Yesterday was such an amazing day. I attended a fruit luck at East Coast Park, which was the first fruit luck in Singapore I think! After that I went for a hair cut which included an amazing massage and then had lunch at the nearby Vegetarian Express Cafe! 

My dad discovered the cafe while I was getting my hair cut. 

They have a rather interesting menu featuring a number of cuisines, including Japanese and Korean food!

The dish consists of deep fried noodles, vegetables, mock ham (?) and prawn, and a gravy style sauce. Tasted a spoon and it was pretty good! My dad says it's exactly like the non vegan 生面 (crispy noodles) he likes to eat. 

I try not to eat mock meat too often, but I decided to get the unagi bento set ($12) because it just looked really good in the photo. It comes with a generous serving of short grain Japanese rice, mock unagi served over a bed of lettuce (thumbs up for greens!), seaweed, pickles, miso soup, and watermelon. I checked with them, everything in the set is vegan.

I've been putting off this vegan burg review for too long. Partly because I've been having exams and I haven't had time to write a post, but mainly because I've been quite lazy. In any case, I'm finally writing it! 

You've most likely heard of Veganburg. They're a local vegan fast food chain, and they've even expanded overseas to California! Really proud of them :-) I've eaten at veganburg quite a few times, and though I don't think these burgers are very healthy, I do really like how they taste! 

So far I've tried....

mustang relish, 

smoky bbq, 

their seaweed fries, 

tangy tartar, 

their old school hot dog with satay sauce, 

and Hawaiian teriyaki. 

I really like the quality of the burger buns they use. The texture is just right, not too soft and not too dense. Veganburg uses 3 types of patties: grilled soy patties, mushroom patties and a crispy soy patty. The soy patties resemble chicken while the mushroom patties resemble beef. I do not taste any soy or mushroom in the patties, but if you have discerning taste buds you may be able to.

I visited Loving Hut for the second time the other day with a friend after school (-: Loving Hut is an international chain of vegan restaurants. I love the food they serve because apart from the usual western stuff, they have some local foods like mee pok, nasi campur, nasi lemak, wanton, and more. That's what sets Loving Hut apart from the other vegan restaurants!

Loving Hut has a very wide menu in my opinion! You can check it out here. 

The restaurant is quite big. You can sit indoors or outdoors but it was pretty hot that day so we chose to sit inside ^^

This is their soya bandung! I haven't had bandung in so many years, I literally can't remember the last time I had it! It tasted pretty authentic and brought me back to my childhood. Bandung was a favourite of mine as a kid hehe. Anyway I really liked their version of bandung! It wasn't too sweet too. My friend ordered a fresh young coconut!
