Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Rulai Vegetarian Food stands out for its consistent quality, with some patrons having frequented the stall for over 40 years.

The Zhai Er (vegetarian duck) noodle dish is a particular highlight, praised for its freshly deep-fried, fragrant, and crispy 'duck' paired with a special tossing sauce that complements various noodle types.

Beyond the noodles, the zi char options also receive strong recommendations, with dishes like sweet and sour pork, claypot tofu, and sambal fish noted for their savoury and delicious flavours.

We appreciate the stall's commitment to fair service, as evidenced by the owner's insistence on queuing.

While there might be a short queue during weekday lunch, it generally moves quickly.

This is a solid choice for those seeking reliable and flavourful vegetarian hawker fare.

We'd recommend it as a dependable everyday option, especially for the Zhai Er noodles.
