Vegetarian Lifestyle

Zao Zi Shu or Jujube Tree - especially the one at Fengxian Lu - has been my favorite vegetarian restaurant for years. It is an exceptional place to bring friends who are unfamiliar with Chinese vegetarian food. The menu is quite diverse and includes many mock meat dishes with different flavors; the dumplings are excellent and they have additional tea and juice drinks. My favorite is a hot ginger tea that is perfectly sweet and spicy. They also have a lunch deal where you can pay upfront a certain amount and can get a meal card good for set lunches for several months. I highly recommend this restaurant.
