So many vegan options - Edit
This place is always a delight to visit! So many vegan options clearly labeled. Had tofu in several delicious forms today! And I was particularly excited to have vegan carrot cake for dessert.

Tofu-tastic! - Edit
Sorry for the clumsy pun, but there was tofu in so many ways I didn't have room to try them all, and I'm loving it.
Read moreWe went for Saturday brunch not knowing what to expect. The place was full, packet, so popular I haven't seen in ages. Still, staff were delightfully friendly and smiley. Great relaxed atmosphere.
The buffet style offerings were mostly vegan and there were clear labels of which ones were indeed vegan. They do have some dishes with meats. My family agreed on them tofu-dishes being tastiest they tried.
We had small cup of pho, 3-4 mains, summer rolls, spring rolls, kimbap, ice tea, 2 pieces of cake and small coffee.
Sorry for fuzzy photo, I was so dazzled by all of it I forgot how to photograph 😅
Edit: Weekday buffet was just as good as weekend😄

Asian fusion buffet - Edit
Asian buffet restaurant with tons of vegan options including soup and dessert as well. The red curry was some of the best I've had in Finland and all in all really good buffet food. A lot of tofu, which I love , but some variety of protein would have been nice. #Veganuary

Rich buffet with some specialities - Edit
We visited Whatever at lunchtime on a school holiday week. It was quite a busy time but we got a table for two. In my opinion the crowd created a nice feeling.
Read moreThere were a lot of options in salads, main dishes and desserts. I wasn't able to taste all vegan options! Lots of options in a buffet always makes me think of food waste. The food was delicious. If I could wish for something different, some vegan warm dishes could be without tofu. One dessert option was a vegan cinnamon roll and having those is always a plus.
Pros: Friendly service, Several vegan desserts
Cons: Some dishes were unlabelled

Great lunch, still my favorite place - Edit
This was my first time visiting Whatever after they moved to the bigger spot. I was pleasently surprised how the food still tasted the same (amazing) even if they were made for buffet and not plates by order. Vegan section was at the end of the buffet and it had good amount of options. Labelings were clear and the staff is so heartwarming and friendly as they have always been ❤️ even if the lunch is a bit more expensive now (13.50e) it feels still cheap for all the things you get with the money. Totally worth it.

The best Asian food in this city, especially for vegans - Edit
Great vegan food, also good for non vegans. Very good value for the money. Friendly staff. The restaurant moved in August 2024 to the next building and has now a terrace and more room for customers. It serves buffet everyday. I think it is the best Asian restaurant in Tampere, especially for vegans.

So much delicious food with little money! - Edit
I went for lunch 12€. It's unbelievable that with that price you can have soup, salad buffet, meal of your choice, a dessert (a proper one - we had vegan matcha panna cotta anf chocolate cake) and coffee/tea. I had bibimbap which was big portion and sooo tasty! Gosh I wish I lived in Tampere to go here every week. The only minus is that they're not fully vegan and they need more space, it can get crowded (for a reason though!)

No wonder it is busy - Edit
Asian hole-in-a-wall. Has a very short daily menu of two vegan and two non-vegan options so no extra waste or wait. Vegan matcha pannacotta was a nice dessert.

Warmly recommend - Edit
We had one of two lunch options (both are available vegan). The portion size was good and it includes drinks (water, coffee, tea) as well as soup, salad and a dessert. For just 11€ perfect for a filling lunch.
Read moreThe food came quickly and while it was crowded when we came, most people didn't stay long, so we could switch to a better seating.
