    Bodhi used to be in an amazing building in the mid 90s. It was close to Central and it had wooden floorboards and big windows. It was like a gourmet sanctuary for me back then as it was hard to get lots of vegan things and I have been eating yum cha since I was young.... I stopped going once they changed to the new location (which I think was the one before the current location) as it just didn't have the ambience I liked and the food changed too, plus the prices. They definitely had lots of tea back then... A favourite place from back then that still is great is Mother Chu's vegetarian on Pitt St. Their soybean rolls with blackbean sauce are extra!

    • @itslizmiu
      @itslizmiu  4 роки тому

      janicejanisjan you can easily create the egg wash look with vegan products! :) While not all places may know the difference between vegan and vegetarian, the restaurants that are in this video are well versed in the difference and I’m 100% confident all the dishes in this vid are vegan. Bodhi is 100% vegan, Tian ci was vegetarian and is now 100% vegan in a new location and carlingford veg also recently made the change to a 100% vegan yum cha menu after being vegetarian for over a decade!

  • @lanycera
    @lanycera 3 роки тому

    Update 2020: Carlingford is closed, but Tian Ci seems to have re-opened in a different location. Although I couldn't find the offer of yumcha on their website, and only a couple of dumplings. Bodhi is still open, overpriced and overrated.
