東方小祇園齋菜

When I was still a secondary school student, I usually went to the bus stop in front of this restaurant to take the bus home. Just knowing that it is a veggie restaurant, and I was not particularly interested in the cuisine, I did not pay any attention then. I was surprised to know later that they had such a long history, opening in 1905. Today, we came to Wanchai to try it out.Even though it was already 1:30pm, the restaurant was packed, but the staff helped to arrange a table for us. Having renovated, it has a neat ambience, with bright lighting, and some Chinese calligraphy decorating the walls.Starting with the most common, Buddha’s Vegetarian Pot Stewed Delight 佛門齋滷味 ($72 for small), it is an assorted mix of different delicacies, using wheat gluten to make vegetarian char siu, duck kidney, chicken, plus the different flavors of sweet and sour, curry, and oyster sauce gluten. Apart from the sweet and sour gluten, which is quite nice, the rest are only mediocre.  We also order two dishes, including Fried Pipa Bean Curd 琵琶豆腐 ($88) and Braised Monkey’s Head Mushroom with Broccoli 鮮猴頭菇扒西蘭花 ($90). The pipa bean curd is quite nice, with the deep-fried minced bean curd balls soaking up the oyster sauce which is quite nice, and there are also some choi sum on the side for complement.The monkey’s head mushroom has a good texture, and no wonder many people would use this to replace meat as it has certain similarities in taste. The chef cooked this together with some straw mushroom and broccoli, but the broccoli unfortunately has not been soaked and cleaned well, and we did find a worm which apparently put us off.To go with the dishes, we have Congee with Sweet Corn and Diced Mushroom 粟米菇粒粥 ($55). The portion is enough for two people, with the congee having a nice cotton texture, with the sweet corn and diced mushroom giving a bit of crunchy bite and fragrance.Service is decent, but we can at the same time see a neighborhood ambience from the chats and dialogues between the staff and customers. The bill on the day was $329 and while the food is not particularly impressive, it is an anchor and should be cherished as an old HK establishment.…Read More

I had lunch with my extended family. I was a bit worried due to the recent reviews but today(at least) the staff was very friendly and honest. Each time we overordered something, she actually would tell us maybe less is enough and she was right. We were very full even with her suggestion of ordering less. She did mention the shop was bought by the owners so they are less worried about the rent. She also told us to order at the storefront instead of inside the restaurant for takeaway dim sum as the price is cheaper. The whole experience was quite comfortable.For the food, I was impressed that for the items, despite being deep fried(dim sum) or fried noodles/rice, none of them were very oily. The plates weren't even too shiny when we finished it. The saltiness for all dishes were well controlled except for the truffle based noodles. The walnut sweet soup was aromatic and a nice end. The price is a bit expensive but overall a nice place to eat. …Read More

好少食齋既我，今日突然好想食齋係朋友推介下就試下呢間啦叫左一份細既外賣雜齋 - $55有甜酸齋，叉燒齋同腐皮卷甜酸齋同叉燒齋無乜特別，味道唔錯但腐皮卷比我想像中好好食開頭以為會無味，但食落有D咸味，下次可以再食…Read More

知道呢一間素食店喺灣仔已經開咗好多好多年不過都係今日先至第一次試到佢嘅手勢，評價係價錢比較高份量比較少味道只屬一般。叫咗幾樣嘢最好食就係呢個琵琶豆腐，豆腐入面好多材料，而且都幾新鮮，唔係一種整定晒喺度有人叫先至炸出嚟。第二好食嘅就係呢一鍋竹笙素生翅，一小鍋都有8碗仔左右，入面d竹笙、木耳絲等都好新鮮。排第三日就係五柳仙斑(即係芋頭魚)同埋香脆蜜瓜奶，呢兩款嘅未到都只做一般，芋頭魚比想像中細條，炸蜜瓜奶原本以為係一條，點知已經切咗一半得一粒。佛門齋滷味就最令人失望，$72一碟細size真係性價比極低，真係可以skip唔食都無損失。…Read More

上次嚟小祗園食素已經大概十年前。 這十年間有很多新派/自助素食餐廳的出現， 令到素食款式及口味上有很大轉變。 而舊派素菜餐館，東方小祇園相信會是其中一個代表。打開餐牌，除了舊有的素食菜式外， 另有新款素食菜式。 但來得這裏就當然想再嘗回舊有嘅味道， 簡單地點了酸齋(細)， 羅漢齋炒麵， 福建炒飯， 素一品煲。以前如果有人問我香港邊到有好食嘅酸齋，我會答小祗園是不錯的選擇。 但今日碟酸齋，無論賣相,味道上跟以前比較，真的是有㸃比下去。羅漢齌炒麵， 福建炒飯。 用料非常多，份量夠大，味道亦算不錯。另外素一品煲， 別以為會用上素蝦，素海參，素鮑魚等材料，以上嘅食材全都沒有。用上的是竹笙，黃耳，發菜， 冬菇等天然食材。 其實我會入更喜歡用上這些天然素食材， 比用上加工素肉食材好很多。.…Read More

