I had an hour and half lunch break so I rushed to CBD to have vegetarian lunch. 

Today’s pick is Chan house 

It is still new. It opened 18months ago by Vietnam born Chinese couple Fiona and George.  All food serve here is NO GARIC AND ONION

Chan house offers very reasonable lunch set menu

select two choice form daily menu consist of various dim sims, veggie stir-fry, mock meat dishes + rice 

Small for $6.5 

Large for $7.5 

Lovely thing is you can have brown rice for $1 additional :) 

I actually went just before closing, just before 3pm so not so many food left and when I came from bathroom, all food was gone! so I even couldn’t take photos :( 

Also offers special soup noodle of the day for $8

Today’s special noodle was spicy beef noodle 

but it was very hot day so I passed soup noodle

So I was looking at the menu below very seriously for a while….

then I choose ” fried noodle with XO sauce” 

why?

I wanted to see if I want to buy vegetarian XO sauce here! 

I started from

 BBQ pork ban $1.8 

then

fried noodle with XO sauce $9 

Noodle with cabbage, carrot, bean sprout, green bean, tofu and BBQ pork.

It is hard to tell from picture but portion is HUGE!  

What I love the most is CHILLI SAUCE! As soon as I pour some chilli sauce, I knew straight  away, it is home made!  Taste? YUUUUMMMM! 

So did I buy XO sauce? 

Yes, I did!! 

Vegetarian XO sauce $5.5 

I haven’t taste the sauce itself yet. I will open when I go back to Sydney. I can’t wait!

That’s right! I am in Melbourne for 5 days this week! 

Beeeeautiful day!!! Beautiful Flinders station!!!!!!

Well, I wish this is holiday but not really. 

I am attending seminar from 9am to 11pm everyday, lunch time is quite short and bit far from city so I can’t really go to city and eat.. and I don’t think any restaurants will be open after 11pm.  I thought I wouldn’t have any chance to try vegetarian restaurant in Melbourne. 

I even could not book the flight one day before or after the seminar…NO FREE TIME :( 

then….the seminar finished 7pm today! 

I rushed my veggie restaurant research then I accidentally find a veggie restaurant 3 minutes from my hotel 

This place does  $6.5 all you can eat!  

I am sure that this article is not lying…..

Such a great deal :) 

Also I didn’t miss the message below the menu 

” food cooked here is made with love and care, we encourage that you do not waste food” 

I think this place is run by some charity group or something. 

See this peaceful painting.. also lovely message was on the wall as well. 

This is today’s menu 

80% of customers were using their hands to eat. You know, people from ”  curry countries” 

It was nearly 8pm when I got there so I promised myself, I was going to ” behave “, it is late and this place is offering food for such a cheap price, I won’t be greedy! 

but i had to get dal two times…oh dear…..

My first day of Melbourne ends so beautifully x 

I hope I will have more chance to explore more vegetarian restaurants in Melbourne next four days
