Top 10 Vegetarian Restaurants In KL 2019

Top 10 Vegetarian Restaurants in KL

#1 Indian @ Chat Masala

There’ll be so many vegetarian options, it will be hard to choose including the fact that everything served is prepared to get you smiling and fat! Chat Masala is a restaurant that showed us how amazing Indian vegetarian food can be. Located in the hearts of Brickfields, stop by on slow mornings to have a Dosai (RM2.50) for breakfast and you won’t regret it! It’s warm, a tad tart from fermentation and sufficiently crisp on the edges. In case gravy is not served with your dosai at once, don’t forget to ask for dhal and some coconut chutney to seal the deal. The eatery also cooks up North Indian bites that are more affordable than most so get the palak paneer (cottage with blend spinach. trust me, it tastes a whole lotta better) at some gobi Manchurian and gulped it all down with a nice hot madras coffee. Oohhhh boy

#3 Mexican Food @ Sala KL

Mexican food revolves around two things only. Meat and CHILLI. Sala KL is here to prove you wrong! Owned by a true Malaysian who takes Spanish classes to further strengthen his love for the food and culture, Mr. Fauzi, a vegan himself aimed to create a magical gastronomy to the taste buds without killing anything (HAHAHA) and succeeded.

Expect Mexican staples with a vegetarian twist, like a controversial BB Jack Taco (RM7). The use of barbecued jackfruit works nicely with spicy jalapeno, sour cream and pico de gallo, resulting in a sweet, tangy and delightfully pungent flavor unlike any other. Also delicious is the Shrooms Taco (RM7), which relies on the mainstay of mushrooms and black beans to hit the spot. For diners who prefer to build their own, the burrito bar allows customization for RM18 a pop — the cilantro lime brown rice will guarantee the burrito a surefire win. Served with a side of plantain chips, the warming Vegan Chilli (RM7) speaks for itself through a satisfying meld of vegan cheese, toasty beans, and lentils.

#4 Thai @ Kon Rak Pak Vegetarian Restaurant

If I was a vegetarian (I’m not, do not hate) and if there’s one thing I’ll miss having, it’d be Thai food! Googling Kon Rak Pak eased me out of my fears as a future vegetarian. One can sample a true Thai adventure, courtesy of your taste buds, at this humble restaurant serving one a few but the very best vegetarian Thai delights at Kon Rak Pak Vegetarian Restaurant. Begin the journey with some mango salad, fire it up with their signature well-loved green curry and cry it out with some authentic rubies with coconut milk 🙂 Seal the deal, my friend!

#5 Smoothie Bowl @ Rubberduck

With a lovely outside seating area along the pedestrian streets of Hartamas Shopping Centre, Rubberduck is always worth a visit especially for their Smoothie Bowl which is a favorite out of many on Rubberduck’s breakfast list. Colorful, healthy and flavourful, it’s definitely a love at first sight. Topped with fresh fruits, granola, flaxseeds, and coconut flakes, their Berry/ mango and ‘Your Pick’ of a  Smoothie Bowl is as delicious as it is nutritious. Truly a true treat for your body and soul.

#8 Organic Vegetarian Fresh Mart and Restaurant

Plenty of Vegetables, Portions to fill you up and even let you share and most importantly worth the price! Set within a supermarket that stocks Subang Jaya’s most varied organic options, this humble spot also offers their ingredients cooked and ready to eat! Favoured here is the Bak Kut Teh Soup (from RM17), a claypot of veggies, mushrooms, tofu and broth that isn’t at all pretentious, but unique in its wholesome herbal stock flavours. Substituting flavour-packed seaweed for meat, the Seaweed Rice (RM10.50) packs plenty of umami flavour alongside mixed vegetables to boot. The use of unpolished brown rice also makes these dishes excellent for the health conscious, as well as diabetics. Since Organic Vegetarian is first and foremost a mart, ordering greens comes with a guarantee for freshness. Pick and eat from RM 5, its hardly anything but a bargain!
