management I think. it was dark and I couldnt take the entire cafe picture.<br />

The Crispy duck does not contain any mock meat as it was basically mushrooms wrapped in beancurd sheets and deep fried with a batter. I find the skin a little hard, but it was still ok with the sauce (甜面酱) and lettuce. $8 is a cheap deal.</div>

Salted Egg is the hottest item these days and if there is anything a Must order from Miao Xin, it has to be this dish (NOT VEGAN). There's 2 types of mushrooms fried in batter and coated in salted Egg sauce. It doesn't look that fantastic but the taste blew me away. It was so good that it would make this cafe famous for its salted egg dish. hehehe~</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
There's still so much to try from Miao Xin and am glad that the prices are not too ex. They do charge 10% Service Tax as well as GST 7%. Even their laksa is cheaper than clover's one. </div>

The only sad thing gone is the dim sum that Ms veg now has to go HK or Macau to satisfy her craving.<br />

Ms Veg went to nomVnom previously when they were at Raffles Place and recently they have moved to Clarke Quay since the beginning of the year! Finally I went to visit with the mister and was surprised to see my fellow blogger Friend Keith (www.travelinspiration.com) there too. So, look out for his post too!<br />
<div>
Anyway, nomVnom in my opinion is a close competitor to Vegan Burg. However, they offer a lot more options in comparison. To date, they have 16 types of Burgers, 13 types of Sides and 20 types of drinks available! </div>

My Mister ate this the last round at Raffles Place. Its a HUGE burger with double patty, and if you just want 1 patty, the Nom Nom Burger comes with just 1. </div>

This time decided to try the Spicy Rice Burger which doesnt come with a bread.Instead, it has a Rice Patty on top, middle was turnip mixed with a special homemade peanut Curry Sauce (not spicy) and then the meat patty at the bottom. The way to eat this is to use your fork and knife! Ms Veg initially thought the Rice Patty was quite saltish but it tasted well with the sauce and turnip. It actually took us some time to realize it was actually ketupat (the malay rice cake that people eat with Satay) dipped in batter and deep fried. It was a good innovation that came from Satay I guess.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Goro Balls is actually potato balls. They actually mixed vegetables inside and for a moment ms veg thought there were onions! Tastes similar to Vegan Burg's Spinach Pops.</div>

This burger totally blew me away! The chewiness of the patty was awesomely yummy, tasted a lot like the Calamari Rings. Truffle Fries was good as well! Most importantly, there's no cheese at all. Its totally vegan!<br />

Its interesting to see so many options available at Nom Vnom and whats great is everything is vegan with no Onions/Garlic, so we can eat everything on the menu. For the health conscious you, they do have steamed patties for some burgers if you do not want to take fried foods.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Ms Veg tried the Sausauge (with courtesy from Melano) and felt that it was overly fried and lost its juiciness. Vegan Franks from Vegan Burg is better in terms of this.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The "Otah Otah, Meatless Mexican, Beetroon Hummus, Baby Truffle etc have steamed patties. Do check with the staff before ordering. We spent a total of $26 for 2 Burgers, 2 Sides and 1 Drink. Not your everyday economical meal, but worth a visit and indulgence once in a while. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Grove has started its operations for a couple of months now and Ms Veg finally had some time to bring her folks there!<br />
I understand that this is a new sister company of "Elemen" which is operated under the Koufu Group.<br />

I have been to Onn previously, but didnt snap any pictures then.<br />
Anyway, decided to visit again and Onn is still up to your yummy lunch standards!<br />

Operated by 2 chefs, they offer different specials of the day.<br />
<br />
I was there with my colleague and we decided to try out the Burdock & Minced Meat Rice and Wanton Minced Meat Noodles.<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Can't recall the price of the food, but its your usual $3-5 fare. Im surprised that the rice served is just brown rice! The Minced Meat and Black fungus was really yummy and not too salty. Blended in perfect with the rice.</div>

