Loving Hut

The first Loving Hut opened in Taiwan just 3 years ago. Since then, it has been established as the fastest growing international vegan chain of restaurants with over 120 branches (in 19 countries!) worldwide. Wow!



My former roommate introduced me to The Loving Hut a year and a half ago. I wasn't that impressed the first time around, so it wasn't until recently that Jon and I went back and this time was a much better experience.

I love when restaurants have photos of what their food looks like. It makes a world of difference when you're vegetarian and you can see the type of "meat" they use in advance; some textures/styles/brands of "meat" aren't very good so it helps knowing what you might like and what to avoid. When I saw their online menu was chock-full of photos I was very pleased.

First we started with an appetizer of golden wontons, the plum dipping sauce was great.



Because of the online menu, I knew going in that I wanted to try the Golden Noodle Soup with Wontons.



The broth was delicious!



Jon got the grilled sensation, grilled soy chick'n with rice and vegetables.



We finished up with dessert, a slice of carrot cake and cheesecake.
