Like a Monk: Greenfeel
Greenfeel Vegetarian (素食一家) was one of the first few vegetarian restaurants (like 4-5 years ago) which pioneered to repackage vegetarian food targeting younger gourmets. It was Yvonne who introduced us its first shop in Tsim Sha Tsui East and we tried with great satisfaction then.
A couple of years later we went more to the new (then) branch in Shatin near the KCR station, but both shops are not there any longer (its was unbelievable since the shop was always adorned with a small queue). The fact is that the green brand was already outreaching to the city heart like Nathan Road, Mong Kok and then Kwun Tong.
Greenfeel tries to create as many famous conventional Chinese dishes as possible but in their vegetarian versions, besides more innovative ones. Many other chefs tried the same but never has there been such success, referring to the quality and variety (name it: from Roasted Chicken in Beancurd Source to Pumpkin Shark-fin Soup). If you prefer a more natural appearance and original taste, there is enough choice of dishes prepared in different ways of cooking and seasoning. Or you can just pick from the pictorial menu. Each dish costs around HK$45. I had a tea-set plus an extra appetizer for lunch yesterday, it was only around HK$35. (Recently the quality seems a little bit down but still good.)
Call and check if the shops are still there before you go, and not a bad idea to reserve your table first:
1. Tsim Sha Tsui: Basement, 10 Cameron Road (near Tom Lee) / 2366 8892
2. Mong Kok: 143 Sai Yee Street / 2393 8012
3. Wan Chai (Express): Shop 13. 1/F, Harbour Centre (near ferry pier) / 2520 3678
4. Kwun Tong: 2/F, 64 Hoi Yuen Road (near MTR) (Oops, just closed down!)
