The last time I went to 'New Start' Vegetarian Buffet was about a year ago, so I figured it was time to revisit the restaurant and the kind old man who runs it. When my friend and I walked in, we were surprised at how empty the place was. Maybe it was because it was a weekday, but there was literally only one other customer in the entire place. Has their business gone down over the course of the year? I really hope they're doing okay cuz it would be a shame to lose a veg restaurant in Seoul.
I hate to say this, but the food was wasn't as good as I remembered it to be. I couldn't help but wish that some of the dishes were warmer... It seemed that a lot of the food had just been sitting out for a while, getting cold and crusty. Aside from that, there was still plenty to eat and we walked out with our bellies filled to the brim. Here are our plates:
My favorite dish was the syrupy sweet potatoes with sunflower seeds sprinkled on top. They were soooo yummy! I also liked their stuffed cabbage rolls, whole wheat bread, and mini quesadillas.
Price: 12,000 per person.
