I can't afford to eat at vegetarian specialty eateries so what I do is just select vegetable dishes from the chap fan (mixed rice) stall. The above are my favourite vegetable dishes: stir fry yin choy (amaranth greens); cai (vegetarian) dish - beancurd puffs (tofu pok) stir fried with tong hoon, chinese cabbage, black fungus; stir fry chinese mustard greens (Kai Choy in Cantonese) with carrots and cauliflower. Very tasty and best of all, the price is MYR4.70 nett only. What are your favourite vegetable dishes?
true, vegetarian specialty eateries can be expensive while vegetarian dishes at non-vegetarian eateries are relatively cheaper.. and most importantly, they do not have (that many) "fake meat" than in specialty eateries..
ReplyDeleteSome fake meat are made.from the stalks of mushrooms so they are ok, do not taste that fake.
DeleteYes, those vegan places are very expensive, I hear. That is why I have never bothered to check them out. Worse would be those organic healthy-eating places, even more expensive. Everything has its price, I guess. :(
ReplyDeleteMore expensive but can they extend our life?
DeleteI do exactly the same thing. I pick vegetable dishes in zhap fan stalls rather than go for the vegetarian stalls. Most of the time, the food tastes better and less oily. And yes, cheaper.
ReplyDeleteI know you only eat vege dishes in your factory cafe.
DeleteThat mixed vegetarian dish is one of my favourites too. I usually make it for CNY.
ReplyDeleteMy mother in law does this too.
DeleteI don't have any favorite vege, guess I like the eat mostly, as long as it taste nice ya.
ReplyDeleteYou told us before that you are not particular about what you eat.
DeleteI used to do that too, just take the vegetables without any meat. All three that you selected, I like very much!
ReplyDeleteYou like both meat and vege! Good!
DeleteI like greens.. anything is fine with me.. but if I see a variety, I will opt for okra, bitter gourd, spinach.... :)
ReplyDeleteI like to eat all 3 you listed above too.
DeleteVegetarian outlets could be very expensive. I used to eat in one when I worked in my 1st employment.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite vegetable dishes are midin, cangkuk manis and kangkung.
If only we have midin and cangkuk manis here.
DeleteNice alternative to vegetarian food. I've to admit they're rather expensive. Happy holidays, sweetie! xoxo
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays to you and your family too!
DeleteHealthy food, it is good to eat more vegetables
ReplyDeleteYou are right.
DeleteI like those vegetables you have picked. Very healthy food.
ReplyDeleteYou don't have any favourite vegetable dishes?
DeleteWhenever I head to any mixed rice shops, my eyes would scout for the white cauliflowers first. It is my most favourite vegetable and the chef must know how to fry them right. LOL
ReplyDeleteDo you like the white cauliflower to be crunchy or soft?
