Decent place - Edit
The food is ok and the prices are low. However I must confess I'm quite sceptical when it comes to the hygiene...

Good and affordable - Edit
We went here for lunch. You can either choose a la carte or something from the buffet. There are a lot of options.
Read moreWe tried the "sweet & sour lamb diced" (tasty, but a little spicy) with rice and "fried soya mee" (very savoury). The food was good, but not extraordinary and the price is ok.

Great vegan options - Edit
Pretty much the only vegetarian restaurant that opens in the evening and is within walking distance from the main area. Note there is a shortcut next to a small creek if you come from the main area (Jalan Tun Tan Cheng), Google maps won’t show you, it’s just past 175 gallery (if you’re walking out of town).
Read moreI went here twice for dinner and both times the food was very good. They have buffet but also a la carte, I ordered from the menu. Some of the foods are spicy so it’s good to ask! I had a fish fried rice, and sweet and sour chicken. Both the fish and chicken were absolutely delicious. I also tried the asam boi drink which I ended up loving. The place is very affordable and the food quality is good.
Beware they do serve eggs so it’s safest just to specify ‘no egg’ when ordering anything. Honey is used in some drinks.

All rounder - Edit
Firstly, I met the owner of this place tonight and she informed me the name had been changed for a year now to REN XIN. The map still leads you here but it was a bit misleading today. I’ve updated Happy Cow.
Read moreI went here twice today as I wanted to try both the buffet and the menu. I got rice and 3 dishes lunch time for 7 RM and a battered mushroom and broccoli dish this evening for 18RM. Juices range from 2-5RM. Absolute value for money and delicious food with large portions. Staff so attentive and friendly and the place is spotless clean. Massively recommend.
As a bonus the owner said she only changed the name when her mother passed it on to her and she won’t change anything else 🙏🏻

Delicious and cheap - Edit
Ended up over ordering, such were the prices and the portion sizes. Lots of mock meat choices and the ‘chicken’ curry was stunning. Everything ordered was great and staff were helpful.

Got the buffet here for breakfast. Everything was tasty although it did feel a little oily for that time in the morning! not as many options as at some other buffets.

Cheap eats! - Edit
Buffet style food, we were told it was all vegan! It’s difficult to know what each dish was as the staff have limited English. Tasty and super value at 17 RM for two huge plates of food!

Good value - Edit
Decent buffet selection which was all vegan on the day I visited. The food isn't very hot but I think for somewhere so affordable that's to be expected. Really enjoyed the bean curd dish the most. Good place to go if you're hungry and want to fill up on food for a good price!

Super cheap chinese buffet! - Edit
This place is a nice find in Malacca.
Read moreIt's a no frills veg chinese buffet with a good selection of dishes.
We came once around 530 pm. Not as many options available, and some were a bit cold, but still good.
We came back around noon. There were almost twice as many available options, and everything was warm.
It's really cheap, with free water.
Most patrons are locals.
Staff is mostly friendly, and helpful.
Highly recommended if you like to eat what locals eat at local prices. We sure do! 😁
FYI - You pay according to how much you put on your plate.
Pros: Local dishes, Local prices, It's worth a visit... or many visits, actually.
Cons: Less choices, a bit cold, if you come late

Nice but title says the issue. I know I'm not the first to suffer this cruel fate but I feel cheated. Still, it was good.

A no frills cheap meal - Edit
We have dined in a few places locally that didn’t understand the concept of vegan/vegetarianism so came here with suspicion, but as far as we could tell everything was vegetarian, perhaps not all vegan though. We kinda just filled our plates and hoped for the best. The food was okay, enough to fill your belly without lightening the wallet too much. Comes in a self serve cold buffet style.
Read morePros: The price, No hidden meat
Cons: Could be clearer as to what you’re getting, Cold food

I have got there around 3pm and they had still some choices - the mock meat, but also tofu dishes😍
Read moreThe food was good and not expensive at all!
It is cold and hot rice - as the Chinese buffet style places!
Nice option as they are open in the afternoon, when most eateries are closed already😄

Awful- Avoid! - Edit
Everything in the buffet was totally cold. You have to stick your hand in a rice cooker to serve yourself rice (not hygienic).
Read moreWe asked if the food could be warmed and they said no. Asked if we could order fresh food from the menu, they said no. My partner ordered an iced tea and it came hot... With ice in it.
Staff unfriendly.
Pros: None
Cons: Food

Chin Hua Vegetarian, Melaka - Edit
1st time I went here was 2022. Food was OK if you're nearby but not worth making a specific journey to eat here. 2nd time, they weren't open during the listed opening times. It was 19th lunar calendar day so. Sign on the door states they'll relocate on 2024 March 1st to a new address.

Nice buffet - Edit
Really enjoyed the variety of dishes, mock meats etc. However the buffet is cold, at least when we were there around 12:30. The girl working there didn’t really seem to understand me when I asked if there were any no-vegan dishes (as I saw that there were some eggs), but it’s okay.
Read moreUpdate: they seem to use regular (milk) creamer in some dishes, double check before.

Cheap but not best - Edit
I’ve taken the buffet option. The food is really cheap. Although the meal that I’ve chosen was so greasy that I’m not really willing to come back here. The fresh coconut was quite warm, I’ve had best ones before.