I didnt try this but my colleague who did said the wontons was sooo good that she didnt even offer me a bite! Ms veg would definitely be back for this as well as the double boiled soups!</div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is another post contributed by Dr Neoh</span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Melaka is one of my favourite town in Malaysia which I visit frequently and regularly. This recent visit, my non-veg friend GL brought me to her favourite vegetarian restaurant Shitoya.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;">Customers are required to take of their shoes before entering. It's like you are entering your friend's house.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; text-align: left;"><br /></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The location could be a bit of challenge to find, although it is actually not far away from tourist spots like Jonker walk. GPS, Waze and/or Google Maps would be indespensible unless you are local.<br /><br />Since GL is a local, we have no problem locating this joint.<br /><br />There is no barrier between the dining area and the kitchen; again, as if you were in your friend's house.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br />The decorations gave a homey feeling.<br /><br />As stated in the cover of the menu, please be patient, as the chef/owner is not professionally trained, and not able to handle two or three woks at a time!</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><br />We ordered "Vampire Fried Rice" on the spot. "Vampire" pronunciatino in Mandarin sounds like "shredded ginger" (僵尸 vs 姜丝), and it also imply that it is without garlic. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /><br />We also had a bowl of salad, and a serving of roasted vegetable rolls as side dishes.<br />In conclusion, Shitoya is a restaurant with homey feel, relaxing environment and nice food. Most dishes are priced between RM12 to RM20, which I think it's quite reasonable for the quality.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It has been some time since ms veg has overseas post. Anyway, I do welcome contributors who do not want to own any blogs, but want to share food places.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Here's a contributed one from Dr Neoh who recently went Malaysia for some nice food!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">Oriental Garden Delights Restaurant is owned by my friend. We went to the same secondary school, and hanged out a lot during those days. After secondary school, we travelled different career paths, and had lost contact for many years. We reconnected via Facebook a few years ago, and he told me that the chef at his restaurant is capable of preparing vegetarian dishes.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br />I didn't make much effort to visit though. However, recently I came to know that the restaurant was converted to fully vegetarian, so I decided to go, and had since paid a few visits.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">It is located in Kelana Mall, not a prime location, but quite a comfortable environment.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">At my first visit, I ordered a serving of Vietnamese coffee while waiting for my guest.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">When my guest arrived, we ordered a few dishes.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">The portions are quite generous (all the orders are either 'small' or 'regular'). The foods are quite nice, tasted like authentic vegetarian dishes, with no trace to suggest that it was non-veg previously.</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><span style="color: #222222;">Subsequent visit I went with my daughter. She ordered rice with eggplants on sizzling hot iron plate. I ordered fried glass noodles (with egg). We had Vietnamese spring rolls as side dish, and a 'small' bowl of soup.</span></span></div>

This week I was asked this question:- how do we really access "healthy" vegetarian eating? Do we really know what we are eating? Where do our real "proteins, nutrients, Vitamins" come from? Do "Healthy Vegetarian" signs from veg stalls really signify "Healthy"? Well, my answer is, the choice is always ours to make and determine what we think "Healthy" is. Of course, being a vegetarian, we are always spoilt for choices and at times it is good to go really healthy and green for a good cleanse of our body.<br />
I am really glad to have the opportunity to attend a dinner session at Artisan Boulangerie (a.k.a. ABC).<br />
Note that ABC is not a "Pure" vegetarian/vegan place, but they have recently re-invented their menu to include quite a number of Vegetarian/Vegan options in their menu.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The new menu has indication of "vegetarian" dishes. However, I have noted that most contain cheese which may have "rennet" in them, so do read through the ingredients if you are a strict vegan/vegetarian! Also, some may have Onion/garlic in their sauce, so the safest to eat would be the salads, juices, smoothies and breads.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Fresh Juices ($6.40 - $8.50)</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TZu3ClsiPbw/Vl_LYyYhw2I/AAAAAAAADgM/p4DDl3v3cbc/s1600/20151201_193039.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="266" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-TZu3ClsiPbw/Vl_LYyYhw2I/AAAAAAAADgM/p4DDl3v3cbc/s320/20151201_193039.jpg" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
We had the ABC (Apple, Beetroot & Carrot) juice and a Kale Cucumber Apple Juice. I have never had kale before so it was a surprise as the blend was great! The taste wasn't "raw" as I've expected it to be. Instead it was fresh, and blended well with apple. Moreover, i felt full after this juice!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I have to admit that I was rather ignorant on the knowledge of kale though I have heard about it before.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
According to reports, "Kale" is well known as a "healthiest" food in the world, and was supposed to be number 1 with multiple benefits. I think if we have been eating a lot of mock meats or processed foods, its good for a cleansing session at times.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Olive Bread</b></div>

