Shangdao Vegetarian Shàng Dào Sù Shí

Unlike previous reviews, I did struggle to find it. Both Google maps and Maps.Me sent me to the wrong place but I happened to come across the temple eventually. Front door does not look like the entrance to a restaurant. Ordered an aubergine and green bean dish but was told it wouldn't be enough so added a cauliflower dish. Portions turned out to be big but the food was incredible. Best food I've had in China so far. Menu all in Chinese with no pictures but a translate app does the job.

A very nice and peaceful place with a huge menu. The staff is helpful and polite. Food is delicious You may sit outside surrounded by bamboo in a peaceful atmosphere

The place is easy to find and we had the whole room for us. The stuff didn’t speak English, so we communicate via translated app and just showed with the fingers what we wanted. We got fried potatoes with a lot of chillis instead fried beans (what we ordered), but got them for free after telling them, that we hadn’t ordered them. With the other two dishes (oily eggplant and mapo tofu) and the beans, it was too much. Every dish was made with so much oil, that we can’t eat that much and take a lot with us home. The taste was nothing special at all.
