Review: We lived in the center of KLCC . It was very walkable, about 10 minutes, through the mall, and then 5 minutes walk to the monastery. It was difficult to find the place because there were temples/prayers in the front, but it was located in the back of the monastery. The food buffets are very amazing--so many new things to try everyday with the faux soy meat, beancurds, vegetables, vegan drumstick, noodles, soups, porridge, and salad (burgers/pita like sandwich)! They even have vegan sweet baked goods and dimsum related foods, which is a must to bring these joys back to your place, and the fruits are amazingly prepped and at cheaper value compared to grocery stores in KLCC! Currently from the U.S. & Denmark, we, without a high doubt, enjoy eating out there few times a week. The value was very more than affordable than ever. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who is vegan and vegetarian. They do not use MSG or oil at all--they use brown sugar and alternatives to healthy cooking, which is amazing. Usually a plate of rice with those many dishes to try costs about 3 - 6.50 myr depending on how much you take. Besides, you save a lot if you bring your own plastic container!

Do check out our photos shown above! Enjoy!

 
Pros: Fabulous Cheap Foods * New Things to Try Every weekday * Friendly Chefs (staff)
Cons: Closed Weekends * No Napkins * No Air Conditioning, but Fan

Review: This is a wonderful place to eat, though we suggest coming early. We arrived at 1:40 pm, and weren't able to take full advantage, as many items had run out. The food we did manage to eat was still fresh and delicious, with lots of wonderful options. It's sort of cafeteria style. Load up. No matter how much you take, it won't cost much. This was the cheapest meal we've ever eaten, as two of us dined with two full plates, dessert (fruit) and cocunut milk for 10 RM. No point in relating what we ate, as it changes, but it was all good. No super atmosphere here (though the temple in front is beautiful), with long metal tables, but that doesn't hurt the place. It's well worth a visit. By the way, this is about 500m walk from the Petronas towers.
 
Pros: food * amazing value *
