[CLOSED] Photosynthesis Cafè

2️⃣Mala shroom baked rice [$10.90] .
Really sad to hear that @photosynthesis.cafe would be ceasing operations on 23rd January and that’s just ~1 week away 😢. As the name suggests, the dishes here are all plant-derived, vegetarian and meat-free! 🌱Go green and save the animals, yay or nay? 💚 Was recently introduced to this cafe by one of my vegetarian friends and I was certainly impressed at both dishes that we’ve tried. The salted egg pasta is served with deep fried ‘pork’, ‘prawns’ and a copious amount of shimeiji mushrooms, spiced up with fresh cut chilli padi and curry leaves for an added fragrance. The characteristic salty notes is definitely prominent here, subtle and lingering, albeit with a creamy, thick mouthfeel that might get a tad overwhelming for the faint-hearted after some time. As a heavy-hearted consumer, I truly enjoyed this dish and would gladly polish off an entire portion on my own! 😋 On the other hand, the Mala shroom baked rice didn’t disappoint as well, coming with an aromatic fragrance of Mala spice that was flavourful and prominent to both the sense (and scent). Comprising of brown rice stir fried with crunchy corns and chewy shimeiji mushrooms, the top layer of cheese is baked to an ideal golden brown perfection with crisp, crusty edges and a soft, gooey centre. Once again, not for the faint hearted but as for me, it was a blissful experience with the melted baked cheese adding a tangy piquant note to the flavorful and aromatic Mala fried rice .

PS: @photosynthesis.cafe, do consider bringing back the old version of salted egg ‘pork’ rice with sunny side up too!🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Would really hope to be back one last time for this before the shop ceases operation and bids farewell next week! 👋🏻😭 .

Lion Mane Curry Baked Rice for $10.90. The lion mane "meat" had a great texture and the rice had a really nice flavour too. It was overall a very satisfying meal and the portions were generous. The mains range from $8.90 to $10.90 and include rice bowls, ramen and pasta. There are many vegan options for those who don't take egg/dairy. The place was very empty which was surprising considering how good the food was. The service staff were friendly and considerate as well.

I would definitely come back again!

This is still the best and affordable vegetarian that I've ever had!!!!

Came here once and I will definitely come back here again to try other dishes!!!!
