Plan your next bite at Alice & Friends' Vegan Kitchen
Alice & Friends is a vegan restaurant that celebrates the flavors and beauty of plant-based cuisine from all over the world. Founded by Alice Lee in 2001, they strive to create a wonderland of 100% vegan dishes and desserts for everyone to enjoy. The goal is to make a real difference about how people think about veganism, as well as make it easy for people who want to incorporate vegan foods. They offer allergy-friendly options, catering, and limited-time specials.
They want to attract non-vegans as well. Two dishes they recommend to first-timers or the vegan curious are Mushrooms Wonderland, a trio of mushrooms served with kale and broccoli over quinoa, and Kung Pao Ding, sauteed red and green pepper, ginger, scallion, broccoli and garlic with peanuts and a choice of meat alternative (tofu, oyster mushrooms or soy protein) with hot chili and house-made Kung Pao sauce, served over brown rice.
Another dish which is a favorite of non-vegans is the ramen. There are two options on the menu: Tonkotsu ramen is made with plant-based broth, served with vegan bacon, mushrooms, bok choy, corn and bean sprouts. Roasted sesame miso ramen is made with house-made dashi, served with lightly seasoned mung bean sprouts, crispy tofu “skin” and corn.

Alice & Friends’ was founded by Alice Lee in 2001. A few years later, Alice passed the restaurant to her family and friends to pursue her vegan dream in Europe. The restaurant was then renamed Loving Hut. In 2015 Mun Wong bought the business and brought back the name she loved: Alice & Friends Vegan Kitchen. With the support of her friends and YOU, they make our vegan dream come true everyday.
