The atmosphere is comfortable and bright.
Self-service - pick up and return your meals yourself.
There are paid parking spaces on the roadside.
Scan the code to order and pay at the counter.
I ordered the BBQ pork rice $55; it looks better in the photo… the toppings are a great addition, could have used a bit more 🤣.
BBQ pork dry fried rice noodles $129; the noodles are chewy and taste pretty good, I recommend it.
Black pepper dry mixed rice $99; the sauce is very sweet, I like it!
Angelica leaf meatball soup $39; definitely worth ordering!! It has quite a few ingredients, and to me, it feels like tofu skin soup?
Salt and pepper green beans $59, broccoli $69.
I’ve never bought vegetables and feel it's a bit expensive 🤣.

Lemon tea $49, the lemonade is on the stronger side.
Thai milk tea $65; it’s really good and smooth, just sweet enough.
Sour sweet water $55. I can’t quite describe the special flavor 🙂‍↔️.

Compared to Heat Wave Island, I think Heat Wave Small Island is slightly better in taste? 🤣
It’s suitable to go when there are fewer people;
but for a larger crowd, I still recommend Heat Wave Island! 😝 The seating is more appropriate.

📍Location: Taichung. North District (Yichung Commercial Circle)
After visiting once, I immediately wanted to bring friends and family to eat again! 😍

I wanted to eat out and enjoy something delicious, but when I could only choose vegetarian options, the choices for eating out were really limited.
If I also wanted to keep it within a certain price range, I often ended up with options like small noodle stands. Sometimes, I had to look for seemingly upscale vegetarian restaurants to find good food.

But at this place!
For under $300, there are great dishes and unlimited small side dishes!
No wonder the whole place is filled with customers, with people queuing up, even though there’s not a single piece of meat on the menu!

You can order by scanning a code, but they also have a physical menu available.
Actually, for general information (pricing, spiciness, recommended items, etc.), the physical menu is already sufficient. However, the staff still proactively asked: “Have you been here before? Would you like an introduction?”

I thought it would just be a simple introduction, but the staff member’s tone was calm and friendly, not rushed at all. It didn’t take long, but they explained the menu very clearly.
I was really impressed by the quality of training this employee had (great job), and it wasn't just for me; they treated later customers the same way – introducing things in a simple, structured, and clear manner.

This time I ordered:
🍝 Flaxseed Dry Noodle $169
🫒 Three-flavor Crispy Fried Bean Curd (large) $79
The small dishes, congee, and drinks are all self-service and unlimited.
They don’t even charge a service fee; I felt that the value was great and affordable. 🥹

The food came out very quickly.
As soon as I completed my order, I turned around to grab small dishes, and by the time I settled in, my food was already here. The crispy fried bean curd was a bit delayed, but it was served just in time for me to take a few photos.

🍽️ Main dishes:
🍜 The dry noodles had a great chewy texture and a unique flavor. Since I was craving hot noodles and dishes that day, I was somewhat disappointed that the vegetable leaves were raw.

Overall, it was a mix of hot and cold in the dry noodles. The flavor was good, but it didn’t fully meet my expectations for that day.

The crispy fried bean curd deserves full stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It was extremely crispy! So crispy that I once thought I was eating fried chicken.
The sauce was perfectly balanced – sweet, sour, and salty – truly addictive, and the only downside was that I accidentally ordered a large size. 🥹
I didn’t have enough appetite for all that…
But that’s a dilemma; one person could really enjoy the large size, while the small size may not be sufficient. 🥹

🥤 Unlimited self-service small dishes, congee, and drinks.
Looking around at the customers, I could tell many were familiar with the place, as the first step after ordering was to grab as many small dishes as possible!

There were many varieties of small dishes available, four kinds in total.
When a certain item was running low, the staff would proactively replace it with new dishes. I even got some fresh seaweed later, but unfortunately, I was too full to eat more.

