It tastes exactly like the non-veg ones but minus the fat and cholesterol. it can be easily bought from vegetarian grocery shops in SG. You can even order it online, e.g. http://www.friendlyvegetarian.com.sg/product?cat=2 <br /> The Chinese are able to cook up a vegetarian equivalent to almost any meat item - vegetarian goose, chicken, duck, beef, abalone, fish, etc - in any form, steamed, roasted, cutlet, whatever. Western visitors often marvel at Chinese creativity and ingenuity in vegetarian cuisine. Try them in your next visit to SG.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04854408960466254407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939263.post-28559609350648673162015-11-23T12:01:17.797+08:002015-11-23T12:01:17.797+08:00I've heard of mushroom bak kwa mentioned.

Her shop is called "Goodies Galore" but you have to pre-order before she can supply you. A few years ago they were about $38 a kg. I don't know what it is now.ausiroohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13642455948372849081noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13939263.post-46391493938526196472015-11-21T08:58:34.763+08:002015-11-21T08:58:34.763+08:00I used to make my own bakkwa in Sg because I felt ...I used to make my own bakkwa in Sg because I felt $50 a kg is atrocious. I did bake them to completion as it is hard to barbecue in Sg. But my barbie here runs on gas so it'll never have the same flavour as the charcoal barbie you're using.Missy Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16879471813097890140noreply@blogger.com
