Ligongdi is a famous night market bar street in Suzhou, with all kinds of foreign restaurants, crayfish, and bars. In the midst of the hustle and bustle, a quiet world was carved out in Ligongdi, where the largest vegetarian buffet restaurant in Suzhou was opened.
The Lvye Fragrance brand was born in Taiwan, and Suzhou Restaurant is one of the franchised branches. The restaurant claims that in order to ensure the quality of the ingredients, all the vegetables used come from its own farm in the Guniujiang Scenic Area of Anhui Province, while the imitation meat ingredients are shipped from Taiwan. In addition to vegetables, imitation meat dishes, there are sushi, pastries, freshly ground coffee, ice cream, drinks and hot pot a variety of dishes to supply, lunch and evening dishes are the same, the price is 79 yuan / person, the elderly over 63 years old can enjoy a preferential price of 55 yuan / person on non-holidays.
The buffet area has a wide variety of dishes, including spicy chicken, vegetarian eel, vegetarian steak and salmon, which are the most popular imitation meat dishes, and several dishes are quite realistic in appearance and taste. In addition to imitation meat dishes, there are also stir-fried okra, green vegetables, fried lettuce and other vegetable dishes, which are much lighter in taste than imitation meat dishes. Mushrooms are prepared in a variety of ways, from stir-fried king oyster mushrooms and white mushrooms, to lion's mane mushrooms and porcini mushrooms cooked in clay pots, as well as tea tree mushrooms and crab mushrooms made into soups. In addition, there are two other snacks that are also very popular, so diners should pay attention to them when picking up their meals. One is black rice with local characteristics, this dish is deeply loved by elderly customers, often in short supply, the glutinous rice dyed and steamed with black rice leaves is black and bright, compared to the black rice in Huashan seclusion, the green field fragrance trace also adds a lot of red dates, peanuts and melon seeds when making, and the glutinous taste also has the fragrance of nuts.
The second is the ancient flavor of almond tea, which is a rare drink in Suzhou vegetarian restaurants, and many customers go for it. In contrast to some shops in the market that use almond flour directly, the production of Green Fields still follows the traditional method, which is made by whipping almonds and glutinous rice, which is much more complicated. The store will generally wash the glutinous rice and soak it for 5-8 hours the day before, so that the glutinous rice can absorb enough water, so that it is easy to be brittle and easy to juice when whipping, and the almonds need to be soaked for 10 minutes before whipping until the outer peel can be torn off. After the two ingredients are prepared, put them together in a blender, add water and beat at low speed until the color is milky white; After whipping and filtering out the solid particles, finally bring to a boil. The shape of the almond tea on the table is no different from milk, and there is a small amount of almond residue at the bottom of the cup, and you can smell the strong aroma of glutinous rice when drinking.
Located at the entrance of Ligongdi Phase 4, the restaurant is spacious and has a great sense of design. In line with the decoration concept of Shanghai Fu He Hui Restaurant, the store also emphasizes that "it is better to eat without meat than to live without bamboo", and hundreds of bamboos are hung on the top of the buffet area arranged in a wavy shape, which is more exaggerated than Fu He Hui. In addition to bamboo, there are also greenery in the corners and tables of the dining area, giving the space a vibrant look. The restaurant service staff are well-trained and enthusiastic, and they are proactive and timely in adding new dishes and receiving plates. On weekends, it's best to book in advance, and next to the restaurant is the underground car park, which is easy to park and drive to.
