Black Ruby (Melbourne), Australia
Black Ruby is certainly a little gem located in Carlton North. We visited Black Ruby for breakfast and have decided that we would definitely go back for more. They are quite generous with their portion and ingredients, though we found the coconut pancake to be a little too sweet due to too much maple syrup on the side.

the toast was a little too overdone but the omellete was almost at perfection.Cappucino $3.20

MG'S Cafe (Sri Hartamas) - BEST assam laksa
I frequent MG Cafe for the wonderful assam laksa, which arguably is more authentic than the assam laksa found elsewhere, even the non-vegetarian version! Portion is just right for one and pricing is not too pricey, with the assam laksa going at $6.80. For those that are looking a vegetarian bakery without eggs added, this is the place to frequent! =) Despite being a coffee fanatic recently, I would not recommend the moka pot coffee as the taste was nothing tremendously special for the price that was charged, i think it was RM16 per pot (equals to about 5 1/2 espresso shot glasses).

SS2/4, Petaling Jaya, Cendol Stall
"Cendol and Rojak" is best indulged under a big tree. A similar comparison would be where ang mohs prefer to sit on the sidewalk where they enjoy a cup of foamy cappucino. This rojak stall is right accross the road opposite the Taman Bahagia LRT station and has tables and chairs under trees making it very windy and cooling to enjoy an afternoon snack! Telll the owner that you are a vegetarian and he will omit the sotong and prawns.

A variety of dishes can be found here. Butter mushrooms are crispy, belacan brinjal not too hot but taste is delicious and Thai tofu has got just the correct sourishness. Szechuan ramen has a good blend of suace to go with the noodles. Price is not too expensive and definitely worth a try.

Restoran Sayur-sayuran Kuan Yin
Just give a call to the restaurant to place your orders and allow them half an hour before you go and collect your food. So convenient especially when you want to avoid the crowd in the restaurant during peak hours. The chicken rice is almost like the real thing, very delicious, not that I still crave for the real meat, but sometimes you just want something tasty.

Mushroom Culture
This is our second visit to this restaurant and being on a Sunday, the restaurant is really crowded with almost all the tables occupied. We made our orders and are quite happy that we did not have to wait too long for the food to arrive. Taiwan Style Monkey Head Mushrooms is still our favorite but it is a bit too salty today as maybe the chef is too overworked and has lost a bit of his standard. Homemade bean curd is delicious too with just the right taste of the sourish sauce.

Takashimaya Vegetarian Food
Did not expect to find any vegetarian food in Takashimaya Shopping Mall in Orchard Road when I went shopping there. Anyway, when it was time for lunch, I went down to the basement where there is a food court and after scouting around,was really happy to find this Vegetarian Food stall with a good variety of dishes and noodles. The food was tasty and price was reasonable.

Restaurant Vegetarian Happiness
This restaurant offers buffet style vegetarian food. A choice of three types of dishes costs RM4 with free flow of soup on the house. The menu is changed daily. As the food being offered today is not so appealing, we opted for ala carte menu. I still find the food very oily and too much of starch. A complimentary plate of fruits was offered at the end of our meal.
