This is THE spot for Chinese/vegetarian food. It’s so delicious I don’t know where to start. Fresh vegetables, organic tofu, soy products and mushrooms, especially the shiitake mushrooms are divine! The restaurant has a really fresh, clean and professional feeling to it.
I take everyone I know here, this place is a pearl! Last time I took my mom and she absolutely loved it. Be sure to call and book a table the day before or even earlier, it’s a very popular spot and the restaurant is pretty small.
You should definitely eat Chinese style, which means ordering different dishes and then sharing them. The dishes are pretty large so three persons can easily split two dishes, which means it’s both cheap and a big taste-experience!
They don’t use eggs or dairy products, though often different kinds of nuts. The service is wonderful and you’re welcome to peek into the kitchen. If you have any questions at all, they have the answers. Once I came there with a friend who was allergic to all kind of nuts, they were really careful and sweet, and the food ended up being delicious as usual.

Don’t expect the usual vegetarian foods in this restaurant. The Chinese vegetarian cuisine is all about how to mimic meat dishes without using meat. And this restaurant does this perfectly. Even if you don’t like vegetarian foods much, therefore, you will love it because you will feel as if you were eating meat. Another plus is that the menu includes some spicy Sichuan dishes, which are rare in Stockholm. Finally, their drink menu is unexpectedly wide-ranging. They serve various kinds of Chinese tea, of course, but they also offer rather unfamiliar types of beer, including tasty Belgian one.
