Two Japanese bosses, one of the owners running a few farms in Japan together with Chef 三原光史 opened this All You Can Eat Japanese Vegetables themed restaurant, whipping up both Japanese and Western dishes. The set-up here is nothing short of amazing ~ there’s a Zen Garden at the back, a shopping counter for those keen to cook these lovely sweet veggies by yourself at home, and there’s even a dedicated elevator to access the restaurant. My live wasabi plant only costed $10 HKD, what a bargain!

Oh wow...I didn't know such a place existed. Looks like I need to pay a visit...everything looks so fresh!
ReplyDeleteAfter living in HK during the 80s and only periodically visiting, I'm amazed at how there's a movement for organic, farm to table, and healthier living/food trends in HK. This place is really cool.
ReplyDeleteYes Rachelle, some of the veggies are really fresh and sweet. I think some of the food preparations here is ok, not overly impressive but I like the general Veggies theme. :)
ReplyDeleteBeef No Guy, you're so right. There's been a couple of these organic or healthier food shops popping up ~ not sure if all of them will last, but seems like LIFE Cafe has been there for a while? not sure.. :)
i've visited this site couple times before and I do love the idea and food overthere. This is really a good restaurant worth to go!
ReplyDeleteYes this is definitely worth a go indeed! The food execution might not be the top of the world, but the ingredients and heart put into the food is worth every penny, considering how we often associate vegetables or all-you-can-eat dishes as being of sub-par standards...
ReplyDeleteIn a sense this really performed above expectations...
I am going to try soon!
