Lotus Pond Vegetarian Restaurant

It may not be the vegan shrine that is Green Cuisine, just down and across Johnson St., but this is still one of the best vegan/vegetarian Chinese restaurants at which I’ve eaten.

They have an extensive menu, and are very friendly in offering dishes that accomodate people with allergies to gluten and other ingredients commonly associated with vegetarian dining. The staff is very friendly too.

I highly recommend getting the salt n’ pepper deep friend tofu plate. The secret is in the small amount of peppers they sprinkle on the huge dish. (note: I hope they still prepare it this way.)
