Be full and fooled at this creative vegetarian restaurant.

Sherry Xia is a devoted Buddhist. For the past 17 years she’s been incorporating the virtues of Buddhism into her life. So when dining out options can be fairly limited for the carnivore it’s time to take matters into your own hands. Sherry doesn’t know how to cook, but that hasn’t stopped her from opening up one of the most creative and colourful vegetarian restaurants in Beijing.

When one finds something as rare and wonderful as a quiet pocket of Beijing, one must think carefully about what to do with it. The decision to insert a low-key, quality Buddhist vegetarian restaurant was the perfect choice. Tucked away in a residential area north of DongZhiMen, and further hidden by a wide front lawn full of overgrown weeping willows, this is the proverbial jewel in the lotus.
