This vegetarian restaurant has been around since 2007, and if that isn’t a testament to its food, we don’t know what is. Located just steps from the iconic Buddha Tooth Relic Temple, this eatery has a menu that could easily convert any carnivore. The restaurant’s motto, meatless does not mean tasteless, is echoed in many of the menu items, which are made with plant-based meat alternatives that are just as good, if not better than the original.

The Marmite Vegetarian Pork Ribs are a chef specialty, and made with soy and yeast extract. While it may not sound very appealing, the combination of rich soy meat and earthy Marmite makes for a delectable combination - perfect as a snack or as an accompaniment to some freshly steamed jasmine rice.

Another dish worth trying is the Vegetarian Peking Duck. The clever use of fresh yam fried to crisp perfection to make the “duck meat” and the delicious taste of the of the dish itself are enough to convince you that you’re chowing down on real meat. Hankering for some treasures of the sea? Fret not, as they’ve got that on the menu as well. Try the Thai Sauce Cod Fish - a spicy sour dish of mock fish meat doused in a Thai-inspired dressing.
