Stunning food

This place is amazing! Stunning food and every dish is so well seasoned
It has only one meal: rice in leaf with Banchan.
It is a fully vegetarian restaurant. No fish sauce in anything (I double checked)
You get many different Banchan.
Make sure to ask for no egg ( 계란 ) but can easily spot it - it’s like an omelette
I paid 12.000 for all. You can ask for refill apparently. There was a Korean couple who helped me translate/order.
I loved the side dishes. Especially the big salad, sprouts and mushrooms and cabbage with homemade sauce.
Everything has their own seasoning and it is wonderful! So good food.
Wasn’t sure about the bamboo if it’s with dairy so didn’t eat it.
Rice is very aromatic too. Only locals here.

You’ll find it inside the market hall in the middle row (there are three rows of market). Easy to find once you get there. Good on your way to the tea plantation.
Enjoy this wonderful meal! Don’t miss it

Pros: Flavour and price

Nice Vegan restaurants in the midst of market place

11 different vege dishes! A feast and a cheap one too.
Lady did ask us about eggs, since one vege-pie had eggs in it.

Pros: Great tasty food

Cons: A bit difficult to find

Great

This place is actually completely vegan. There is only one thing on the menu which is lotus leaf wrapped rice and soup with banchan. Food is delicious and healthy.

Restaurant serving temple food

The restaurant serves a few menus. One being rice wrapped and cooked in a lotus leaf served with various side dishes. There is a traditional tea experience as well.
You will have to ask which side dishes have fish paste in however.

Pros: Huge variety of vegetables , Delicious rice and soup, Awesome tea experience
