Gastronomic treats for all those who are fond of vegetarian and good foods living within Makati and nearby cities. This is not my first time to visit this place, I was invited by a friend and we ate lunch at this restaurant 2 years ago , Unfortunately – all of my photos were lost .

signage and parking area

If you want to live life fresh and anew, it may be time for you to try out this Vegetarian restaurant in Makati that can help you Live Life Vegetarian. It is not hard to find the place. This is just a few meters away from MRT Magallanes station ( south side) .

patio area

The restaurant had opened its doors 4 years ago and the place is quite secluded with the hustle and bustle of Makati tucked in one corner of the building . There is a small patio area ideal for small group of people. The indoor restaurant can sit between 18 to 24 at any given time.

buffet meal table

Here are some of the MUST Recommended menus of the place:

lumpiang gulay or fresh lumpia

I have tasted a lot of lumpiang gulay , so far this is one of the best – The ingredients are fresh and the vegetables were sliced thinly . This is best accompanied by sauce and crushed peanuts.

house salad

I also liked their version of house salad. it was the use of fresh ingredients and good choice of dressing which made this salad stand-out from the others.

eggplant with saikyo miso

One MUST also try their eggplant stuffed with saikyo miso , This is like teriyaki style with special sauce.

organic rice

Organic rice lovers would be very happy to know that they also serve them . It is quite hard for local restaurant to serve them , since organic rice is expensive and have limited supply.

vegetarian spaghetti pomodoro

For pasta lovers , the restaurant also offers vegetarian spaghetii pamodoro without the usual hotdog, ground beef or meat .

cheese wanton

The cheese wanton is good as appetizer to start any meals .

summer rolls

The summer rolls is very similar to Thai or Vietnamese spring rolls , minus some ingredients . There were 2 kinds of dipping sauces which best accompany this treat.

vegetarian paella

Vegetarian paella – asparagus , cauliflower , mushrooms, carrots , string beans and Baguio beans are some of the vegetables included in this dish.

tofu patties

buko shake with kefer biotic

The buko shake or smoothies is one of the in-house specialties . The buko shake is not your typical buko shake , it had kefer pro-biotic which is good for digestion and health.
