Onn Vegetarian @ Kallang

I remember a couple of months back "passerby" asked me to try out the food at the stall near to Kallang MRT via my chatbox. Since there are many "passerby"s here, i'm not able to identify the exact you. I would like to thank you for the good recommendation. My friend and I totally enjoyed it.

This stall is located in a coffee shop at the foot of the HDB blks beside the MRT. Do note that there are 2 coffee shops here, so this stall is inside the coffee shop that is facing the main road.

Onn Vegetarian sells a wide variety of food ranging from Dry Noodles to laksa, kway chap, dumpling soups as well as some tze char dishes. Business is good perhaps there isn't much vegetarian places nearby.

Stall front

Quite a big stall and I was glad to see many customers eat from their stall.

Wanton Noodles $3

I tried this Wanton Mee as I've heard it was not bad. Indeed, the sauce was not bad.. noodles was chewy as well. I personally liked the cha siew as it was quite well marinated. As for the wantons, the ingredients wasn't a lot and I was eating more skin than ingredients, which I thought was a pity. The stall owner shared with us that the wanton was homemade by themselves. Overall, the taste was okay, but I hope that there would be more ingredients in future.

Kway Tiao Soup $3

Gwennie had kway tiao soup which comprises of beancurd, fish slices, vegetables and beansprouts. I liked it as well as the soup was very tasty.

Dumpling Soup $4

The picture of this was very tempting and we both loved dumplings. Sadly this was not handmade but brought from suppliers. The taste is pretty standard which the ingredients comprise of celery, cabbage, mushrooms.

Popcorn Chicken $5

This chicken is crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Super delicious and it looked like popcorn chicken.

Location: G5 Food House, Blk 5 Upper Boon Keng Road #01-01 (5 mins walk from Kallang MRT station)

Opening Hours: 7am to 8.30pm (Closed on Sundays)

Inflight Meal - Singapore Airlines

Here's another inflight meal that I had when I went beijing for work early this year.
Do note that if you are travelling, most airlines cater to vegetarians, however do make your reservations for vegetarian food on board when you purchase your ticket.
Anyway, for Singapore Airlines, they have quite a number of vegetarian options available. I usually request for Oriental Vegetarian. They do have vegan or indian vegetarian meals as well.

Inflight - SG - BJ

One thing good about making early meal reservations is that you are usually the first to be served before the rest. The only drawback is that we do not have any menu to choose, so you are to eat what you are served. I guess there are different meals served on each different flight route.

The Main

I was happy with the main as it was what I like! The main comprises of stir fried yee mee with mock meat, vegetables and carrots. The mock meat is known as "猪肝" (aka pig's liver) cooked in veg oyster sauce. If you are a fan of liver, you can get this from most vegetarian suppliers. My mum's version is usually with lots of ginger slices cooked in dark soy sauce.

Salad

For the salad, I was served with tomatoes, asparagus, bambooshoots as well as abalone mushrooms. All are well steamed and lightly marinated with salt. Quite refreshing.

Dessert

I love the dessert most. This is lychee jello with orange. The jello wasn't too sweet.

I'm surprised that I ate the entire meal, perhaps it was suitable for me. Now im anticipating for the next meal on my next flight..SQ has not disappointed me so far.. If you have had other better flight meals, do take some pictures and post a review! I'm contactable at my email on the right.

Nian Ci Guan Yin Vegetarian Stall @ Geylang

Nian Ci has relocated to Geylang, same blk as Guan Yin Vegetarian, but different coffee shop! The soups are back in action! YAY!

New Stall Look

Other than serving the usual mixed vegetables rice and economical bee hoon, the tze char and dry mee is a must try. I've never tried 炖饭 (steamed rice) before and decided to give it a try.

"Dun Fan" $4

There's choice of Brown or White Rice. I Opted for the brown rice as it is healthier. The ingredients comprises of cooked veg mock meat with yam and steamed with brown rice. It is served with cabbage on the side. The yam was very well cooked and not too soggy. I couldnt make out what the mock meat was but I guess its suppose to represent roast meat. Aint too bad since this was served hot.