<b> Famous French Baguette</b></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All of ABC's pastries and breads are baked freshly daily and contains no preservatives, additives and enhancers. In addition, they are handmade with imported french flour and premium European Butter. Again, because butter is used, the breads are not vegan-friendly. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I think they would go well with soups or even coffee. Personally I prefer the Olive bread but it was a little oily. Then again, olive oil is supposed to be a healthier oil? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Again, the skeptical me thought that the kale salad wouldn't be good, but the blend with lemon vinaigrette was awesome. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Quinoa is also another superfood that some people eat this as a replacement to rice, and it is filling as well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Loads of greens and yummy avocado. Would be better if served warmed.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
It is heartening to know that ABC has a "foodbank" donation program everyday for their unsold breads which are donated to the needy families as part of its corporate social responsibility. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I do hope to see more veg items on its menu to promote a healthier choice for their patrons.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Personally, not your normal $3 economical place to go on a daily basis, but its an alternative and choice for us to go at times to have a cleanse. I will definitely keep in mind of including "kale" in my homemade salads.</div>

Ms Veg has previously mentioned that Kwan Inn Veg Restaurant is opening this month and since i work nearby, decided to go over for lunch this week.<br />
Located along the same road as North South East West Veg Restaurant, this new opening does pose as a strong competitor to North South East West, but they serve very different dishes to begin with.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Restaurant Front</b></div>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Quite easy to spot as you pass by the road, it is not very accessible for drivers as there are no public carparks nearby. The nearest is behind the petrol station which is 5-10mins walk away.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Inside the Restaurant</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

It is not a very huge place, but should be able to accommodate up to 50 pax, and its suitable for a small party for cozy meet up or celebrations.<br />
<br />
The menu has a wide selection of chinese cuisines and Ms Veg decided to try 3 dishes with the soup of the day.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Veg Goose $12</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3fWw0S-iIfI/Vla2YrKtEHI/AAAAAAAADfM/wN3XJOWq-ZA/s1600/IMG_2463.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3fWw0S-iIfI/Vla2YrKtEHI/AAAAAAAADfM/wN3XJOWq-ZA/s320/IMG_2463.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
This is not your usual mock meat. The "Goose" was made of Beancurd skins. It is unknown if "coloring" was used but it does reminds me of the same dish I had during the “金山格" days. 新佛界 The restaurant at jalan besar serves this dish as well. Would be better if there's mushrooms between the beancurd sheets. Nonetheless, its a yummy dish.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: orange;">Pumpkin Brown Rice $9</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RftUrCqJPac/Vla2WzuOBeI/AAAAAAAADeo/K6Fax30Q_mQ/s1600/IMG_2461.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="180" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-RftUrCqJPac/Vla2WzuOBeI/AAAAAAAADeo/K6Fax30Q_mQ/s320/IMG_2461.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
I think this is the most worth dish of the day! The pumpkim was really soft and sweet and tasted perfect with the brown rice. Yums. </div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: purple;">Soup of the Day *8 Treasures Soup $10</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Drools~ Super yummy as the tonics were brewed for hours bringing out the ultimate flavors of this yummy soup. Homemade feel and you will love it even more on rainy days.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #38761d;">Fresh Kai Lan with Ginger Sauce $10</span></b></div>

Nothing can go wrong with Green Veg except that it was a little oily. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Overall it was a wonderful yummy experience at Kwan Inn Veg Restaurant and Ms Veg will certainly revisit again. Note that we only ordered all the "Small" dishes but this 三菜一汤 is more than enough for a family of 4~. Recommended to call before going on weekends as they do have supportive regular customers. Ms Veg hopes they will have brisk business too!</div>

Ms Veg spotted the back of the namecard with linkage to "Xin Man Yuan", "MiaoYi" and "Clover 8" so it is unknown if they are all linked. :)<br />

