there are two restaurants, one in china town and one next to the travelodge, central bullring. both are excellent food and they do make their soya milk on site and I think the tofu as well. The menu is red for the meat section and green for the veg section. This has been the best most traditional vegan chinese I have eaten in the UK to date now. Service is wonderful, they are very happy and the lunch meal for £6.95 is excellent, offering an entree, main course and desert, it's worth every penny. My husband and I ate here 4 times in the 3 days we stayed in Birmingham and look forward to trying the rest of the dishes when we return. We ate spicy peppercorn tofu which was beautiful, lovely with additional touches of fried garlic coriander, chilli, red capsicum and sweet chilli sauce. The Wonton soup was lovelyy, a little salty but matched well with the noodles and dumplings. The Hor Fun noodles fried with chicken in the lunch menu were excellent, the chicken tasty and the noodles the best I've eaten in the UK and also freshly made on premises. the sesame prawn toast was enjoyable, seemed to be made with pumpkin and a nice entrée. I wasn't so impressed with the dumplings, but I much prefer to make my own so I'm pretty fussy. My husband loved the crispy aromatic duck and pancakes which were a large dish offered in a quarter or half dish. My favourite dish was the Pipa tofu, fried balls of mixed tofu and veg in a beautiful gravy and again incredibly cheap for the effort that went into the dish. The side order of Hor-fun was great for £2.60. sweet tofu desert and fried banana were beautiful. To be honest the food made me homesick for my old regular chinese veg restaurants. We certainly pigged out in this restaurant and couldn't get enough. Try the Hot soya milk and the desert of soya curd in sweet sauce if you like tofu. This place serves the best quality tofu I have had outside of Taiwan. This restaurant is so good, we are moving closer to it! Updated from previous review on Wednesday November 20, 2013
