Was feeling under the weather so I headed into Chinatown to buy some ginkgo. The first supermarket I saw was in this complex so I was happy to see that Veggie House was right above it.
Ordered the oyster mushrooms with lemon grass sauce, spicy veggie crispy beef and Buddha Delight. I was with my Jewish boyfriend so it was nice to be at an Asian place where he could actually choose anything off the menu. He loved the coconut juice he ordered!
The chef came out to explain some of the dishes to my boyfriend because he had a hard time understanding how veggie meat is a thing, which was nice. The crispy beef is really nice and crispy with a nice mild heat, the oyster mushrooms were inhaled and all those veggies were just the thing to get me feeling a lot better. Food came with small servings of white rice (but you can pick brown) and we did not get through it all. If you are not much of an eater a portion is enough per person.
I ordered the strawberry cheesecake for dessert and was pleasantly surprised to see it was a douhua style confection. Yummy tofu pudding!
Great friendly service and fun kitsch ambience!