Real Hut has been around for quite some time and Ms Veg has never been there until one day I brought my parents there. Am pleasantly surprised to find a good eatery near my work place! The Real Hut is conceived the passion of the owners who have the desire to create plant based diet for better lifestyles, harmony and spiritual peace. I was a little skeptical initially as I thought the food served would be bland and super healthy. Ms veg has to admit that I am not a very healthy eater to be begin with. Am surprised that not only the food served at The Real Hut is tasty, there is little or no Mock used as well!<div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Soup was Carrot and Potato soup. Quite bland, but I guess no MSG was used. It would be good if the western soup could be served for the burger instead of this clear soup.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
The last was Truffle Fries, which I didnt have a picture! The truffle fries was simply yummy. Yes its deep fried, but it left a yummy impression. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
All in All, it was a nice cozy experience dining at The Real Hut. I must admit the prices are not very economical, The 3 of us spent $36 for 3 meals and a side. However, for an ocassional cleanse and healthy eating (minus the fried stuff), its worth a visit.</div>

I've long heard about Soyato but never had a chance to try it. Hence am very excited when I heard about their new SG50 flavours!<div>
Soyato is a local ice cream business created by a couple <span style="background-color: white; color: #3d3d3d; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">Alan and Verlene</span> in Singapore. Instead of the normal Milk, Cream, Eggs and Palm oil found in ice cream, Soyato comprise of Soy Bean Milk, Prebiotic Inulin, Soy Bean Oils instead. Its basically Vegan, Guilt and Fat Free!</div>
<div>
<div>
Am surprised that Soyato has gone International with stores selling them in France and Papua New Guinea too!</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: red;">New SG 50 Flavors!</span></b></div>

<div>
New flavors comprise of Salted Gula Melaka Coconut, Red Velvet, Chocolate Orange with Orange Peel and Red Bean Coconut.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ms Veg's favorite of all is the Gula Melaka as it blends well with the coconut flavor! If you are into red velvet cake, the red velvet ice cream taste is very distinct</div>
<div>
One thing I noticed was all these ice cream were not too sweet as they use nothing but natural ingredients only. It is very suitable for children! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
The Original Designs of the Soyato Boxes are very attractive too. Each Pint is 473ML, Costs $10.50 Per pint! Cup Size are available for their Artisal flavors as well (100ML @ $3 per cup)</div>
<div>

<div>
There's also free delivery locally for orders $25 and above. I Cant wait to try the Wickedly Chocolate Flavor too!</div>

If you are an ice cream fanatic but still worried about the weight gain, Soyato is a good alternative.</div>

Here's a new post for Elemen元素 after a long hiatus. Elemen元素 is a newly open vegetarian restaurant and Ms Veg is really lucky to have gone there twice in a week. Both were to celebrate my upcoming birthday.<div>
This Restaurant is operated as a subsidiary of the Koufu Management and its heartening to see brisk business despite minimal or no media attention. I was alerted to this place by a friend who works nearby and he decided to buy me a meal here.</div>

This is one strong competitor for Sufood! Elemen serves either a 5 or 8 course meal - the same as how it works for Sufood. Theres quite a wide selection of choices for each category and unlike sufood that specializes more in Italian Vegetarian food, Elemen ventures more into fusion cusine where they offer Japanese, Chinese and Western choices. The 5 course meal costs $23.80++ per pax while the 8 course meal costs $32.80++ per pax. The 8 course meal is slightly more expensive compared to Sufood. Note to all: Some dishes may contain Dairy, Garlic, Onions. It is not written in the menu. Hence you may want to inform them of your dietary requirements before ordering.<br />

I was told that the broth was made from tomatoes and no additional seasoning was added. It can be a little bland but suitable for people who prefer light meals. The Radish was well cooked and Tofu had a little Chinese Tea Taste.</div>

I like the way this is presented as its unique. The glutinous rice is in a heart shape! Taste is alright, as the pumpkin is well cooked with the sauce. Note that the glutinous rice is sticky and may get stucked in your tooth :) My fav in this dish was the Mushrooms.</div>

It has been a wonderful experience at Elemen元素.

