Guangzhou Vegetarian Restaurants

Guangzhou Vegetarian Restaurants, Guangzhou Vegan Restaurants

An increasing number of vegetarian restaurants blossom in Guangzhou in recent years. People nowadays not only related vegetarianism to religion but more to a healthier way of living. Foodies love the city for its authentic Cantonese cuisine, and vegetarians or anybody who enjoys the odd meat-free meal can certainly enjoy one of the cities veg-focused dining establishments. We recommend the following 7 basic Chinese vegetarian restaurants:

Yi Xin SuShi Vegetarian Restaurant (ZhongTai Plaza 怡新素食中泰广场店)

This vegetarian restaurant is located right next to Guangzhou Guangzhou East railway station. It's very convenient and easy to find.
