Amazing - Edit
Amazing vegan food, kind and understanding owners, and nice atmosphere, all here in good ol' KL, Malaysia!
This 100% vegan restaurant was packed, so bookings are essential.
The assam laksa is probably the best that I've ever had. Definitely try it! And the ice cream on brownie was heavenly.
Pros: Delicious food, awesome variety, Everything is 100% vegan, Helpful and friendly owners
Cons: None off the top of my head

Amazing food - Edit
I love this place. We went on a Sunday night and it was packed. The menu was impressive and it took me a while to decide what to have. The food was so tasty. It had so much flavour and tasted so fresh. The staff were great. Very friendly and helpful. Overall I would thoroughly recommend this place. It's definitely the best meal I've had so far in KL (and I've been here two weeks!). I just wish it was closer to where I'm staying so I could go everyday.

Local Food Veganised! - Edit
I was fortunate enough to have a chat with the owner whilst waiting for my friend to arrive for our lunch date. Her and her husband went vegan over 20 years ago and have slowly influenced their family to do so as well, and to cater to the needs of her family members she decided to open a restaurant which now serves to vegans and non-vegans alike.
She is so passionate in the food she creates that it shows. Her most popular dishes are the Assam Laksa, which I thought closely resembles the real thing; the Burgers - we tried the soy pattie and my lunch mate thought it tasted exactly like fish fillet! The Vietnamese Rice Rolls were spectacular, with fresh ingredients rolled in delicate rice paper, served with a very moorish dipping sauce; the Fried "Butter" Oyster Mushrooms were crisp and perfectly golden paired well with a custard- like 'butter' sauce.
All the desserts are made fresh daily by the owner, there were even raw desserts such as the Tiramisu which I thought was quite decadent, we also had the warm Brownie which came with their home- made ice cream. On top of that, she insisted we try the Green Tea ice cream which she made using freshly ground matcha - and if you love green tea the way I do, you'll love this!
I probably went into a food coma after this, but it was well worth it!
The atmosphere was homey yet it got quite crowded over lunch time, which was impressive seeing that the area is a housing estate and most of the clientele are office people.
Definitely give this place a visit if you're rolling by KL.
Pros: Local Specialties, Knowledgable Staff, Great Food
Cons: A little far from everything else, Could get crowded at lunchtime

Amazing food and friendly staff! - Edit
I went here in November 2016. Food was delicious and good serving portion. I would highly recommend their asam laksa, burgers, sushi, wraps and brownies with ice cream. It was very good. The only dishes here that could be improved in terms of taste is the steak and spaghetti with meatballs. All the other 12 dishes I tried were very tasty. Staff and the restaurant's owner here were very friendly. Restaurant is also kept very neat and clean.
Pros: Lots of variety, Fully Vegan

Great vegan food! - Edit
I found this fully vegan place via the happy cow app, and the reviews don't lie, it's goooood! My partner is not vegan but LOVES this place as it offers a really range of food (a mixture of Asian and western). On our first visit, we tried the Vietnamese rolls, Japanese korokke, pumpkin rolls, pineapple rice, and gyoza. We loved it all. We've been back several times and tried both of the burgers, and several noodle dishes - we've never been disappointed. The vegan cheesecakes are brilliant - we often take some home to enjoy later (as we're so full from all the savoury food - seriously though, order the Vietnamese rolls and gyoza - you will not regret it).
The owners of Loving Cafe are lovely and always very friendly. They even have a vegan dog! I also like the fact that they promote waste reduction, and takeaways are always wrapped in recyclable materials (we may start taking our own containers for takeaway, which I'm sure they'd encourage).
Big thumbs up.

Awesome vegan place! Check it out!!! - Edit
Loving Cafe is wonderful in many dimensions. First, it is a vegan cafe that is actually run by ethical vegans.
Second, it offers delicious food - especially their burgers are incredible, likely the best vegan burgers I have had in Malaysia so far (together with those of Woods Organic).
And third, the staff are friendly, it has a nice atmosphere, and when I visited it, I was impressed by how many other customers went there for their vegan food.
I would first and foremost suggest to try out their burgers - they have two, one made from mushrooms, the other made from soy. Both are delicious and present a fairly good value - a vegan burger with fries for below RM 10 is an awesome deal.
I have also tried out their Vietnamese rolls, which were equally wonderful. I can't wait to go there again to try out their other dishes.
They also do have sushi, which are ok (but not as good as vegan sushi in other places I have been to in KL), and a little bit expensive. So my suggestion would be to try those if you like them and focus more on their Chinese and Western food.
And finally, they have vegan desserts, lots of cakes and home-made icecream that I also truly enjoyed.
All in all, it is a place that is well worth the trip to Seri Petaling. Highly advised!!!