Green dot has been in the market for the last couple of years and they first started business in Schools. I actually remembered them on Kiss 92 last time.<br />
They have finally opened at Paya Lebar Square, giving Miss Veg another option to veg food since there are only 2 veg stalls in the Paya Lebar area. Ms Veg is really greatful and happy! Been eating almost once a week there!<br />

Ms Veg didnt know that they currently still have stalls operating in Schools, and one of them being Ms Veg's sec sch CCHSM! Really happy to see this. We hope Green Dot Open more outlets esp. in the west to continue their love for this planet! What made an impression was the aunties working here - yes they hire many aunties/ mummies/ old uncles who spoke nicely and explain to us whats nice, and service was amazing. Note that this restaurant adopt the return your tray campaign after you are done eating which i think is ok as we do not pay service charge. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
You can even like them on Facebook, at times they like to write about their staff which I think is heart warming, the aunties are like mommies to the young guys who are the owners of this business! I look forward to more meals here! </div>

Nature Cafe has been around for quite some time and my sister clarice has been raving about it for the longest time. However, I didnt head down to the west previously so I was really delighted when they decided to open a second outlet in the EAST.<br />
And Ms Veg finally found time to go during lunch time this week. This cafe is located in a new building thats located along Kallang Ave, the nearest MRT is Lavender.<br />
I really like the interior design! From their logo itself, Owl seems to be their lucky charm and you can spot some owls in the shop as well.<br />
The interior deco provides a tranquil and cool setting and we were really surprised and delighted that its was full house on a normal week day.<br />

The noodles taste really good! It was chewy and spicy to my liking. Vegetables are steamed and served with oyster sauce. There are many pieces of Char Siew (also known as roasted pork). The Wanton is ok, but i felt that more ingredients can be added. Nonetheless, its a good noodle and soup is tasty. Nothing much to hiam.<br />

Mr Tea ordered this Mexican Chop set which comes with a soup. There are 2 other places in Singapore that serve Mexican Steak - One is North South East West, the other is Simple Food. We find that focus for this set is the pasta instead of the meat, as the meat is rather small. The pasta, on the other hand, is cooked to perfection. The meat was ok, as its made from Mock Meat with cheese on top. Soup is a well blend of mushroom and cream. Portion is rather big in our opinion.<br />

This sotong ball is the normal mock meat that you can find in the market, the sauce is so-so, but ms veg thinks they can improved further by using sambal chili sauce instead of the sweet chili sauce.<br />

Ok ms veg is really Slow in reviews because she has been away from Singapore! And FINALLY I had a chance to embark on my "Italian food experience" after so many rave reviews! I did go to Sufood earlier when their first launched to witness their Star Pizza record breaking journey and I have been missing their Pizza since.<br />
Its been 4 months plus since opening and it is still fully packed every day. I had to call a week before to reserve seats for a meal on a Monday. Sufood is really successful in their launch with many media invites, reports and even radio promo!<br />
Sufood boasts a meat free dining concept from one of the biggest chain operator from Taiwan. This casual bistro style 140-seat restaurant in Singapore is their first outside of Taiwan where they already have 18 outlets.<br />

<br /></div>
So I was really excited being there finally with Michy & Cherry.<br />
You can take a look at their comprehensive Menu available from their website: http://www.sufood.com.sg/<br />
<br />
Everyone would definitely go for the Set Menu as it is more worth ala carte. A set meal costs $25++ per pax, and it comes with the Appetizer, Bread, Salad, Soup, Main, Dessert & Drink. They can cater to your specific needs if you require them to serve Lacto-Ovo or Vegan style. I went for Lacto-Ovo Style.<br />

This is a standard appetizer which comprises of poached Japanese yuca Root (I think its "山药") in blueberry sauce, Snowflake Greens in a special sesame like sauce and a cherry tomato Jello. From the pic as you can see, we were told to eat from the Right to the left, as the tastes goes from light to strong. This is the first i've had such an appetizer, so it all tasted normal, sweetness of the blueberry. a little raw of the greens and a bit of sour for the cherry tomato. What wowed me was the little glass of Vinegar like drink, which i think is tasty.</div>

