Yummy Veggie International Buffet & Steamboat Restaurant

We were craving for some vegetarian food over the weekend and wanted to go to our favourite Lotus Vegetarian Restaurant at Quality hotel. However, they are fully booked as usual (if you want to dine there, I recommend you call them a few days to a week in advance. If you call them the last minute, they are usually fully booked).

Decide to try out Yummy Veggie since we've been seeing their ad popping up on facebook a couple of times but never got down to trying it. 



It's easily located at Kembangan CC. Apparently, I didn't read their website closely, so I was pleasantly surprised when I learnt that we get to enjoy both steamboat and international buffet together (thought it's an either/or thing like Lotus). You get to choose 2 soup base from a list of Tom Yum, Vegetable, Herbal, Korean Miso.

The seats were really small though so the experience wasn't so pleasant since its so squeezy. Especially the tables for 2 pax. It's so amazingly small, and with the mini steamboat pot, and plates from the cooked food. Actually, the bigger tables are equally squeezy. It's common to see people seating "outside" of their space just to make more space. Hubby commented that this place is a fire hazard. 

They do have quite a variety of food, but many doesn't look too appetizing. I was delighted to see topokki (korean hot and spicy rice cake), but was disappointed that it looks really dry and unappetizing that I gave it a miss. I tried to take a piece of each item to give it a try, but I realized most of the items taste rather bland and generally unappetizing. There are a couple of the items that are not too bad like their "fried drumstick", "fried squid ring", "fried wanton" etc, and my favourite must be their eclair. It tasted totally heavenly (compared to all the other food there) and I had quite a number of servings. Their mango sorbet is really nice too!

Let the pictures do the talking:


some of the buffet spread


Ice-Cream! Try their mango sorbet. It's good!




First time seeing cans of soft drinks for people to take at buffets




Steamboat. It has all the usual vegetarian stuffs like corn, mushroom, lotus root, mock prawn/meat etc. 






Eclair! Best food of the day. I've so many servings of it! It contains egg though in case you're vegan.


Singapore laksa. Looks good, but it tasted totally bland and is the worst laksa I've ever eaten. =/



Very nice mango sorbet. No egg! :)
