Green Cottage - Outlying Islands

The restaurant itself is so sweet with a cozy atmosphere. the personal was super helpful, like veganizing menu points. the food was nice, the portions were generous and all tasted fresh.

I had an amazing burger, a cheesecake and an icey coffee. everything was so high standard and tasted amazing. it was a hot day and it was nice that inside is air conditioned. there are also beautiful protected tables on the back with sea view. would come again!

Green Cottage doesn't offer vegan dishes by default but they can make almost everything vegan by request. Unlike many other places in Hong Kong the staff at Green Cottage is aware about what veganism is about. I was treated very courteous and advised in all detail with great endurance and friendliness. The food a daily special was very good. Good smoothies as well. Appropriate pricing. WiFi available. However, they need to replace their menu cards. The ones currently in use are seriously gross. Also, extra charge for soy milk, that was a wee bit glumly.

I spun along here for some dinner this afternoon. This was a very positive experience. I can see why this place is popular. 1stly it was hot and humid. I was offered outdoor seating but due to the humidity I asked if there was an area with air con available. No issue and I was escorted to the area at the very back of the restaurant. I was served by a very helpful gent who fortunately for me and my poor standard of Cantonese spoke good English. The menu is also in English with supporting pics for those who like that kind of thing. There's plenty on the menu to choose from. There's an extensive section on juices and the like as well as other drinks. There's a breakfasts section, pizzas, mains and there's also a specials board that was offer a deal of the day. For 108 hkd it's a choice on the special menu of either soup or salad followed by a main and either a normal tea or coffee (more extravagant teas and coffees incur extra charge). The menu appeared big on dairy and egg for a humble vegan such as me so I asked for a recommendation. The waiter stepped through the menu with pointing out many dishes that could be made vegan basically by either removing the cheese or the eggs. I went for the deal of the day and had mushroom soup 1st. very nice. My co diner went for the beetroot salad for which the feedback I am given is it was OK but could have benefited with some extra beetroot. The main was vego bolognese with linguine very nice also. My co diner asked for a soya latte for a drink and was a little disappointed that there was an additionao charge for soya milk rather than dairy milk. 10% services are added. As mentioned very enjoyable. Tasty food, helpful and capable service in what is an eatery with a pleasant vibe. If I were to make a couple of suggestions for improvement the additional price for soya milk compared to dairy milk would be better removed. Updated from previous review on Friday April 03, 2015

There are not many walkable vegetarian restaurant options on lamma so after know bookworm cafe has become a meat café and rawsoever only private restaurants with booking, I came from this. the menu has many items with eggs, but I finally found something to order. the personal was friendly and kept asking me if there is something I can't eat as they can adjust the cooking. that was cool. the dinge started to change. I asked about the change of tea with milk milk to soy milk, the personal said yes, but add it $5 extra. When I thought I had a curry dish with veggie and ordered ananas on rice, came a fried rice without curry taste (the Chinese menu says curry rice not roast rice with curry sauce or something. partly my bad, not to double check as it says stir fried too). during the order I mentioned that I could not eat salad or raw vegetables today. the rice was covered with raw petersil, which I also hate. when I paid, said the staff, the restaurant only accepts cash. I said, how about payme? They said no and asked me to get money or make sure I'm wearing some money when I come back to lamma. it is rare for restaurants that do not accept any other form of payment except cash. I wish they told me when I came in to avoid all these unnecessary talks. there was no sign at the front that only cash money said one of the employees said they should ask next time whether the shop or restaurant accepts other payment forms before I order. I said, what if they let the customers know the next time? I'm glad the younger female employees helped ask someone to send a payme code so I could settle it.