Michy thinks the cake is a little small. I think that there should be "real banana" in the case as the banana taste was a little too light.<br />
<br />
It was a fine experience. Service was good, and they serve really fast.<br />
I will be back again to try other mains for sure. For $25+, be prepared for a really FULL meal.<br />
Oh BTW, Sufood is offering 1-1 deals from 2.30PM.. good deal!<br />

Hey Peeps! Clover 8 has opened! This is a new bistro cafe operating under Miaoyi, which is under the Xin Man Yuan group.<br />
It is definitely good news to see more vegetarian/vegan dining places available that cater to our needs! What I heard is the Xin Man Yuan group is planning to open a high-end restaurant (located somewhere in orchard) soon to cater to provide a wholesome experience of Vegetarian Fine Dining. Other than this piece of good news, Xin Man Yuan is also planning to venture into the catering world where they would be providing catering services on the go!<br />
<br />
Clover, on the other hand, provides a bistro, cafe style setting at more affordable prices that caters to the masses. We get to<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Istok Web'; font-size: 16px;"> enjoy Thai, Vietnamese, Italian cuisines as well as traditional chinese dim sum made by the Hong Kong Chef. I understand that they have a real Thai chef doing the thai dishes too!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Istok Web'; font-size: 16px;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Istok Web'; font-size: 16px;">The Shop Front: located on Level 1 - makes it easy to find as its among the new cluster of cafes opening in that area. If you have not gone to Kallang Leisure Park for a long time, they are undergoing a facelift - new shops are opening! </span><br />

Clean & Green! I guess due to the fact that they just opened a couple of days ago, there isnt much crowd yet even though today is the 1st day of the lunar month. I hope Clover 8 will be here to stay and more people will get to know them though.<br />

Its delightful to see Clover 8 offering quite a variety of dishes - ranging from Thai to Vietnamese to Local cuisines. They even have the Dim Sum that we tried from Xin Man Yuan. Price Range from $4.80 onwards.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #cc0000;">Dim Sum $4.80</span></b></div>

There are 4 types of Dim Sum for selection, not as much as Xin Man Yuan, but able to satisfy my craving for Siew Mai.<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #0c343d;">Chicken Rice Set $7.80</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t9BvFbSd-tU/VEoIgUdf1aI/AAAAAAAADFU/V75Hhr2ODEg/s1600/IMG_0464.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-t9BvFbSd-tU/VEoIgUdf1aI/AAAAAAAADFU/V75Hhr2ODEg/s1600/IMG_0464.JPG" height="240" width="320" /></a></div>
The Chicken Rice Set comes with Soup and Drink (we had lemongrass drink). Without the soup and drink costs $5.80. The Rice itself is good, but I find the portion a little small, so my dad would require an additional bowl of rice. "Chicken" is not too bad, which I believe is actually made of mock meat, Soup is ok, not too saltish. I could make out that it was brewed with corn and carrots so theres a little sweetness in it. Note that it is not known if the rice is cooked with butter or margarine. If you are Vegan, do check with them prior to ordering.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #073763;">Pad Thai $5.80</span></b></div>

I've been craving for Thai food for the longest time since my last time to Bangkok was many months back. This version of pad thai did not disappoint, the sweetness and sour in the stir fried kway teow tastes just nice.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="color: #741b47;">Vegan Toasted Ravioli $5.80</span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

This is my very first time trying Ravioli, so there is no comparison for me, personally, it tasted okay, except that the sauce - which i could not make out what it was did not really blend well with the ravioli.The ingredients comprises of mushrooms and basil - which is a strong herb, some may not like the taste of it.<br />
<br />
I will want to be back after chatting with one of the owners there, as what impressed me were the variety of western dishes there - all of which are vegan! I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me as I saw "Cheese" but was informed that the "cheese" used is actually "yeast" made.<br />
There's even squid ink pasta - which i will try someday - not sure if your mouth would be blacken by the sauce or not though!<br />
<br />
Now at least there's a new place to eat before watching a sports game or concert!<br />

Edna mentioned to us that she didnt want to boast about her parents' cooking, but she find they cook really well!

