Buddha’s Delight or Luo Han Zhai 罗汉斋 (罗汉全斋 if 18 ingredients are used) is a popular vegetarian dish in Chinese and Buddhist cuisine. For those who are not familiar, Buddha’s Delight is a more elaborate version of our local chap chye with a longer list of vegetarian ingredients. It is considered auspicious to eat this dish during Chinese New Year (traditionally eaten on the first day).

That looks delicious and oh my gosh those little teapots and cups are SO CUTE! ^_^
Tried this and substitue tang hoon with Korean glass noodles. It doesnt absorb water/gravy like tanghoon and I find the texture better.
glad to hear that Korean glass noodles work well. thanks for sharing :)