The congee was more like a dessert (hot).
It was already cooked soft and had a mildly sweet flavor.
If you usually consume very sweet food, you might find it not sweet enough.
However, if you can generally handle unsweetened drinks, it was probably around unsweetened plus a little sugar sweetness.
Today they offered millet congee with quinoa, which looked even healthier!

I chose lightly sweetened black tea for my drink.
It was quite similar to the congee, tasting almost unsweetened.

Overall, it was much healthier than I imagined.
The staff also promptly cleaned up the self-service area.

If I had to point out any drawbacks,
I think it would be that the soup spoon didn’t match the size of the bowl.
The bowls offered were quite small, but the soup spoon was still standard size.
Trying to scoop up a spoonful of congee with both ingredients and broth inevitably resulted in a full spoon (since the ingredients are at the bottom), but during the process of pouring into the bowl, the liquid often arrived first, while the ingredients lagged behind.

This was probably the only obvious downside I noticed.

As for utensils, you can self-serve trays and also self-recycle them.

The space inside isn’t large; it can fit about 25–30 people when squeezed together, but the area is clean and neat and doesn’t feel old-fashioned.
There were many young people in the restaurant, some even dining with children.
Many first-time customers, so I heard the staff explaining the menu repeatedly. But even if a customer accidentally placed an order without scanning, the staff didn’t get upset; instead, they immediately decided to help with the order and settle the payment.
I think this kind of service is excellent, especially compared to where many waitstaff insist on traditional protocols even when it’s unnecessary!

In summary, I would be willing to visit again! If I wanted to have a small gathering with vegetarian friends, this might be my top choice so far.

The atmosphere is comfortable.
Located at Eslite Bookstore 480, 1st floor.
A DIY noodle soup shop? 😂
There are several base soups with an additional $15 option.
I chose the Southeast Asian curry for an extra $15.
The broth is rich and delicious; highly recommended!
The Thai tom yum is very spicy if you choose the mild option‼️
You must try the crispy snacks for $25; I like to soak them a little in the broth so they remain crunchy.
Other dishes range from $15 to $30, and there are fresh vegetables to choose from.
If you want to feel full, you'll probably need around $250, which I think is just right 😂
You get a few pieces of vegetables and a few slices of green pepper like that.

There is a restroom on the first floor, which is very convenient!

Han Lai Vegetarian Restaurant is an amazing vegetarian restaurant. Each dish is incredibly exquisite, showcasing the ingredients to their fullest extent and completely overturning my perceptions of vegetarian food.

As someone who usually eats meat, I was also attracted by the cuisine here, such as the Angelica Soup, which is very rich and has a wonderful strong aroma of angelica. The mildly spicy hot pot rice has rich layers and is full of fragrance. The baked rice cake with the dish has a chewy texture and rich flavor, which is fantastic. The desserts are also impressive, with the taro sago being incredibly rich!

The environment is spacious and comfortable, making it perfect for dining with friends or entertaining guests.

Today I ordered a lot again, and it was also my first time eating at this place. First of all, I want to say that the rice noodle with taro and the cold tofu are delicious!! The cold tofu is topped with plenty of vegetarian fluff, and the rice noodles contain lots of shredded taro. After eating, you can really feel that the owner must have put a lot of heart into it! The sesame oil noodles are also very good! I think the seaweed serving is quite large.

The fragrant chive fried rice I feel is a bit too dry, and the wonton soup I think is an average in between ordinary and good.

Overall, I would rate it 4.5 stars! I think it's quite tasty! But not super delicious! If I'm passing by the area again, I would probably go eat there again!

❤️ Sen Don Vegetarian Fried Rice Specialty Store
🔸 Specializes in fried rice, each grain distinct, with a strong wok flavor
🔸 No seating available in-store, takeout only

Hello everyone, I'm Pei, a vegetarian 🫶
I specialize in recommending vegetarian restaurants that serve lacto-ovo vegetarian options and those that offer vegetarian options on their menu.
You can click on my profile to explore more vegetarian recommendations! 😍

In the early days, Taipei's first funeral parlor was established near the Xingtian Temple station, leading to an increase in vegetarian dining options in the surrounding area.
Sen Don is located on Songjiang Road in the Jinzhou Street food district. It's a small establishment specializing in various flavors of vegetarian fried rice and fried udon. There is no seating, takeout only (the owner will ask if you eat eggs), and the wait time is not long.

