Hi there!
This is my first post on a vegetarian food-related book.
A couple of months ago (17th July 2011, to be precise), I purchased the following book from First Edition Bookstores in Damansara Utama:
The book lists out vegetarian restaurants in Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Philippines and Indonesia. If I was to travel to any of these countries, I’d definitely take this book along as a guide.
Price: RM 30.00
ISSN: 2222-6494
And I just learnt something new, from good ‘ol Wikipedia. ISSN stands for International Standard Serial Number (as opposed to ISBN), which makes this technically not a book but a “periodical publication”.
Anyways… FYI, I went to First Edition Bookstores this past weekend, and they still have copies.
For each restaurant, details provided include its name (ok duh, i know), address, phone number, type of cuisine (e.g. Indian, Chinese), working hours and the type of payments accepted (cash/credit card). There’s also a brief para describing the restaurant.
For Malaysia, there were more than 100 restaurants listed. These restaurants were categorised by their location, namely Kuala Lumpur (Selangor came under KL), Penang, and Kota Kinabalu.
I do hope to try out the restaurants listed in the book. Gandhi’s was listed, as was the vegetarian stall in Mid Valley.
Happy Eating!
Cheers,
The Vegetarian Writer
