It's a parking lot. What else is there to say?!
This is the best place to eat in PA if you’re vegetarian or vegan! The menu has so many options for meat substitutes, even seafood which I hardly ever see in other vegan restaurants. The new steamed buns were so good! The dough was perfect and the filling had amazing flavor, texture, and spice.
this is an absolute gem. probably the best vegan food I have ever had. restaurant is fully vegan. owner is so kind. I gasped when I bit into my bao bun because it was so good!!!
