★★★★★a year agoThere are two vegetarian restaurants in this temple but this time I visited the ground floor one with amazing stew sliced hairy melon and other great dishes with very affordable price. Highly recommended.

★★★★★8 years agoTwo vegetarian restaurants here- fantastic food. If you enter the complex from the higher main road through the temple you'll need to make your way down towards the community/senior center on the lower road. Delicious all-vegetarian Chinese food, lots of mushroom, veggie, and mock meat options. The pumpkin rolls for dessert are phenomenal.
