Than Hsiang Vegetarian Food

March 4, 2008

Here I would like to recomment you the vegetarian food selling at Than Hsiang Vegetarian Canteen. The canteeen is located at the ground floor of Wisma Than Hsiang. A vegetarian rice set is just cost for RM4. It’s a self service meal that you can pick from all the available dishes. The RM4 will eventually go towards Wan Ching Yuen Old Folks Home, which is located on the upper floor of the Wisma Than Hsiang. You can eat and making donation at the same time. To kill two birds with one stone, very meaningful indeed. You can also “ta pao” (take away) the rice set. The packaging material used is the biodegradable material, which is different from polyfoam.

The food here is tasty as well, see the following photos from what we used to “ta pao”.
