Vegan options but average - Edit
The fact that the vegans options were clearly marked was a definite plus however it was just average. I ordered the 'Hungry Monk' with pad thai noodles instead of rice. Aesthetically, it wasn't pretty but that is not essential by any means. However, it was fairly bland with a garlic-y taste that stayed in my mouth. The tofu was, to be fair, absolutely delicious but the vegetables were smothered by the pool of sauce which left the dish without a sense of freshness. The noodles were fine but nothing special for a 'noodle bar'. Probably wouldn't go again. It seems more like a takeout than a sit-in.
Read moreDo bear in mind it's pretty nosiy which is understandable as the kitchen is so close but it can make communication a little hard so it's not a talk-y kinda dinner spot.
Pros: Friendly, attentive staff , Very hot food straight from the kitchen , Labelled vegan options
Cons: Basic and slightly bland sauce

Fabulous noodle bar, great service. - Edit
We popped in for the lunchtime special which works out just under £8 for a main meal and drink. Many dishes can be made vegan with the choice of tofu and then one or two of those are gluten free. I had the vegan, gluten free rice with veg and tofu. I couldn't eat the soy sauce, so I asked for salt and was also offered sriracha sauce, it took my meal to the next level and was absolutely delicious. The service was outstanding, the food bought to us very quickly and was very yummy. I'll definitely be back. One of my new favourites in Exeter!

Great place - Edit
The Hungry Monk and Yasai Yakisoba were so delicious that we ordered these dishes again on our second trip. The Hungry Monk can be ordered with noodles instead of rice - we tried both and both were really good. The yakisoba noodles are vegan :) Even though the tables are all shared and it is an open, small space, it was still easy to converse in our groups.

No other Chinese food compares! - Edit
I've been visiting Tyepyedong for years. I used to go for lunch there at least once a week when I was at college. I've never had better Chinese food anywhere; it's so good, always freshly cooked and seriously quick!
Read moreHaving only become a vegan a few months I had never really realised how vegan friendly they are, and have recently noticed that they mark all of their vegan items as well as vegetarian ones. Turns out I'd been eating vegan food there all along!
Their Yasai Sweet and Sour is amazing, as is their Yasai Yakisoba and their soups are delicious too. Basically, whatever you choose, it will be great, and cheap too!
Pros: Fresh, Quick, Cheap
Cons: Can get very busy, Small restaurant, Desserts not so great

Used this place a few times for lunch, which it is great for. They do a set price lunch which includes a drink and has a good variety of vegan options. Service is very quick so ideal for lunch. Tasty food and friendly staff.
