    Chi Lin Nunnery

    We are planning to visit Chi Lin Nunnery this weekend. Does anyone know if they offer a vegetarian lunch like they do at Po Lin Monastery? Can someone suggest any good places for lunch around diamond hill mtr station?

    There is a vegetarian restaurant in Nan Lian Garden (the park opposite to Chi Lin Nunnery).

    I think it should be the one Claire mentioned.

    No, but you said you were going at the weekend so... It opens a bit later Mon-Fri at 11.30am.