Hello All, we are finally back in Singapore and again we are always excited about new openings. It feels good that we are having a lot more options these days! Just this year alone, we have SuFood.. which ms veg has not went, we also have beyond veggie! I was informed of this new opening at Chinatown and decided to head down because the word "dim sum" attracted me! Other than lingzhi, there aren't many places that serve vegetarian dim sum.<br />
<br />
So here we are for the yummy dim sum!<br />

Quite classy, and definitely can sit a lot more people than the Miao Yi rest at coronation plaza. I was told they can fit 35-40 big round tables!<br />

I had the buffet previously, but the dishes were not a lot, as compared to Lotus. However, they do allow you to order additional 6 types of their famous dim sum, which makes the buffet price worth.<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is the list of dim sum that comes with the buffet. One may order up to 3 times.</div>

They too serve ala carte dishes, mushroom steamboat pot (@$58 per pot for 3-4pax)<br />

I was craving for the Har Gao (aka shrimp dumpling) so i decided to bring my parents for a second round today. We decided to order ala carte dimsum, which comes in a separate dim sum menu:<br />

If you ask me what made me go back to this place within a week - its this har gao! Its sooo good, im already drooling again as I type. The skin is wonderfully thin, and ingredients aplenty. There's even veg prawn in it, making it chewy and unforgettable. I have not eaten anything of such taste before!</div>

We ate a total of 10 dim sum dishes, tea, and the braised peanuts (appetizer, too yummy that we finished eating before i remember to snap a pic!) and it cost us a total of $70, which i find rather reasonable.<br />
<br />
As they are just newly open, so they are still making adjustments and changes to their dim sum menu, and i was truly happy that i need not travel to HK for the dim sum as this can temporary satisfy my craving for now!<br />
<br />
I was lucky to be able to chat with one of the owners and found that this new restaurant is under the same "MiaoYi" group, so some of the dishes (e.g the famous suckling pig) are also available here!<br />
Another piece of good news is that they are going to open a cafe style (vegan + vegetarian) outlet at Kallang Leisure Park this coming October.<br />

I have been really ignorant as Beyond Veggie has been around for a couple of years in the Malaysian market. It was a recent trip to Johor Bahru (KSL City Shopping Centre) then I found this place. Recently they opened a franchise in Singapore and I am pleasantly surprised.<br />
I read up about them, and found that they have mentioned in their website as well, they are a meatless/vegetarian outlet, but NOT vegan, as some dishes do contain, milk and eggs (diary products). I believe the cakes that they serve are not eggless too. So, if you are vegan, do enquire before heading down.<br />
Anyway, i'm combining both my JB visit and the Singapore visit in this post since the menu is the same, except for price differences.<br />
It is not known how and why Secret Recipe decided to spin off a vegetarian dining place but looking at the number of outlets/franchises they have in Malaysia, i guess the market has been receptive and supportive.<br />

This is the interior of the Singapore Outlet. It is definitely not easy to find, as it is located within the vicinity of the private houses in Bukit Timah, Hillcrest Road. Although they are just opened, it was actually quite crowded and a reservation is recommended on a weekend. I think it is good at other than Miao Yi, at least there is another option for vegetarians <span style="text-align: center;">in this Area.</span><br />

They serve a wide range of food, including chinese and western cuisine.<br />

We tried this in KSL previously. I have no idea why it is called Yunnan style. Nonetheless, it didnt taste very spicy, and the bee hoon wasnt too dry. Served with Mushroom Satay.</div>

We tried 2 types of Tofu so far. I can't explain what's mahogany, but in chinese its called "香椿". A little strong to taste in the sauce, so some people may not like it. I personally find the Tofu in Malaysia is better than Tofu in Singapore though. The gravy has a lot of mushrooms and the veg version of "lard", also known as 花形 made from soy protein.</div>

We ordered this at both outlets because this dish really impressed me. The gravy is really yums. I ordered it again in Singapore because I wanted to intro it to my mum. She is an expert in Assam Fish, so she really enjoyed this version, but she termed it as nonya style compared to the real "assam". The curd cutlets are made from Beancurd sheets, which is actually similar to the mock "Fish". This is my favorite dish to date!</div>

Ok we are finally here after many bloggers have talked about them. Anyway, in my previous post on FB, the owners of this cafe used to operate at TaiSeng (Also known as Hanyi). They have since moved to Bukit Merah, and rebranded with "boneless kitchen". That makes them stand out is their specialty in Korean Food.<br />

