❤️ This is a new vegetarian restaurant that opened at the end of August, featuring a shop run by Master Chen from Daxi. However, the quality of the staff still needs improvement...

📍 Although this place is located on Boai Street in the Shulin Night Market, there are many seats available for dining (about 30-40 people), and it also provides a restroom for dine-in, as well as a waiting area for takeout.
🚗 It is suggested to park at the Yongqi parking lot at the entrance of the Shulin Night Market (20 NT dollars per hour). It might take about 7-8 minutes (approximately 600 meters) to walk there.
🏍️ I saw many scooters parked outside the shop temporarily, but I'm not sure if it's legal.
💬 This restaurant uses an online QR code for ordering, but after ordering, there is no option for online payment; customers must pay in cash at the register.
The interior decor is simple, effectively managing the recycling area, dining area, and utensils section, which avoids a messy feeling. Customers are expected to recycle their utensils themselves, but it's still noticeable that some patrons do not recycle.
Outside the restaurant, there is a waiting area for takeout customers, ensuring that it doesn't create a chaotic feeling outside the shop.
However, it took us a full 20 minutes from ordering to picking up our food (thankfully, we had the receipt as proof..). I was a bit surprised—is this really a reasonable serving speed? When asking the staff, they seemed unclear about how to respond to this situation; it was somewhat baffling at the moment. I would suggest that the restaurant address the sequence of serving food to avoid customers waiting too long after ordering.

The first time trying vegetarian noodles! I ordered the Tao Yuan braised sauce with noodles and a bottle of winter melon milk. I took it to go because it was a bit hot in the dining area.
The Tao Yuan braised sauce had mushrooms, red and white radishes, konjac, baby corn, broccoli, and a lot of tofu! The seasoning was a bit sweet but very flavorful!
The plain noodles were very delicious! The chili added a lot to it!
The winter melon milk was a little sweet, and the milk flavor was not very pronounced. Overall, the price was a bit high.

A pure vegan breakfast shop that sells whatever the boss and employees eat! 🥬🌱
A small shop by the street that only sells breakfast before 11:30.
In addition to pan-fried dumplings, there are various types of vegetable egg pancakes, and they use a flour batter for the pancakes. I will definitely want to try it next time I'm near!
🥘
Order items
🥟 Cabbage Pan-Fried Dumplings ($45) for a portion of six:
The main ingredient is carefully selected, using sweet high mountain cabbage.
This time I took it to go, and even after a while, I could still feel the crispy texture of the dumpling skin.
What surprised me most was the filling; in addition to cabbage, there was also carrot.
The texture of the cabbage was crunchy, and you could really taste the rich sweetness of the cabbage, which tasted quite different from regular cabbage.
✏️
Notes:
🔸 Cash only💰
🔸 The boss prepares the food quickly, and they seem to have the dumplings pre-packaged for takeout. As soon as I placed my order, the boss handed it to me and asked if I wanted extra sauce or chili packets.
Taipei Neihu - A very local vegan restaurant that offers rice and vegetable bento as well as options for hot pot, noodles, dumplings, and more. You can choose five-grain rice at no extra charge!
📍 Vegetarian Fragrant Vegetable Rice NT$85
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑
You can choose five types of vegetables, and the rice is five-grain rice. The portion size is just right, neither too much nor too little; if I eat like this every day, I might lose some weight! The tofu served is a generous piece! The stir-fried greens are okay, but I think the cabbage portion is a bit small. The stir-fried wood ear mushrooms with king oyster mushrooms are quite good!
▶️ Environment
🔹 Four tables for four people (three of the four-person tables have hot pot stoves), and two tables for two (one of which has a hot pot stove)
🔹 The decor has a very religious vibe (vegan, millennia, ethereal~~~) and there is a lot of clutter
🔹 Spicy pickled vegetables are available for self-service
🔹 Cutlery is self-service (please note that it’s in the same area as the recycling collection to avoid taking used ones)
🔹 The place has a bit of a pleasant aroma, filled with a Buddhist essence～
▶️ Friendly Reminder
🔹 Order first and check out
🔹 Cash only
🔹 After dining, please return the cutlery to the recycling area
▶️ Overall Evaluation
🔹 The lady who serves the vegetables feels a bit unfriendly and somewhat cool! There is a glass partition in between, so it’s advisable to speak up when ordering; I'm afraid she might not hear. The utensils and tables feel a bit sticky, and the food is acceptable, but the indoor environment is not as comfortable. They didn't have air conditioning that day, and it was a bit stuffy, so I would recommend taking the bento for takeout!
