Soon Lee Vegetarian (Near Red Hill MRT Hawker Centre)


 
For one who likes to try interesting dishes, I can't help going to Soon Lee again whenever I visit the Redhill market to see if there are new specialty that they serve. And today, Stewed mutton noodles, Kambing (Traditional Indian) soup style.
Appetising-looking?
S says that she could smell the fragrance when I bring it back to the table. Rich with Satay sauce flavoured soup with slices of fried beancurb and mock mutton balls, the pasley and chilli enhanced its flavour. Can try again next time on menu! :-)
Located beside the market near RedHill MRT, it is the central corner stall at 1st stretch opposite the HDB shops.

Tian Yuan Vegetarian


This Vegetarian Supply Shop - Tian Yuan is hidden at level 2 (#02-23) of Fortune centre, right on 2nd stretch of shops up from the escalator. It takes abit of effort to look for it but luckily it has a bright sign.

It had also recently started selling hot food, making good uses of its supply from the shop.
It has on its menu Lei cha, Pumpkin rice, Buckwheat noodles, Vinegar Trotters, Spaghetti and this Tomato soup noodles which I ordered. 
Own made from fresh tomatoes, the soup was thick like spaghetti sauce just that it is more soupy.
Very appetising with much ingredients also very tomato spaghetti-alike. There are those tiny fresh mushrooms, cubes of potato and bean curd and some pea-beans. And my favourite Parsley leaves added fragrance to the dish. If the La-mian type of noodles was cooked longer to make it softer it could had added more points, but overall a nice dish to try for tomato lovers.:-)

Create Healthy Lifestyle

Hmm, long did not visit this healthy cafe, pop by at Bugis area again and decided to try some light healthy food but end up taking this heavy spicy Korean noodles set instead, drawn by its hand-made dumplings. Well, Ah Q abit,  in a healthy cafe, it should be healthier. :-P
It looks appetising with lots of ingredients per picture. Pity the dumplings had not matched my expectations and the noodles are more towards the taste of instant noodles but the soup was still towards healthier version of not as spicy as one imagined from look at picture.

Address: 190 Middle Road, Fortune Centre, #02-04, S(188979). It is located at Fortune Centre which is just a few minutes walk from the famous Kwan Im Temple at Waterloo street

Sunrise Bread Cafe

Ceased operation :-(

 Nice drawings on the wall at the small dining area of the cafe. Very relaxing to take afternoon tea environment on non busy and rushing day.
It has been for some time that the bakery has started introducing main course such as baked rice, curry rice, etc and what I tried that day, Noodles with bean sauce and Vegetarian Sharks' fin in Spinach soup.
Prices are quite reasonable at $2.50 for soup and $3.50 for the noodles. Taste else ok but I would love to try their baked rice next time. :-)

Located at level 1 of Fortune centre (190 Middle Road), at row of shops after Tracy Juice.

Lan Xiang Yuan Vegetarian


At opposite WestMall, there is a vegetarian stall,  Lan Xiang Yuan Vegetarian, at the Verinice coffee-shop which is the along the same HDB stretch where McDonald is.
They have a variety of Stir-fry dishes including Western food as well as economical rice dishes.
Decided to try their Stir-fry "Dry Horfun", well, it turned out to be wetter than visualised but luckily it has abit of the wok-feel that I was looking for, so still not too bad. And I am really grateful to find a vegetarian stall at the region. :-)

Vegan Burg (Raffles Place)



Finally, I managed to visit Vegan Burg 's outlet at Golden Shoe Carpark #01-28D, which is located more to the right of the building and hidden behind a printing shop (forgot the name).
It is a hidden cosy corner...
As it was my 1st time there, I didn't know that they had conveniently pre-packed and place the burgers (that comes in an army tin container), fries and other snacks, drinks on the front for people to pick & pay at the cashier so I did it the traditional way of ordering from the counter.
Tried their Creamy Pepper Shrooms set that came with a drink & seaweed fries at S$11.85. 
Very filling meal,
it was certainly much pricier than McDonald set but already a blessing for those who miss such burgers...
Patrons especially the Caucasians, come in later and crowded the cosy corner.
Raffles Place is certainly a good place with a population that can pay the price and support the business.
Check out their web which they are opening more outlets in Spore: http://www.veganburg.com/contact-us/

Loving Heart Cafe


The weather was so hot that this round appetite was greatly lost and though the wall menu at Loving Heart Cafe was enticing, we decided to go for simpler food and the porridge/congee caught our eyes.
We each ordered their seafood and traditional?  porridge/congee? Plain porridge/congee with a slight taste and the fried mock pieces and ginger slices and pasley added flavour to it. Ending with the crispy fried fritters, it is a good choice on a hot day. :-)
Next time, I may try their Indian dishes...

Located at Blk134, Geylang East Ave1, #01-219, same HDB block as Kwan inn Vegetarian Food.
