Huayan Temple Vegetarian Restaurant 华岩寺素食餐厅
This Restaurant is located in the Huayan Temple, so if you pay visit to Huayan Temple you can drop by this restaurant. As usual, the food is really greasy and really spicy, so if you do not want to eat spicy food, try to know a way to ask for what you do and do not want. Anyway, the food is decent, and due to its location in the scenery area, there are less people even in weekend. The portions are quite big, but a bit pricey for the dishes. Recommend taking your own drinks since the overpriced bottled stuff and do not offer water or tea. There will be people playing Mahjong around. The atmosphere is not exactly service-oriented. However, the temple grounds are actually really amazing to see. If you packed some extras, this temple could be a really nice place to lunch.