睇到電視介紹依間有多年歷史嘅齋舖，所以買外賣返屋企試吓。羅漢齋炒麵 雪菜素肉炆米炸春卷腐皮卷鹹水角芋角👌🏼芋頭糕 、蘿蔔糕、齋滷味（除咗酸齋之外）👌🏼總結: 試完一次 無下一次…Read More

今日5點同老婆行完街，正在考慮吃什麼呢？就想到差不多十年前幫襯過呢間齋菜鋪，當時印象還不錯，就同老婆入去坐低. 當時由於非食飯時間，目測只有約4枱客. 叫了茶後就看看餐牌，發覺價錢一點也不便宜，小菜要$90，炒粉麵炒飯也要$80，但由於我同老婆肚餓關係，也不計較立即下單，等了一會兒終於見到有個男待應經過，便叫唔該落單，但個待應好似當我隱形，就咁行過，我心諗可能在忙吧，就等咗一陣，但過了幾分鐘仍然不見有反應，唯有起身找其他人落單，原來發覺個待應就係附近閒著，我立即問他可不可以给我們落單呀？哈哈佢居然一點反應都唔俾你，態度好似話你吹漲咩我係唔采你呀，之後有一個年紀大一點嘅應該是部長吧就走過來，講要落咩呀？我就投訴了一句點解你同事態度咁差㗎，點知佢立即還拖我依家都同你落單啦仲想點呀？跟住佢將手一伸，意思就係唔食就走啦！好嘢算你狠我唯有同老婆離坐，各位如果你接受咁樣嘅服務態度都願幫襯嘅我都無話可說啦。…Read More

灣仔齋鋪 就會諗起呢間 。2人去 食個中午飯， 叫左 一味 鴛鴦炒飯、夠大份， 完全感覺自己不似食 齋菜😆， 因為炒飯 有水準、茄底甜酸味道開胃， 白底 夠濃味。 加埋三併齋（酸齋、 齋叉燒、齋鴨腎）好味😋👍👍👍…Read More

以前小時侯老爸就經常會在這買盒齊滷味回家加餐，而我一直不知是這裡，只覺得點解在出面啲齊滷味冇小時侯好食。今日招呼外國親友，1行5人早一點點5點己就坐，都已有幾枱客，招呼好好。一邊食一邊聊天，老爸才講起以前因為他上司食齊，所以成班同事每月都有一兩餐在這開飯，不過就是冇帶過我來5人點了8個餸佛門齊滷味，比一般齊店的好味。羅漢齊炒麵，麵底香脆，不過個羅漢齊的汁可少啲，否則不可久放要立即食。上海酸辣湯，用素蝦代替了肉絲。甜，酸，辣3味好平均。秋葵白雲耳，白雲耳爽脆可口，加上陳醋，特別開胃。五香素玉蓮藕餅，冇咩特別，如不是特別的鐘意炸物，可以不點。鮮竹蜜豆炒貝柳，色彩鮮艷。翡翠法輪卷，汁太多，個皮可再炸香口啲。其實得5個人，埋單唔記得叫佢改返人數這是暫時我食過的齊店之中，唯一有興趣再回頭的一間…Read More

翡翠法輪卷/整個菜濕潤的，吃起來喉嚨好舒服；腐皮柔軟，咬到裡面金菇超爽脆，口感豐富。炸芋角/外表炸得超級鬆脆，吃起來就像完全沒有負擔；芋泥綿密，調味得宜，不會濃味到搶走食材原有味道。雜齋/ （細）味道有調教過，不會太酸 那喉；堂食份量少，而且相比外賣的價錢貴很多。麻婆豆腐伊麵/出餐快。份量不算少，但愈吃愈滋味還不夠吃，可能麵濕潤而且花椒味很香。伊麵軟硬度及芡汁稀杰度適中，第一口就有好香好濃郁的花椒味，豆腐又多又嫩滑，但就欠缺麻婆香辣；三色椒清甜。…Read More

