Vegetarian Food at Lantau Island (大屿山吃斋)

What's so special about the vegetarian food at Lantau Island(大屿山)? Well, I also not sure but seems like when people mentioned Lantau island, they will automatically link to vegetarian food. So must try when I'm at 'dai yu san' lor, right?

Before you climb the stairs up to the Big Buddha, you will see this ticketing counter on your right. If you want to try their vegetarian food, this is the place to buy the tickets.

the price list

So what's the difference between General (HKD 60) and Deluxe (HKD 150)? For Deluxe, you will have your own table (no need to share with others) and you will have better dishes. As for General, slightly different dishes and also might need to share table with other people. After listening to the explanation, we decided to get the General, HKD 60 per person. RM 30 per person wor, also consider quite expensive already lar..Share table also nvm lar, as long as the dishes no need to share with others.

HKD 60 x 3 person, so altogether HKD 180

We decided to makan first before we start to climb the stairs, not yet eat where got energy right? The place to eat is just across the street, opposite the big buddha.

We managed to get ourselves a table for 3,
small table so don't need to share with other people.

It was already 2pm+ but still a lot of people.

We were not very sure whether we need to self service or wait for ppl to serve us. After waited about 10 minutes, someone gave us a pot of chinese tea, that pot is enough for 10 ppl!! Anyway, we waited for another 10 minutes for our vegetarian dishes.

White rice

Celery (芹菜)

Sweet & Sour Tofu
this is nice!!

Spring roll, this one so so only.

HK Choy Sam

Lotus root soup

4 different dishes plus a soup, not bad right. How it taste? Well, I won't say it's super delicious but it consider quite nice also. Everything was served hot and you can refill the rice (i think) but not the vege dishes gua..

If you happen to go Lantau Island one day, you should really try their vegetarian food. It's worth to try!
