Quite nice

Had a nice mock turkey meal that was very filling, tasty and not very expensive.
Would definatly go back

Destine Vegetarian, Aberdeen, Hong Kong

I largely agree with the previous reviewer.

there's a comment at the beginning of the menu about letting staff know if you prefer not to eat milk, cheese, eggs and also interestingly, chilli. I was with a native Cantonese speaker who commented to me how helpful the staff were. They took our request for vegan food very seriously. At one point they mixed up their advice on what was and wasn't vegan and while this was resolved long before food was in front of us, we were given some extra food for free.

Decent though not impressive

Never easy to rate a place based on one lunch and 3 dishes... but that's the game, isn't it? DESTINE is easy to find, thanks to Happycow's GPS function. It is downstairs, in the basement, not the best room in town to be fair, quite nosy as well. Staff is nice but can't really speak English, and even Mandarin was not really successful (but maybe that because of me...). Anyhow, I managed to order a dish with bamboo (竹, the lady could hardly read/understand my attempt to write/pronouce it), and as a safe precaution some spring and also fried tofu rolls. Can't say that I was really impressed by the food, though it was still ok. I guess a 3.5 would reflect my experience here, yet as HC only offer 3 or 4, I'll go for a 3 to counterbalance the 2 previous reviews both at 5 (you guys surely know what to order!). ok, I agree that I should come again, try other dishes, with a group if possible, and adjust my review if needed.

Pros: English menu with pictures, Good choice of various dishes

Cons: Noisy room in basement

Bonjour Pascal,

I've been going through my reviews. This one I have changed from 4 to 5 (I think its somewhere in between).

I had no issues ordering. I had a Cantonese speaker with me.

Keep well, Stevie