Dry Noodles $3

Gwennie loves the wanton dry noodles of all time. Portion is big and the sauce for the noodles is really good. I personally find it better and cheaper than Vege Sensations. One thing good is, the stall owner is very generous with the ingredients!

The stall owner realised that I was going to write for her, so she asked me to go back again today so that she can cook her specialty for me to photograph. I was touched by her sincerity and generosity so I went back a second time.

Nasi Briyani $3.50

Auntie cooked this specially for me, nasi briyani! She learnt this from a malay friend previously. This is dedicated to sunnietart since she is a mega supporter of nasi briyani! Please note that if you visit her stall the portion would not be so big. Served with spicy curry mutton, chicken cutlets and tempeh. Auntie wanted to try something special so she mixed chicken with mutton. The chicken was okay, but was a bit bland. Tempeh and rice tasted good with the curry sauce. Anyway, auntie would be changing the chicken to cereal prawn as I personally do not think the chicken and mutton complement. Definitely value for money. I can't wait to try her cereal prawns.

Other Must trys: Homemade Yong Tau Foo

Diet: Vegan, no eggs

Location: Block 134, Geylang East Ave 1

Opening Hours: Unknown

Su Man Yuan Vegetarian Stall @ Plaza Singapura

Finally a post on Su Man Yuan @ PS! The stall is located in the Kopitiam food court. I'm really happy that there is this stall for vegetarians now. In the past i used to think that orchard road is the most vegetarian unfriendly place. These days, its good to see certain changes and with the long queues during lunchtime, I really hope Su Man Yuan can stay for as long as possible.

What I've always like about su man yuan is the quality assurance they've got. So far my favourite is their stall at Suntec which even has Brown Rice Porridge!

The food at Marine Parade is not bad as well.

At PS, there is also quite a selection of the dishes daily as well as tze char dishes.

I ate laksa on this day as I wanted something really spicy.

Laksa $3.30

In comparison with other stalls, the ingredients here are lesser. Some places do have Beancurd and Char Siew included. Here they only gave me a few slices of Tao Pok and Fish balls. The soup is good but fattening as lots of coconut milk is added.

Do note that during their busy lunch hour, they would not be able to cook the tze char dishes for you, hence you can only choose to eat the mixed veg rice. I didn't mind that since there is free soup!

Diet: No Eggs, but some dishes do serve with mayo on top.

Other dishes which I like: Lor Mee

Location: 68, Orchard Road, Plaza Singapura, Level 6

Iwannagetstuffed Vegetarian Restaurant @ Kallang Leisure (素芳斋) *CLOSED DOWN*

*CLOSED DOWN* I heard they relocated to Tampines, but not serving veg anymore.
I read on the opening of this new veg buffet place on the forum and I decided to try it out before Jay's concert last saturday. I was surpised by the shop space as I was thinking it might just be a small little cafe. The restaurant itself occupies approximately 3 shop space and can accomodate as much as 40 pax. It is seeing a reasonable crowd on event days. Layout of the restaurant is simple and bright.

It is a new and interesting concept for the entire place to offer nothing BUT only BUFFET. I met one of the manager who used to be working with loving hut. He mentioned that everything is vegan, with minimal mock items and there is no garlic & onion in all dishes. I even asked him for the ala carte menu, but there was none. The catch here is, there is no specific timing for buffet, meaning, as what the name suggests "Iwannagetstuffed", you can eat as long as you want, as much as you want. For a price this low, it is recommended that you starve yourself for 3 days, and from the opening till closing time, sit there and get stuffed.

One Price $12.90

I have no idea if there is any Child Price, so you may want to call before going. This is just some of the dishes and they vary every day. There is a blend of 20 over East and West cusines available.

Salad Bar

My own Salad creation

I loved how the braised peanuts taste!

