"Even if you regularly identify as an omnivore, you won’t miss meat during your night at Lion Dance Cafe. The downtown vegan Singaporean spot cranks the flavor dials up to the max for every plant-based dish. Lightly fried mushroom goreng is flawless over a fresno calamansi sambal, and the laksa has rich, earthy depth that really shines through. Even their bread—crusty, golden-brown shaobing covered in glossy sesame seeds—is something you’ll be dream journaling about for weeks. This spot is also just a lot of fun, like a rainbow ball pit come to life. Walls are covered in colorful paper lanterns, lion dances are projected by the door, and a massive lion’s head surveys the dining room from above." - Julia Chen
