Loving Hut FOOD & DRINK
Loving Hut
Loving Hut

Loving Hut is an international chain of vegan restaurants ruled by Supreme Master Ching Hai, whose teachings insist heaven will be blocked to carnivores, and who might be insane. "Meat is mostly virus," says Supreme Master TV, played on a perpetual loop in Loving Hut. "By eating meat, your diet becomes mostly virus." Servers smile as if their lives depended on it. It's fascinating, in a cult-themed minimalist dinner-theater way, and some of the food is very good—try the corn-doggy "golden stick," the mushu delight, and the jasmine tea.

I'm trying it now - nothing like a looping tv show talking about factory farm waste to whet the appetite.

Vegan Garden, which occupied the site before Loving Hut, was way, way better.

So there.

1: Is that happening again?? That happened during my second visit, and I had to tell them to knock it off.

Hey, what a surprise. This is why I hate vegans; a solid 2/3rds of them are obnoxious cunts.

I like my vegan food with a less creepy atmosphere, so I'll stick to In The Bowl for now.

It's amazing. The food is awesome, especially BBQ sticks that taste like real beef (maybe they are). Service is wonderful. The religious infomercials about the Supreme Leader are very entertaining and surreal (and simultaneously subtitled in ten languages). I could eat there every day. The Supreme Leader is really cool - much better than that boring Dalai Lama or the retarded Pope. She's got orange hair, she sings, writes lesbian poetry, designs jewelry and raises swans - what else do you need.

Andy - you look like a big fat turd in that picture.

They think the food they serve us is " blessed" and I have seen them reciting strange mantras when preparing food so creepyyyy... Do you know they actually believe Ching Hai's crap that the souls of humans will be saved by eating vegan food...!!!! Eeee... Wired ass behavior !!! They are also taught not to look into the eyes of anyone when talking as it will give them negative energy they actually have to say a prayer while serving FOOD !! How's that for obnoxious?!
