Welcome to Aljunied. Looking for Vegetarian places?

There’s a few vegetarian restaurants around this area beside Aljunied MRT Station, with True Veggie being one of them that has an outdoor eating area.

Went for something simple yet unique fragrant aroma taste with their Xiang Chun Fried Rice.

Located inside the coffee shop just beside Aljunied MRT Station, this vegetarian stall has been serving the neighbourhood for many years.

Lots of ingredients already on display early in the morning.

Victor Veggie probably does not need much introduction these days — the stall at Circuit Road Food Centre had gotten much attention and even a feature on Our Grandfather Story for their interesting vegan creations. We have had also given Victor Veggie a visit previously some time back, giving their Vegan Otah a try. Ever since then, we have been making our way down to Victor Veggie wanting to give their other famed item, the Vegan Satay a go. That being said, Victor Veggie does seem to operate on a rather random schedule with the stall being closed during our multiple visits to the food centre on weekday evenings — so it was a surprise to find them open on one weekday evening that we made a spontaneous attempt to the food centre to try our luck again. It does seem that Victor Veggie does scale down their operations in the evening — was told by the only person manning the stall that evening that only Vegan Otah and Vegan Satay were available, which was exactly what we were in for that evening. For those whom are curious, Victor Veggie’s menu does list a wide variety of items — this includes that of Vegan Satay Bee Hoon, Vegan Bak Kut Teh with Rice / Noodle, Veg Sweet & Sour Pork Rice, Veg Mock Mutton Chop Rice and many more.

Just like any other satay stall that one would find elsewhere, the Vegan Satay here is grilled only upon order. There is a minimum order of 10 pieces of satay here just like any other satay stall as well. Upon ordering, the guy manning the stall will swish the satay sticks in what seems to be a liquid infused with turmeric before placing them on the grill. On first sight, the Vegan Satay looks exactly like what one would expect out of a regular satay made from meat — there are definitely charred bits visible on the satay from the grilling; in fact they do bear the aesthetics of how a chunky rendition of chicken satay would have looked. It also comes with a small bowl of satay sauce on the side, as well as some cucumbers and onions just like what one would do usually as well. Going straight for a stick of the satay, we would say that there is a light hint of mock meat flavour that lingers around with the Vegan Satay here — though we must say that the chunky bite from the mock meat and that hint of turmeric and slight char makes it comes especially close to the real deal. That being said, the experience becomes heightened when one dips the Vegan Satay into the satay sauce on the side — the satay sauce being especially thick and gloopy; filled with peanut chunks through and through for that nutty punch that makes this almost quite no different from a regular chicken satay. It is little wonder why the Vegan Satay at Victor Veggie has been quite the talk even amongst meat eaters — it is indeed as close to the real deal as how it gets.

Considering how Victor Veggie isn’t exactly an entirely new stall and has been in operations for quite a while, it does seem that Victor Veggie is one of the stalls that takes a lot of pride in their creations — all that whilst also being especially inventive with their vegan dishes; almost as though that the creativity seems to originate from their cravings since these are not quite items that one would typically find in a vegan / vegetarian hawker stall. We were pretty satisfied with the Vegan Otah when we had tried it previously a couple of years ago; also by chance when we were passing by the food centre with zero intentions to have anything initially, only to find them open on a late afternoon during a weekend. In terms of how close the Vegan Satay is to replicate that of actual satay prepared with meat against the same for their Vegan Otah, we personally would prefer their Vegan Otah a little more — there is lesser of a noticeable mock meat flavour with the Vegan Otah than that of the Vegan Satay. That being said, the Vegan Satay from Victor Veggie is a pretty well-executed version of a non-meat satay before all that plant-based meat became a thing — definitely worth giving a try for those whom are especially curious about it!

Air-conditioned place so you could enjoy some healthy meal here. Check the menu on the board to see what they offered for the day.

Their vegetarian curry chicken rice is the special item on the day I visits. It is definitely a comfortable meal with pieces of mocked meat made from beancurd and the curry.

Opened by an ordained nun, it is like a respite here, it's quiet and the staff are warm & friendly. We had the dessert Sesame paste ($4.50) & Almond paste ($3.80) and brought our own weiqi board to play. The dessert was thick, creamy and grainy. I particularly love how rich the sesame paste was.

Plus, it fits our weiqi time with yinyang elements. Ps. Prices are nett.

We were impressed by the variety of dishes on the menu and all the dishes are affordable too! Took a long time before deciding on getting the minced pork porridge ($4). The porridge was really creamy and flavourful by itself, topped with a small portion of minced meat that's probably made of mushrooms and some peanuts and spring onions. They probably added quite a bit of sesame oil to the porridge but we're not complaining as we love the taste. The serving size is really huge as well, so it might be a good idea to share between two if you're a small eater. #reducefoodwaste

The place is a coffeeshop style eatery located a short walk from paya lebar mrt station along a stretch of vegetarian eateries/bakery/teahouse. Currently only allows dining in for up to 2pax. Will be back to try other items!

Specially made my way to circuit road to get this vegetarian food for wife.

Wife absolutely loved this. It really tasted like real otah.

Store owners were very friendly.

Tucked away at Circuit Road Food Centre near Mattar MRT Station, Victor Veggie stood out from the other vegetarian food stalls there with their @foodkingnoc ⭐️⭐️⭐️ satay and otah. Did you know that Uncle Victor has been making vegetarian satay for over 40 years now?

Made out of soy protein, the satay skewers were freshly grilled upon order, to the perfect point where the “meat” had those charred edges. Texture-wise, it was ridiculously tender and had a slight crunch from those burnt bits. If I really had to nitpick, I’d say I wished the peanut sauce was more robust.

P.S. But frankly speaking, their satay skewers were already great on its own😋.

Having seen Our Grandfather Story’s Instagram video of this place, it was difficult to not jump on the opportunity of visiting Victor Veggie when passing by the area. Heard some nice things about their Vegetarian Otah, and having tried it myself, this is really worth the mention. More often than not, one would expect vegetarian dishes to bear its own unique flavour and texture that is different from its meaty counterparts — this was on-point however; the fillings comes with a springy bite that one usually associates Otah with, not to mention that punchy rempah that provides all of that flavour with the smokiness from the banana leaves and a slight spiciness that should be manageable for those with moderate tolerance for spiciness. With all the rage over Impossible/Beyond Meat, this is like the grand old dame to them all — and still one that even truly impresses even to this day. Impressed I am!

Have been hearing so much about Victor Veggie and we finally came by to try their famed soy protein satay and otah! They were amazing. I wouldn’t say they taste exactly like the meat version, but these were tender and moist, very unlike usual mock meats. There’s even this slight sweet glaze, crisped edges and a light smoky char to it. I liked having these sticks on its own, even without the accompanying peanut sauce. Stall owner and helpers were really friendly!
