AI Summary

Forest Hill's all-vegetarian Chinese-Malaysian institution, ten-plus years deep with mock-meat regulars.

Calm, homely dining room that's hosted generations of regulars; lazy-Susan tables suit big family groups, and the vibe stays relaxed even when the small space fills up.

Extensive mock-meat menu (pork ribs, duck, prawns) using ingredients like abalone mushroom, plus a gluten-free menu option and lazy-Susan tables for group sharing.

Reworks Chinese and Malaysian classics - curry laksa, hokkien mee, honey chicken - entirely plant-based; one Malaysian-heritage reviewer felt the curry laksa strayed from authentic technique.

Reasonably priced for generous vegetarian portions, though premium dishes like the black truffle fried rice run pricier, and several long-time regulars note prices have risen noticeably.
