TATLER TIPS
Order your soup in a cup if you plan to have other entrées. The bowl may be too much and may fill you too early during the meal. They have sinful desserts that make you forget that it’s a vegetarian’s haven. Spinach and pechay chowder is green soup? Yes it’s green! That's as healthy as you can get. Spaghettini with broccoli and toasted nuts is always a favourite. It’s an aglio olio with attitude. Vegetable kare-kare has a nice thick peanut sauce. Best with red rice and the special tausi (salted black beans) or bagoong, which is meatless, of course.
