Was Jace Kiehn at Wú Ròu Shí a mag?
This is heaven in earth. Yummy options, lots of options. They have lunch and dinner prices and it’s totally worth it. Salads, veggies, main dish, rice, teas, desserts. The restaurant is very clean and you are given a plate that you have to reuse for every serving. So no waste. View all feedback.
What José Galfetti dislikes about Wú Ròu Shí:
Just had dinner here. It was a pretty big spread of buffet, including soup, rice, noodles, hot dishes, cold dishes, various dim sum items, etc. Food was heavily traditional Cantonese. If you're unfamiliar, you'll probably have no clue what half the stuff is because nothing is labeled. Dairy/egg is, albeit in Chinese. Tonight all but three were vegan, so that was good. Despite the variety, the food was nothing to writ... View all feedback.

Simple, without ruffle type buffet. cold tempura section, mini-seal bar, suppe and many warm-hearted agitator frits/stones. has classics like radishes, reisnules, noodles, seuan sweet, deep roasted tofu. make sure they take their used plates and utensils out of the cleaning area after the closure of the cleaning.
Went here for lunch, and yes. Plenty to choose from, taste was good, the price is low, atmosfeer is fine. Recommendable.
This place is a bit like a canteen with long tables/ shared seating and industrial decor (exposed pipes overhead). Upon entering, you pay for the buffet (cash only) and then help yourself. There is a wide range of different Chinese dishes, and some salads and other items at the front. I've liked the food on all occasions. It is similar to Innoveggie down the road, but a more casual setting and perhaps a bit cheaper. Pretty busy all times I've visited. I've also visited in a larger group to try their amazing seasonal hot pot the flavours of the spicy soup base are so good and they are very generous with the vegetables. They included mushrooms, yam, kombu, lotus root, mini noodles tied together, watercress, handmade dumplings! Need to order that in advance.
This is one of my favourite vegetarian restaurants in Hong Kong! The place is often busy with locals. It is set out buffet style so you can take as much or as little of what you would like. The food is quite traditional no-frills style (reminiscent of home cooking), with no mock meats used. To be fair, I don't mind mock meats, but it is great to have vegetarian dishes that are not trying to imitate meat dishes! Veggies have great flavour in and of themselves! There is usually a spread of entree type dishes and some traditional desserts, plus rice, congee and soup available (and the mains, of course) There is a lunch session and a dinner session, it pays to get there at least 30 mins before the end of the session so you get some time to eat. I find the patrons and staff here quite down to earth and friendly. Sharing tables is expected. The front of house is sparsely staffed so it's all self serve and you put your dirty dishes into buckets after. (I was surprised it has only 3 stars on happy cow I suspect this is probably because the cooking is quite traditional (not really westernised) thus does not suit everyone's tastes plus it's a much more community type feel not a fancy a la carte experience)
The manager tells me most of the stuff they have here is vegan. If you like to fill up big then you can do so at this place (there's a clue in the name). Updated from previous review on 2017-05-10
