Amazing

This place is so so good. Loads of options from the buffet, and all of it was amazing. There’s actually too much to choose from, so you might want to do a few trips here if you’re in Penang for a few days! It’s so cheap as well, plus they do Pao Buns, we had the peanut one and it was very tasty! Just be aware that mock meats will push the price up, but they’re so worth and it and still works out to be cheap as!

Pros: Amazing vegan food, Cheap, Loads of options

Cons: Too much food to choose from!

all vegan buffet

i came back here twice! the food is really yummy! the more mock meat you take the more expensive it'll get!
I always paid between 7 and 11 RM.
some dishes are quite spicy...
but all in all it's very yummy and a nice change to get some cooked veggies in.

(the sweet and sour fake chicken was the best!!)

Pros: cheap, yummy, good service, fresh veggies

Cons: some dishes are super spicy or a bit too greasy

Great value

A very friendly spot that is super local and authentic. It is buffet style and you help yourself to lots of different options, Mock meats, veg, curries and rice and then pay at the cashier. The server was very friendly and confirmed there was no egg or dairy in anything. The food was all delicious and so cheap. We got 2 big plates of food, 2 bowls of curry and 2 bottles of water for only 25!

Tasty and cheap

Came here for lunch and it was quite busy, people left soon after finishing though so we were able to grab a seat. There is a lot of variety on the buffet which made it hard to choose but it's nice to get the options. I'm always a bit worried about meat alternatives in places like this but all the ones I tried were very tasty and didn't have a soggy texture like other places I've been. I was quite surprised at how flavourful and fresh tasting the food was (: the staff are very friendly and helped us get some curried steam buns, they were SO good. Really glad we came here.
They seem to price by the variety you have and the amount so it's hard to figure out how much your plate will cost before paying but ours seemed really cheap for the amount.
Lots of locals and take away option is a nice touch. If it was closer to where we were staying I'd have gone back for a take away pot for my hotel room.

Pros: Vegan, Tasty, Friendly

Große Auswahl an Essen

Alles vegetarisch und zum Teil auch veganes. Man kann sich sein Essen selbst zusammen stellen. Das Essen ist nicht scharf gewürzt und schmeckt gut

Pros: Buffet - große Auswahl , Günstiges Essen

Cons: Essen ist vorgekocht und nicht unbedingt heiss

Cheap and healthy(ish)

Had a good meal here for just 10RM. Filled up from the buffet with brown rice, broccoli, spinach, potato chips, a curry pao and two large tofu steaks.
Tasted good and there was still loads of choice at midday although food wasn’t hot (the pao was as youcollect them straight from the steamer).

Would recommend if you’re in the area and want a good filling lunch to keep you going to all day!

Pros: All vegan , Self-service , Friendly staff

Very decent buffet restaurant

I always seem to be too late for their brown rice. But other than that, it's pretty good; lots of choice, good tastes. The usual randomness with the prices, but it stays cheap. You need quite a big big plate to get to 14RM. Usually is 7 to 9RM. Not the very cleanest, but that doesn't bother me.

not much flavour, cold, manly sweet taste

Nice people and place!
I like that you can get vegan stuff here.
But food without garlic, onion misses a lot of flavour for me. Many things tasted just sweet and i don't want too much extra sugar in my food. We came around 11:40 and my noodles and thr spinach were already cold.
For some people a good choice but not for me.

Cheap buffet

I had the buffet and it was tasty and cheap.

FYI:
The mock meat thingies cost extra. I was unaware of that so I just piled everything on top of each other. The lady at the cashier had the poke around in my plate with a chopstick to figure out how much I should pay.

I would advise people to take two plates if you're going for bigger portion!

Variedad local frita

Muy rica la comida, mucha variedad y pagas por cantidad. Lo malo es la falta de comida fresca como ensaladas o frutas,todo es frito

Great prices but be early!

This place is very basic but has good veggie food (buffet style). We enjoyed our food but were a bit disappointed by the fact that most of it was cold. Due to the amount of people, we didn't doubt the freshness of it (they just don't have a good heating system to keep it warm) so we filled up our plates and sat down. Friendly staff, we had big piles of food and all together was about 40 ringgit (3 people). Tomorrow morning we will go there as soon as it opens so the food will be warm😄

Pros: Nice food for cheap, Friendly staff, City centre

Cons: Lots of buffet options were cold

Yum

Came here almost everyday. The plates are small so you will end up with a mountain of food😄they have lots to choose from and it’s always delicious. I paid for 10rm for a big plate and my boyfriend had heaps more and paid 14rm for his which was so filling no dinner was needed that night😄

Pros: Tasty, Cheap , Lots of different foods to choose from

Had the veg buffet. It's a bit pricy for the portion. 14rm for two moderately filled plates of food (plates are kinda small). The food is too sweet for my liking but having said that, I had a thin coconut milk curry with kaffir lime leaves, curry leaves (I think), potato, mock chicken and pumpkin which was really nice. Super fragrant. I like that I could enjoy local south East Asian curries without having to eat meat. They also had Penang specialties like lor mee and curry mee. Good variety but of course, most items were cooked with oil. They have brown rice which I appreciated. Overall, if you're in a pinch, it's not a bad place. There are lots of locals enjoying Saturday lunch here so I assume the food is circulated quickly.

Pros: Variety , Can try veg versions of local food

Cons: Kinda very pricy

We need more places like this!

large variety of of fake meats, curries and vegetables. Buffet
style, filling up your plate in usually €2 or under. I always go for the massaman style curry with some kind of tofu and potatoes. along with the tons of sauteed dark green and other veggis. when your traveling, you need your veg!! +cheap drinks..ice coffees and teas..Fresh juices(ask
for no sugar if you don't want).
They also have fresh steamed buns filled with fake meat
or sweet with peanut or red bean!

If you want brown rice come before noon! the earlier you
come better chances of having hot food also. another downer, they don't use garlic or onions.

So good!

Tons of dishes to choose from. I filled my entire plate with mock meat and vegetables and it came to 15 MYR. A steal, given how much I had on my plate. The dishes are fresh and the staff is nice. The woman at the front examines your food and tells you how much it is. She’s very serious about it, and takes her tongs out to dig through your plate - I got a kick out of her, she was pretty hilarious. I also got a Veggie Big Pao in the steamer to take with me, and they were filled with fake pork; it was one of the best steamed buns I’ve had in SE Asia! A great Buddhist buffet to check out if you’re in Georgetown!

Pros: Fresh food, Great steamed buns , Lots of variety

Cons: Soy milk is way too sweet

Favourite place in Penang

I came here 5 times and loved the food. There is so much stuff to try, the staff is very friendly and it is super cheap. The location is very basic, not a fancy restaurant, but i only care about the food. I'd always come back!

Pros: many options, buffet

Yummy food, price potentially high

I came here twice during my stay due to the ease and variety offered. Not only do they have mock meats, noodles, and tofu products, but they have an abundance of vegetables!!! Steamed broccoli, cauliflower (both not drenched in sauce or oil), pumpkin, bok choy, cabbage, and other unidentifiable but tasty options. Veggie lovers rejoice!!

I got a huge plateful (on the verge of things falling off) with no rice underneath, just vegetables and such. I paid around 14 R both times. Pricy for a meal, but considering I got a huge load of veggies, I feel ok about it!

Would recommend.
