In Singapore, a paradise for food lovers, LingZhi Vegetarian @ Liat Towers is like a shining pearl, standing out among numerous vegetarian restaurants. Since its establishment in 1991, it has accumulated a large number of loyal fans through years of careful operation and has become a sacred place in the hearts of vegetarians.
As we stepped into the restaurant, a fresh and elegant atmosphere greeted us. The wooden tables and chairs, combined with soft lighting, created a warm and quiet dining environment, as if shutting out the hustle and bustle of the outside world. We instantly felt relaxed and ready for a vegetarian feast.
Our group of three, after comparing the prices of a la carte dishes, was attracted by the vegetarian buffet priced at 39.9++. Considering the rich variety and unique flavors of the dishes, we hesitated for a moment before choosing the buffet. When selecting dishes, we found that some of the signature ones were still within the buffet range. We ordered a la carte dishes such as Black Truffle Soup, Vegetarian Dumplings, Vegetarian Eel, Tofu Skin Dim Sum, and Sweet and Sour Vegetarian Pork.
The Black Truffle Soup was the first to arrive. The rich and thick soup exuded the unique aroma of black truffle, with the perfect blend of the rich mushroom flavor and the fragrance of the truffle. The Vegetarian Dumplings had soft and chewy wrappers filled with delicious vegetarian fillings. The Vegetarian Eel, with its appearance and texture somewhat similar to real eel, had delicate “fish” patterns and tasted great with the special sauce. The Tofu Skin Dim Sum had been processed tofu skin wrapped around the filling, but it felt a bit dry, as if it had been sitting out for a while. The Sweet and Sour Vegetarian Pork was appetizing with its bright color. The outer coating was crispy, and the “meat” inside was tender and juicy. The sweet and sour sauce was perfectly absorbed, making it hard to stop eating.
The final dishes, Oatmeal Pumpkin and Truffle Fried Rice, brought the vegetarian feast to a climax. The Oatmeal Pumpkin was sweet but not greasy, with the soft pumpkin and oatmeal interwoven, bringing a sense of fullness with each bite. The Truffle Fried Rice fully showcased the unique aroma of black truffle. The chewy noodles were rich in ingredients, and each bite was intoxicating.
Overall, we rated this experience around four stars, slightly on the lower side. Next time we come, we will definitely try more a la carte dishes to further explore the culinary treasures of this vegetarian restaurant.
Great food and great service! I don't mind becoming vegetarian now!

Char siew pastry, 咸水角, carrot cake and yam puffs. This really impressed us. No wonder LingZhi is a top brand. They're comparable if not better than non-vegetarian dim sum, especially the mind-blowing char siew pastry.
An awesome party celebration for my mum at Ling Zhi Restaurant @ Liat Towers. As it was still during the CNY period, they only serve CNY set menu with vegetarian yusheng, pumpkin soup, noodles, vegetable and desserts.
Was expecting only mock meat but this was awesome. Super chunky sticks of mushrooms, chestnut, fried beancurd skin, capsicum topped with savoury peanut sauce and fried mint leaves #vegetarian #lingzhivegetarian #yum