This time, I ordered the Hawaiian fried rice, where the rice grains are distinct and not sticky at all.
The fried rice includes three-color beans, cabbage, and vegetarian meat floss. While the ingredients are simple, the wok flavor is strong, and the sweetness and sourness of the pineapple blend perfectly together. It tastes really high-quality and remains delicious even when cold. 😭
I recommend ordering a slight spiciness for your first time; don't easily challenge the medium spiciness. I consider myself someone who can handle spicy food, but the medium spice really was painful and made my nose run endlessly.
Overall, it's really delicious, a perfect portion for one!

🔸 Cash payment only (not sure if street payment options are still available).

Today I ordered a variety of dishes, and I think several of them are super delicious.
Recommendation 1: Lion's mane mushroom (Mexican flavor) - The seasoning from the restaurant is really super delicious, and the flavor is very fragrant! When you bite into it, the spicy aroma bursts out! Plus, the lion's mane mushroom is very tender and easy to chew! Everyone should definitely order this dish if you come!

Recommendation 2: Egg tofu and enoki mushrooms - The egg tofu is also very tender! Very delicious; I added the enoki mushrooms because I really like them, hahaha.

The other dishes are also very good! But they don't stand out as much as the ones mentioned above, and I think you can tell the owner to use a little less powder! The owner seems to add a lot, so it can be quite salty!

Today I visited a famous barbecue restaurant in Huwei. We ordered a bowl of hot pot noodle soup, some blanched greens, and a lot of skewers.
For the skewers, I recommend the bacon rolls; the bacon is very tasty, and you can choose to wrap asparagus or enoki mushrooms in it. I think the hot pot noodle soup is also quite good.
I had a bit of purple rice cake, but I found it a bit hard, and every vegetable skewer had eggplant, so there was no need to order an eggplant skewer!
There aren't many seats here, but we were lucky to find a spot just as we arrived!
It might be because there are many vegetarian skewer shops in Taichung; although this one is good, it didn't impress me too much.

This was my first time eating Korean vegetarian cuisine in my life. I don’t think the prices of the dishes were too high. Today, I ordered: Korean kimchi rice cake stew, kimchi-flavored bibimbap, and kimchi pancakes.

In my opinion, the ranking is: pancakes > bibimbap > rice cake stew. The texture of the pancakes reminded me of the oyster omelet I used to eat when I had meat; it was crispy and fluffy!? In short, it was super delicious! I also thought the bibimbap was very tasty—there were plenty of ingredients and variety, and the crispy rice was also very good! The rice cake stew was tasty too, but compared to the first two, it didn’t impress me as much.

In conclusion, this is a Korean vegetarian restaurant that is worth eating at and I would visit again!

This is at the Beibin location, where you can take a walk by the seaside before or after your meal, and many roadside parking spots are free of charge. The nearby parking lots charge higher fees... use them with caution.

"Little Rabbit" features a minimalist, hipster style, and the meals are nutritious, healthy, and generously portioned! The menu at the Beibin location is similar to that of the original Little Rabbit Kitchen, and I initially thought there would be a distinction, as there are brunch options and their signature free-range chicken hot pot.

The quality of the set meals is consistent. However, at Little Rabbit, I recommend the individual hot pot; what's fantastic is that the vegetables are all self-served and made from fresh, original ingredients, and they offer a variety of less common vegetables. The special dipping sauces are more refined in flavor compared to those at typical hot pot restaurants. The dining environment is minimalist yet cozy, with plant decorations that help relax the mood, and the service is friendly and attentive.

The prices… are a bit high…