📍東方小祇園齋菜灣仔軒尼詩道241號首先菜館地方好寬敞，乾淨，給人一種心寧上平靜嘅感覺。侍應都友善。幫襯了三次，多位朋友口中係好食齋菜，但略貴一點。我都覺得略貴一點，但勝在地方企理，齋菜味道不錯，價錢貴一點都可接受啦。兩個人食叫了一碟福建炒飯($92-HKD)，料多，大碟，熱辣辣。一條細嘅五柳仙班($78-HKD)，今次係第二次叫，其實係芋頭魚。呢度做得味道剛好，外皮又鬆化。第一次同今次仍然覺得好好味。😋另外呢度嘅糕點要推介芝麻糕，好重芝麻味👍🏼五味齋也不錯😄羅漢齋炒麵😋…Read More

因為家中長輩住灣仔，已經幫襯東方小袛園幾十年，所以我都已經係由細食到大。所以有時我都會去灣仔緬懷一下，今日去到就有一張枱，係一個人嘅專屬座位🤪我相信冇人會明白我對齋鹵味嘅熱愛程度，唔知點解我真係好鍾意食齋鹵味，所以我今日除咗叫我最鍾意食嘅羅漢齋湯麵之外，我都叫咗一客齋滷味，寧願食唔晒都用盒帶走羅漢齋湯麵嘅湯底同埋啲餸都出奇地好食，其實我食完碗麵之後已經好飽好滿足。不過我都要新鮮食齋滷味，每一件都係回憶，好好味，不過最後食咗一半都飽到要問店員買外賣盒🤣🤣…Read More

開素食店都如此不友善，店員全部兇神惡殺，買個外賣都要受你氣。點知盒 茄子豆腐飯出到嚟，85%都係芡，豆腐得4舊，茄子3舊（油炸，但畀芡浸到認唔出係茄子）收你$45，你良心過意得去嗎? 隔離兩餸飯賣緊30蚊一盒飯，飯又多過你，芡又少過你，恃住自己有啲歷史就咁樣做生意，理應被社會汰。簡而言之，食物非常無誠意，門口一班阿姐企喺度，亦十分兇神惡殺。It’s rare for a vegetarian place to give out unfriendly vibe, but they did it. Somehow they managed. With a swarm of old ladies crowding the entrance, warning you to go away. However this humble patron didn’t listen to her guts and went in regardless, and had her day ruined. $45 for a teeny-itsy-bitsy portion of plain rice, and a box full of brown goo (YES. BROWN. GOO) that supposedly should be the sauce :) The menace in this place does not only exude through its servers, but also very literally from their food. If you want to waste away a random $45 from your pocket , this is the spot for you to splurge on nothing but empty calories that taste incredibly, outstandingly terrible. When Darwin talked about evolution some centuries ago, I think he was also referring to this— the elimination of horrifying diners, running strictly on an honor system, but should have been washed out, flooded away, and wiped off the surface of the Earth, long ago, as time passes on.Thanks for nothing.…Read More

今日為大家介紹灣仔嘅東方小袛園齋菜，相信好多人都認識甚至食過，我就第一次食，原來係百年老店，唔怪得啲店員都好有「態度」。😅見到有點心食就試下點心啦，加多碗湯麵添。點心 $26-$29，款款都有兩件，唔算貴。👌🥕 蘿蔔糕 $26講真未試過响齋鋪食過好食嘅蘿蔔糕，唔係凍嘅就係死實實成舊都係粉。呢個蘿蔔糕真係超符期望，雖然我影咗好耐相，但食果陣都係辣口嘅（戴頭盔先，可能我好彩咁啱新鮮煎好比我食到），而且完全唔粉，入口溶化，世界級。🌐🥟 菇粒蒸粉果 $26粉果係鮮蝦粉果 style 唔係潮州粉果 style 。後生啲嘅應該唔知咩係鮮蝦粉果，即係扁身啲嘅。皮係厚嘅，餡料冇素肉（sorry 唔記得有咩，都係啲菇粒呀，一粒粒果啲啦 🤣）。唔係話好驚艷，但我好鍾意佢好有家鄉風味，令我諗起細個果陣阿嫲整嘅粉果。👵🍤 荔茸炸芋角 $26呢個真係唔熱，涼涼哋，但都仲脆，同幾好味。😀🍜 京都炸醬湯麵 $58見到京都，即係酸酸甜甜啦。麵就係粗麵，好淋，冇牙都食到。肉碎好少，一心想食素肉嘅朋友會失望。餸就好多，有蕃茄，冬菇，青椒，麵筋，雲耳。味道都 ，okay 㗎。呢間同茶樓一樣可以揀茶，茶錢 $12 位。本身見啲店員態度麻麻哋（後尾又好似 okay 返啲），都冇咩期望，點知啲嘢食都唔錯，未試過嘅素友經過開灣仔不妨一試。🤤…Read More