Not very accessible via MRT, but there are many buses along this area. It is located right beside the Nature Cafe which has been around for some time. So if you are tired of the norm chinese dishes, walk right next door for a change.</div>

This was the supposedly nicely done menu. However, what was puzzling was that many cuisines are no longer available. Hence stick to korean mains, which is usually available. </div>

I tried the Kimchi Dumplings, which I think was ok to taste. However, I wonder if the skin was too thick, some parts of the flour was uncooked. Perhaps they could consider using wanton skin next time.</div>

This is recommended as the vegetables are really fresh and uncooked. And we need to stir the vegetables to cook. It was a fun experience. In addition, this time they use raw egg, which tastes more authentic. They used to serve with a fried egg. If you are vegan, do inform them beforehand.<br />
<br />
Here's the namecard of the boneless kitchen.<br />

<br />
The pricing is still within the affordable range and you will be surprised the chef is actually a young girl. However, if you are asking for service, do be mindful that they can be rather inflexible to changes. I wanted to get their special Root Beer (Without float) but was rejected because they couldn't serve without ice cream. I had a colleague who was unhappy previously when she asked for chili or more sauce for the bibimbap but was rejected as well and given a reason that the sauce is appropriately proportioned.<br />
Well, I certainly guess this was a insistence to provide ISO standard dishes.<br />
<br />
Last but not least, it is rare to find korean food for vegetarians in singapore, so boneless kitchen has done it.<br />

As Miss Veg has not been in SG for quite some time, I have been missing out on Greenzilla and other new shops opening in SG!<br />
Anyway, there are quite a number of good places to hunt around here in Beijing, China.<br />
If you happen to come visit, this is a restaurant that is hard to miss.<br />
KingsJoy, just open for the past 1 over years has received rave reviews on the web and won the best restaurant award by Timeout.<br />
The exterior design itself has won its exquisite selling notion, bringing vegetarianism to a higher level - a lifestyle.<br />
While it bears the same branding as the King Join Restaurant in Taiwan, the cuisine served here is different. Taiwan's outlet focused on the more traditional pastries that were popular in the olden dynasties while the Beijing outlet focused on modern new cuisine.<br />
Do note that the minimum spending per pax is close to RMB 400, which is around SGD 80. I have not had any meals that expensive before!<br />

I realized that quite a number of restaurants in China use the Ipad as a Menu. I guess most places in SG will use that soon!<br />
<br />
As we didnt know what to order, the waitress suggested that we order the set menu. So my parents ordered the RMB 399 Set while I settled for Ala Carte.<br />
If you are really keen to try almost everything, settle for the set, which comes with 8 items.<br />
I wont review item by item, but my chef mum loves every single dish served. She said you will never get to eat this in Singapore at all.<br />

This is the supposed "Cold Dish", comprises of 3 dishes: green beans mixed with olive, Yummy Raddish with Bean sauce and Steam pumpkin. To be honest, I was never a fan of such food, but wow, they were made to almost perfection, and I actually liked it!<br />

Yuan Xiang still serves the best carrot cake to date. Unfortunately, we had to cancel this order as this comprise of garlic. Do note that it is not written in the menu. I've already feedback to the management on this. They do serve Dairy, Onion, Garlic, Chives (the 5 pungent roots) products in their dishes. However, the waitress will be very patient to advise which are the ones to advise.<br />

Cooked Chestnut - On the House</div>
<br />
What won me over was the butler kind service provided. You do felt like a royal dining here as the waitress would change your side plate as and when it is dirty, change your napkin immediately if it drops on the floor etc. The attention to detail and willingness to listen to feedback was impressive.<br />
<br />
We paid a total of RMB 1248 for the entire meal, which is close to SGD 90 per pax, but its an experience of a lifetime. May not visit them that often, but as a vegetarian, do pamper yourself while you can!<br />
<br />
BTW, if you are really planning to go, do call beforehand as its quite fully booked on most days. Also, if you go on the 1st or 15th of the lunar month, call and inform them that you are eating because it is the 1st or 15th. The 2nd person enjoys 50% off! Do note that set meals are only available for 2 pax and above, and you are required to order the same set.<br />