Eddie's creations. The dishes include fried noodles, Spagetti, Olive Fried Rice, Hash Browns, Tofu, veg and even Chwee Kuey, Chee Cheong Fun included.

Diet: Vegan, No Onions & Garlic

All in all, this is not a bad choice to come but do not expect interesting dishes like those served at quality hotel. I personally like it as they keep changing the dishes. This is more of our usual fare but do note that drinks are not inclusive. You may just get plain water like we did.
Since it has only opened for a month, there is still room for improvement and I do hope later on they may have ala-carte menus available.

Yummy Green @ BEDOK

Please note that Yummy green has shifted to Bedok! New Add: Blk 537 #01-511 Bedok North Street 3 Singapore 460537
 
One of the nights I met gwennie there for a meal before a movie. This cafe is operated by the same owner of Simple Food as well as a sister company of Neno Bali which I've covered earlier.
The simple food @ Tampines sell more of the usual chinese & western cusines while this cafe focus more on Vegetarian Japanese and western dishes.
Yummy Green has been around quite sometime in this building and has given vegetarians at least a choice since the there is no vegetarian stalls in the food court.

Menu

The cafe capacity is pretty small and can accomodate up to 20 pax. There is some menu on the wall. They serve quite a range of japanese and western cusines.
Do note that a lot of mock items are use in most dishes. You may opt for tofu dishes if you are not into mock meat.

Karage Cha Soba $8.80

Comes with a soup for this set. Comprises of Adegashi Tofu, Salad, Karage & Cold Soba noodles. I LOVE the noodles a lot! I guess its because we can't take this noodles in most japanese places since the dip is usually made from fish. As for the karage, It is basically "盐酥鸡" deep fried. Nothing much about it, but the portion is definitely big!

Curry Katsu Don Rice $7.80

Gwen loves japanese curry a lot so she ordered this dish. The chicken chop is similar to those that is sold at Ci Hang. Curry is rather authentic and I guess its because japanese curry doesn't comprise of coconut milk, the curry taste is thicker. Aint too bad a dish.
I think the salads should be served in vinegar instead of mayo. Rather fattening since both dishes have deep-fried items. Hence do be careful of what you order if you are into healthy eating!

Ci Hang Vegetarian @ Aljunid (慈航中西素食)

This is another cafe located near the Aljunid MRT. Ci Hang has been around for as long as I can remember. It should be more than a decade to date. They were famous for the western cuisine when they first started as many places did not have western meals then. Ci Hang has since successfully transformed into a very organic-friendly outlet selling organic set meals that attracted many people. It is always fully packed during dinner.

*Picture taken from Crystal's blog*

There were many people on a Tuesday night. Everything is self-service from the counter. Ci Hang also sells quite a variety of organic products and vegetarian dried foods.

Chicken Chop $8

I was not in the organic mode as love the chicken chop best! It is a big serving. There are 3 chicken meat dipped in a nice batter and deep fried, and served with a homemade gravy. The sides include tomato beans and french fries. You may also request to change french fries to mash potato. As everything is fried, you can't exactly consider this as healthy. To me, its just a craving that happens once in a blue moon! heehee. Zi Zai Zhai vegetarian also has this, but the price is slightly cheaper.

Assam Fish Rice $5

Clare's favourite dish. She can eat this almost every week! I must say that this is definitely a healthier version than Zi Zai. Zi Zai's assam curry is more oily that the one at Ci Hang. This assam fish is not spicy and is sour enough to make you ask for more! The ingredients comprise of Mock Fish, Tomato, Brinjals and Lady Fingers. Dipping the Popodum into the gravy is seeedapp too!

Spagetti $6

This version is healthy as the sauce is made of tomato base with cabbage, mock meats and mushrooms.

Mash Potato $2

Ci Hang serves the best Mash potato to date as we can eat up the entire scoop of potatoes with the gravy without feeling guilty at all!

All in all, ci hang is one of the places you can go to in the evenings for dinner if you are in the east. Price wise is rather mid-range. I have no idea if any diary products are used or not. Definitely egg-less.
