Yummy Green is a new outfit in Downtown East that dishes out your familiar Japanese set meals - vegetarian style. So do not expect to find any meat in the Katsu-don, tempura or the chicken katsu.

We ordered the Veggie Tempura Udon ($6.80) and the Veggie Chicken Curry Katsu Set ($8.80) which comes with a bowl of Miso Soup. Perhaps we were too accustomed to the Miso Soup at other Japanese restaurants. This Miso soup lacks the "kick". Perhaps it is a healthier version, taking into consideration that healthy food is not the same as tasty food.

The tempura was all pure vegetable, with broccoli, sweet potato, ladies finger, other assortment of vegetables and what looked like a huge "prawn". The soup was not too salty, but seemed abit bland or maybe its just me not used to healthy food.

The chicken curry gravy tasted similar to what we were accustomed to and we were quite happy with that. The only problem was that the pieces of "chicken" was way too few. Considering that the dish costs $8.80, we thought a few more pieces of chicken would have made it more complete.

Ambience wise was basically average, perhaps a place for a quick eat and go kind of setting. Could do with a different choice of music as it totally did not seem to be appropriate for the kinda food being served. Made us feel like we were in an amusement park. :)

Overall a place to consider as they have quite a large variety of menu choices (sometimes you can make a wrong menu item choice just like how some make a wrong song choice) and especially if we have friends who are pure vegetarians and who would like to try something different.

They have a 10% discount promotion till end April 2009.
