Who said you should only visit Chinatown’s Buddha Tooth Relic Temple for prayers? If you take a detour to Basement 1, you’ll be spoilt for choice when you see Lian Xin Vegetarian Food Court’s extensive menu of affordable meals.
Since opening its doors to the public in 2022, Lian Xin Vegetarian Food Court has strived to create affordable dishes that are healthy and delicious. From their tradition of providing complimentary meals every Chinese New Year and Vesak Day, to the different menu items available daily, Lian Xin has been dedicated to the community.
The food court provides the Regular Menu with mains and the High Tea Menu with desserts and side dishes.
Lian Xin Vegetarian Food Court offers their Value Set (S$3) with 2 vegetables and 1 main daily. This features a caifan-style setup commonly seen in hawker centres, and you can choose to add another vegetable serving or main for S$1.20.
If mixed rice isn’t your thing, you could try out their Western spread instead. Dishes like Cheese Pizza and Creamy Mushroom Pasta are included, on a daily rotation system. If you plan on going back, be sure to choose a different day of the week!
Apart from savoury dishes, you can also satisfy your sweet tooth at Lian Xin Vegetarian Food Court. They offer bowls of local desserts like Tau Suan and Burbur Chacha at S$1.20 each, with different desserts each day.
You can even pick the Ice Cream Waffle (S$5.50) from the High Tea Menu, featuring crispy Belgian waffles drizzled in syrup and topped with a scoop of ice cream.
But if you’re not in the mood for dessert, they have local snacks, or 小吃, like Popiah (S$4) and Noodles (S$5) to ensure everyone gets a bite.
So if you’re in the vicinity, why not stop by Lian Xin Vegetarian Food Court for a hearty meal? With sustainable food sources, health-conscious recipes and low prices, everyone’s included in this bout of community spirit.
