"Checked this place out with one of my friends after a tiring day exploring the city and getting rained on lots. Super lovely and laidback yet also really attentive staff. Really appreciated the dedicated vegan menu as it makes it much easier to look through wished the main ingredients were listed on the menu, as some dish titles were a little vague and I wasn't sure what to order! Though I asked one of the waiters and he was really helpful and could list off the bat what was in the dishes, so it wasn't too much trouble. I ended up ordering the vegan Wee Buddha curry. The portion sizes were massive and that alone justified the price point in my opinion, it took me like over an hour to finish my dish. Even moreso though, the food tasted wonderful the veggies were super fresh and flavourful, and the rice had that perfect sticky texture that restaurants don't always get right. The food was piping hot when it arrived and I had to let it cool for quite a while, which tends to be a fairly reliable indicator of quality, in my experience at least and it was true on this occasion for sure. We also didn't have to wait very long at all for our food either. Also worth a mention, the vibe and decor of the place is really nice relaxing! And not usually a fan of music in the background, but it was an appropriate volume and whoever was on playlist duty was working overtime because the songs slapped, it was tune after tune. Overall, I'm pretty glad I sorted out where we'd eat in advance of our trip, as this place didn't tend to come up on any suggested Maps searches or in recommendations I was looking at for veggie/vegan food. Which I'm really surprised about given how good it is, and the really decent number of dishes on offer. Underrated I guess? Hope it gets some more hype! <3"
