Vegetarian Alert!!! Discounts!!!

Was flipping through the Chinese Newspaper this morning (14 Jan 2008) when a notice by the Spore Buddhist Lodge (bottom right of pg7 main section) caught my attention.

It reminds us that calendar day 15th Jan 2008 is the Buddha's Enlightenment Day.

Besides publishing its celebration events for the day, it also encouraged us to take vegetarian food. At the bottom of the notice, there are discount coupons of participating vegetarian restaurants giving 10% discounts*! We are encouraged to use the discount coupons at the participating restaurants from 14th Jan to 25th Mar 2008. (*However, pls note that some restaurants may have its own terms & conditions e.g. only cash payment with use of discount coupon etc, you have to clarify 1st bf use)

As the discount coupons from the picture may be too small for your eye, let me introduce the participating restaurants below:

At the end of the notice, Spore Buddhist Lodge is also encouraging other interested vegetarian restuarants to join in this discount drive by contacting them at tel: 6737 2630.

This is really a cause for Joy as during this festive period, we are likely to have gatherings & it would be good that we can have vegetarian food instead of meat (avoid killing for food) and yet have some savings from the discounts. :-)
So, why not suggest your friends to have gatherings at the vegetarian restaurants?

Lets hope more vegetarian restaurants will join in the discount drive or even non-vegetarian restaurants to give discount for their vegetarian dishes:-)

#Generally, Spore Buddhist Lodge will publish such notices with discount coupons before any celebration day or event, do continue to keep a lookout for it or you may call their tel: 6737 2630 to find out more info.

Cheers:-)
