Omakase is a word in the Japanese language, which roughly translates as "it's up to you" - The dishes are decided by the Chef. Poh Lin Monastery runs on the same concept. The only choice that diners have is the type of set meal they want: Deluxe or Basic. The dishes are pre-set by the Chefs.


Though I have read good reviews of the Vegetarian Restaurant at Poh Lin Monastery online. In my opinion this dining establishment somewhat resembles a fast food chain. The dishes are served in a rapid manner and lunch there felt like a hurried affair! The food isn't bad, but there is nothing special about it.


If you have a craving for Vegetarian food but you are just too lazy to head to the Big Buddha. Why not try THREE VIRTUES VEGETARIAN RESTAURANT? We arrived at the restaurant around 1.30pm and it was still very full! We had to wait close to 1/2 an hour for a table! My friend told me that this restaurant is a popular eating joint for the locals. It is advisable to make a reservation first, if you plan to head there for lunch or dinner. There is bound to be something for everyone with its extensive Vegetarian menu - Dim Sum or Ala Carte Dishes.

There is an Esprit Factory Outlet at North Point too and I felt that it was much better than the one at Citygate Shopping Mall! If you are looking for size 32 or 34, there is a higher chance of finding that size at the North Point or Mong Kok outlet.
