Vegane Vietnamese style food - Edit
The food was good and everything looked delicious. I would go here again, but would rather try different restaurants first. I went to a couple vegan vietnamese style restaurants and all of them are quite similar.

We can‘t wait to go again! - Edit
We loved our visit to Zen Chay! It is completely vegan and you really are spoilt for choice. We wish we could have tried everything!
Read moreIn the end we chose the Hanoi Soup and the Zen Chay Ramen for our mains, and both were delicious. We also shared the Papaya Salad, which was fantastic, and the Monk Bowl, which was good.
The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the interior of the restaurant is beautiful. We sat outside, though, with a nice view of the church.
The food here really made us feel like being in Asia again, and we cannot wait to try more when we are back in Cologne.
Update: We went again and it was just as good! This time we chose four different starters to share and we loved everything!

Really fresh - Edit
Menu was extensive and everything was fresh and tasty. Just info for tourists - they only take German bank card payments/paypal/cash. Just incase you wanted to pay with a debit card like we did.

Vegan Restaurant with good location - Edit
The restaurant has a really good spot and is in a great location if you need a break after a shopping day.
Read moreService is lovely and food is delicious. I chose two side orders and a dessert.
My choice was loving tofu and summetime rolls. My dessert was the hot banana.
The tofu was great. I think there could be more peanut butter dip. The summer rolls were superb, but again I would love more dip with them. The hot banana is something close to rice pudding. I liked it, but secretly I wish more restaurants would offer fried banana.
The drinks were lovely, i loved the lemon sea lemonade.
German EC and cash possible.
Pros: Fully vegan

Very nice food, good prices, lots of choice - Edit
Really nice place.
Read moreThe employees are friendly and don't only speak German but English as well.
We were helped very fast and also didn't have to wait too long for the food.
There was a lot of choice. We went for the share plates, which had a real nice amount and were definitely small.
The food itself is really good. Lots of veggies, tofu and tempe. Not just a lot of rice to fill but real good tasteful ingredients.
Would happily go there again when in Köln😄
Pros: Lots of choice, Lots of veggies, Fast & friendly staff

Lovely sharing dishes - Edit
We shared five of the sharing dishes between two of us for lunch, and it was the perfect amount.
Read moreThey were all pretty good but the tofu, soy cutlet and oyster mushroom wrapped in betel leaves was the clear winner.
The juices we had were very nice.
If we're back in Cologne, we'll definitely go back and try some main dishes.
Pros: So many appealing options , Lovely food , Nice drinks

Amazing food, bit high priced - Edit
The food was really delicious, and the sauces were incredibly good!!!
Read moreThe staff is nice and the atmosphere is also nice!
But in total it was a bit overpriced, especially because you normally order a lot of small dishes, what adds up if you want to be full afterwards

Delicious - Edit
I’ve tried two dishes both from their lunch meal menu and they tasted great. The food arrived really quickly. If you do not like mushrooms you should say so as we found mushrooms in a dish that hadn’t had them listed

Delicious Asian fusion restaurant in downtown Colonge - Edit
Great location in downtown Colonge offering a 100% vegan Asian fusion cuisine with fresh ingredients. The portion sizes are large, and there is a wide variety of options. Offers both inside and outside seating. We had the Baobao, sweet and potato, Buddha bowl, and the golden soup. Everything was delicious! Would definitely return and try additional menu options. They also offered an English menu.
Read morePros: Good flavor, Large variety of options, Large portion sizes
Cons: Only accepts cash

authentic cuisine with a modern touch ⭐️ - Edit
Went there spontaneously and they were so kind to squeeze us in. We ordered the vegan shrimps with peanutsauce, sushi and the crispy tofusticks (spoiler: they are OUT of this world!!!!). For drinks we had their smoothies, which was maybe not a good personal choice to go with the food, but they were sooo goood!
Read moreDefinitely give them a visit if you can! #Veganuary
