can’t give five stars - Edit
I know what you’re thinking, it’s very rare that you don’t give a true vegan restaurant five stars. It’s quick and easy and dirt cheap. They have lots and lots of mock meets substitutes. They must have 30 unique items on the buffet.. The thing is, none of them are great. The big plus here is that the three of us ate two plates each plus drinks and the entire bill is US$10. They charge you by plate. They are very attentive but the old lady has a scowl on her face. This place has that street food charm. It’s certainly not horrible and it’s obvious they are a hard working family.

Phenomenal - Edit
I'm only reviewing this place to bring up its review score and respond to the previous review; if you don't want food that's been sitting out (which is super normal in SE Asia), they have a menu from which you can order freshly cooked stuff. And again, as far as SE Asia goes, it's fairly clean. If you want a hyper-sterile vegan buffet, you ought to be in another city!
Pros: Huge variety, dirt cheap, delicious
Cons: Closes early

Cheap & Cheerful - Edit
We had lunch here. There was a large selection of dishes with both veg only and mock meats and the staff were very friendly. But it was one of those places where the food was a little bit cold and the place was a little bit grimy.
All in all it was ok. Good if you are wanting to grab a quick meal without having to agonise over the menu.

Essen war fein jedoch kalt - Edit
Waren hier zu Morgenessen/Mittagessen, ist sehr günstig. Es ist ein Bufffet man kann sich das auf den Teller schöpfen was man möchte jedoch ist alles kalt. Sie verstehen kein Englisch und sind nicht so interessiert an dir als Gast, war ein bisschen schade. Das essen war aber sonst fein.

Sin Meng Kee, Ipoh - Edit
I was atrracted here based on the happycow classifucation of being all vegan. My Cantonese speaking co diner asked the staff some questions. The staff replied that they dont add milk, egg nor honey products to the food. It was interesting to note the web url on the wall is the url for the woman behind the loving hut chain.
The choice of food is extensive. Its inexpensively priced and tasty. Two of us had a big plate each. Total cost for two was 17 rym. We came back later for take away to eat on the train.
Pros: seems to be all vegan, inexpensive and tasty

Cheap and lots of variety - Edit
This one was quite difficult to find, the gps kept sending us the wrong way until we had all but given up, only to find the place by accident after getting stuck in a traffic jam.. the ladies were nice and helpful and the food tasted nice even though the mock meats we tried and most of the sweeter, non-spicy food had an overpowering cinnamon taste.. but there is a lot of variety and it's quite cheap so it's well worth giving a try if you happen to be passing by.
Side note: if you can, try to avoid parking at the garage down the street during peak hours as the smell from the fishmarket above is as bad as it gets.
Pros: lots of options, cheap, helpful ladies
Cons: difficult to find, bad traffic during lunch hours,

Lots of options - Edit
This place has more options than most 'economy rice' places have. Food tasted nice and some of it was kept hot!
The details given in the previous review helped us out - thank you! The name has changed and location on the map is wrong as the person pointed out.
Staff are pretty miserable - they bark the price at you and that's about it!
Pros: Very good selection, Cheap
Cons: Miserable staff

Name probably changed - Edit
It took me a while to find it as the map points to a wrong direction. I have marked the right location in the picture I added. It is not in a coffee shop anymore, but the whole place is a restaurant now. As on my picture with the entrance, the name seems to have changed. They serve buffet style and quote a price when they see what you have chosen. I paid 5 RM for a fully loaded plate. Drinks extra of course.
Open from 7am to 5pm.
Pros: Very tasty, great variety, best value for money
Cons: If you don't mind a basic setup, none

Great local atmosphere - Edit
This is not a restaurant but is a stall located in a coffee shop in the 'white coffee' area of Ipoh. You choose the accompaniments you want with your rice and all will be served on a plate, much like taking food from a buffet table. Great taste, good variety and reasonably clean.
Pros: great local atmosphere, good taste, cheap
Cons: some may find it noisy, prepared food is exposed to air
