| - As a vegan, it is difficult to find decent places to eat, and Asian food tends to be most difficult. This place has to be the most accommodating I've experienced. The staff know what's in everything, making substitutions/omissions very easy. And they're happy to do it.
The food is delicious! Jhol momo, which is a bowl of wonderful, spicy curry soup and steamed dumplings... so good. Try it if you haven't, because it's killer. The veg Shangrila noodle dish is flavourful and spicy (not like other places where the vegetarian options, especially noodles, tend to be bland and flavourless). Ther veg chow mein is also very good. The veg hot and sour soup (sans egg) is perfect, as is the tofu manchurian. The portion size of that one could be a bit bigger for the price, but it's still delicious. But one thing you MUST order when you go, vegetarian, vegan or otherwise, is the crispy cauliflower. And you must try it with one of their hot sauces. It is super. Just a flavour explosion!
As mentioned, the service is accommodating, knowledgeable and attentive. There is a minimal wait for food most times we go. They are licensed, so you can have a Mill Street Organic or whatever you like with your meal. If you have not been to Shangrila, you MUST go. You won't be disappointed!
PS we found out they have karaoke every last Friday of the month, and we will definitely be checking that out!