Hello everyone, I am the little frog 🐸
Miacucina is a vegetarian restaurant. Today, a friend invited me to try the restaurant in Nangsi, located on the second floor of Shin Kong Mitsukoshi near Zhongshan Station. It's very convenient for public transportation; you can get there by taking exit 2 from Zhongshan Station.
For the vegetarian options, you can customize to include eggs and dairy or go fully vegan. There is a minimum order of one dish or one drink, and the dining time is limited to 90 minutes.
⭐️ Blue Cheese Poached Egg Bacon Pasta $435
The poached egg is cold; when cut open, the yolk is somewhat cooked and not very runny… The creamy pasta is rich, sprinkled with blue cheese, and overall it tastes very creamy. The vegetarian bacon tastes a lot like mushrooms, accompanied by spinach and walnuts.
⭐️ Tomato Meat Sauce Wild Mushroom Risotto $425
The tomato flavor is very strong, with crushed tomatoes and onions, paired with roasted mushrooms. The creamy risotto has a perfect balance of softness.
⭐️ Black Truffle Cream Mushroom Pasta $455
This is also a very rich and creamy mushroom pasta, with the addition of black truffle, which gives it an exceptional aroma. Compared to a simple cream flavor, this pasta stands out with its truffle addition. If you like truffle, you should order this; they give a generous amount of mushrooms.
⭐️ Ganache Berry Pancake $445
The pancake dough is very crispy, with a small amount of strawberries and blueberries, sprinkled with almond slices and drizzled with chocolate sauce, making it a sweet pancake. There is quite a bit of chocolate sauce, and although the strawberries and blueberries provide a slight tartness, it still feels a bit sweet overall.
⭐️ Mia's favorite Strawberry Walnut Salad $350
This is a fruit salad ordered by my friend, which we did not share. She said it was delicious, containing a variety of fruits and walnuts, and the portion is sufficient.
‼️ Conclusion:
The price of the dishes is not low, and there is a 10% service charge for dining in!
Maybe it’s because my usual diet is a bit lighter…
This restaurant is probably one of the more flavorful vegetarian places I’ve been to. The portion sizes are relatively generous… After having these dishes for dinner, I felt the meals were quite rich and heavy overall, so I prefer vegetarian dishes that are more refreshing in flavor… Personally, I have a lower willingness to return.
Thank you, Fooday🥳, for inspiring me to try more different cuisines🍽
🚩Location🧭
Located at the intersection of Yongxing Street and Zhongxing Road in Guoxing Township, Nantou County, right on the streets of Guoxing.
🪑About the overall atmosphere🎡
It's a small shop covered with iron sheets at a triangular window. Although there's a glass door separating the cooking area, the dining area inside doesn't have the air conditioning on. There are some vegetarian ingredients for sale inside.
💰About the pricing💰
I wanted to have breakfast on this day and thought vegetarian places usually sell fried noodles, so I came to check it out and they indeed had it. The price of 30 NT$ is considered average.
🍴About the meal☕
The fried noodles come in a generous portion, almost filling a whole lunch box, topped with some vegetarian stir-fry and chives. The noodles themselves have a nice chew to them, but there's a bit too little sauce, making them feel a bit dry. It might also be that the lack of sauce makes them taste quite bland and not salty enough; however, I still think that having a bit more sauce would make them taste better.
🤨Conclusion♥
Next time I have the chance to come back, I will tell the owner to add more sauce; if the texture improves, this could become a must-have breakfast for me whenever I pass by.
The Taipei Arena has opened many new restaurants. This one offers vegetarian and non-meat brunch. In addition to the meals, you can choose bread by the counter (you can also enter from the side door next to the counter to select and take out).
Cars can park in the underground parking lot of the Taipei Arena 🅿️, and there is a discount on parking fees with your purchase.
