Chi Lin Vegetarian 志蓮素齋
Tucked behind the waterfall in Nan Lian Garden, this serene Buddhist restaurant serves refined vegetarian Cantonese cooking with a curtain of falling water outside the glass.
Operated under the Chi Lin Nunnery, it runs lunch, afternoon tea and dinner daily — book ahead for a window table at weekends.
The vegetarian dim sum at lunch, with a pot of floral tea to match the scenery.
