Being able to adhere to diet-specific preferences or needs is an important part of staying physically and mentally well when you are living in a new environment. While it may take some time for you to adjust to your needs here, this should not be a problem so long as you give it a little effort and are open to some compromise. The following sections contain information for some dietary-specific needs.
You will find that Chinese vegetarians commonly incorporate large varieties of rice, vegetables and imitation meat or seafood into their diet. Imitation meats are made from soy protein and other vegetable-based substances. They replicate the texture, taste and appearance of their real counterparts. This culinary tradition traces back to ancient Buddhist roots.
Apart from those listed below, you will find many other establishments serving Chinese and Western vegetarian fare as you travel around Hong Kong. On campus, vegetarian selections are also available at the Coffee Shop (near lifts 25 and 26). Chinese vegetarian cuisine is available at most other canteens as well.
There are a number of Halal-certified restaurants in Hong Kong that caters for the Muslim community.