My thoughts after eating are that the food tasted just as I imagined ～ It wasn't very impressive, but the ingredients did seem quite fresh. The bread 🥯 next to the counter looked better than the meals 🤔. Unfortunately, since I booked in advance, we didn't get a table that could accommodate us, otherwise, we could have ordered a pizza 🍕. With two meals served, there wasn't enough space for even a jug of water on the table.
◽ Turkish Egg (Brunch Plate) $320
＞ The egg is soft-boiled, served with avocado, cheese cubes, and tomatoes.
＞ Comes with two pieces of bread for dipping in yogurt.
◽ North African Egg $260
＞ The red sauce is not overly salty and can be eaten on its own.
＞ Contains a lot of chickpeas.
＞ Comes with two pieces of bread.
＞ Not sure why one egg was less cooked while the other was fully cooked?
💰 There is a service charge.

The old house vegetarian restaurant on the north side of Lake Kawaguchi serves meals in the form of a Japanese-style double-decker bento, which can be changed if you need five spices. Use QR codes to order and pay without worrying about the language.
The Japanese vegetarian double-decker bento is ¥3500. The seasoning is very soft Japanese home-style taste, and it also comes with an English version of the dish introduction. You can feel the natural sweetness of Japanese vegetables themselves, highly recommended!
Yamanashi Prefecture is a famous wine producing area in Japan. I ordered a wine vinegar sparkling drink from a nearby famous winery and 15% apple juice. It was sour and sweet, very suitable for summer~
The space retains the original Japanese traditional style. There are not many seats and it is quite spacious and comfortable. It is very comfortable to sit in the corridor when the weather is good! Even in summer there is a bit of cool breeze.
The items in the souvenir shop are super cute, so be careful not to lose your mind 😂
Healthy light food(?) restaurant🍴
The store is located on the first floor of the building (Junlintianxia)
The signature color at the entrance is relatively low-key.
The sign at the door makes it look like a beverage shop😆😆
The lady boss was very kind. It was our first time here and she explained the menu to us carefully and warmly welcomed us🤗
The menu is diverse, vegetarians can dine with peace of mind🍴Even the tableware is carefully packed in the basket🧺
The meals are clean and you can tell they put a lot of care into it, making you feel at ease when eating😌
Order today:
➜Ton pilaf rice $110
The tendon meat is lean and not greasy, and the side dish of kelp sprouts is moist and smooth, delicious😋
➜Braised pork rice $40
The braised pork tastes delicate and not greasy, the portion is medium, and it’s just right.
➜Curry Udon $80
The curry taste is just right, not too rich and not too light. The udon noodles are soft and tender, but the udon noodles are not very tasty, so they are a bit separate from the curry, which is a pity🥲
The overall price is a little higher, but since the price is high and it is healthy food, it feels okay.
There is no burden on the body after eating one meal.
Taipei Zhongshan Junior High School - Bafang Yunji is a premium vegetarian version. It already has many branches all over the country. It is easy to enjoy affordable pasta dishes.
📍Big Wonton Noodles with Fresh Vegetables NT$85
🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑
There is coriander in the soup, so those who don't like it should be careful 😆 There are four wontons, and the fillings are mushrooms and green vegetables. The filling itself is full of flavor. I think the wonton skin is a bit thicker. The noodles are average and tasteless, a little chewy but not too soft. Sprinkled with seaweed and minced celery, the soup is very refreshing and not too burdensome to drink.
▶️ Environment
🔹The seats inside are large, but they are easily full during peak meal times
🔹The decoration style is very elegant and quite fashionable
🔹There is a sauce section, all of which are vegetarian.
🔹Self-pickup of tableware
▶️ Thoughtful reminder
🔹 If you are using it inside, it is recommended to find a seat first and put a sign saying "Already occupied" to reserve a seat.
🔹 You can order and pay directly with the machine, which supports various payments (credit card, LINE Pay) and can also swipe vehicles.
🔹 If you don’t want to operate the machine, you can also order food from the counter staff.
🔹 After you have checked out and paid, you can sit down directly and wait for your order to be called (there is a big screen)
🔹 Please recycle the tableware after finishing the meal.
▶️ Overall evaluation
🔹 It’s my first time to try Fangzhen Vegetarian Food🌱I didn’t expect it to be good. The food is light and healthy. If you usually need to eat vegetarian food, this restaurant is really a good choice, and the price is not too expensive.
