Whampoa is well known among Singaporeans as being one of the prime locations to find cheap, good quality food. But what can vegetarians expect? Whampoa does actually have a lot of pretty good vegetarian options for those on a meat-free diet - The only problem is, most of them close by 1pm. For those visiting Whampoa in the evening or weekends, you will not find many open vegetarian eateries in the area. For today's post, I will be doing a quick review on Hometown Vegetarian. This is a very simple stall, which specialise in their bee hoon and dishes.
Homeland Vegetarian
Location: Blk 81 Whampoa Drive
Contact: Unknown
Opening Hours: Unknown
I know a lot of people are sometimes a little critical of my blog because I feature a lot of mock meat dishes. But, believe it or not, my usual meals from hawker centres and coffee shops (like this one) just consist of vegetables. For this Bee Hoon and Dishes meal I opted for their eggplant, mushroom and bittergourd dishes. The quality of the bee hoon is pretty good, not too soft and pretty fresh. The dishes that I selected were pretty typical. Nothing flavour wise stood out as being out of the ordinary.
Price: $2.80. 6/10
Conclusion - The problem with vegetarian stalls in hawker centres or coffee shops is that the food is too similar. There is only a small percentage stalls that leap out as being something unique or special. Hometown Vegetarian is one of those stalls selling the typical average tasting trite fare. Decent in taste.
