About

A weekday-only vegetarian buffet inside a Buddhist temple near the Petronas Towers, serving mostly vegan Chinese-style dishes with notable tofu and mock meat varieties. The venue functions cafeteria-style with self-service and cash payment by weight, offering an affordable experience in a community-focused setting with volunteer staff. Despite being busy at lunch, seating is ample, and visitors often appreciate the temple's chanting and the meal's wholesome, mild flavors.
