Review

Vistro opened its doors in 2019, and since then, little has changed with the setting, menu, or quality of the food. It was good back then, and it’s even better now. Billed as a fusion vegan bistro, Vistro serves plant-based versions of familiar favourites from around the globe. A comprehensive non-alcoholic drinks offering ranges from kombucha of the day to cold-pressed juices, lattes, smoothies, and coconut milk-based shakes. Chilli bao bao are soft-bunned, sweetly glazed meat substitute double bites with a little crunch. Vegan crab croquettes feature a super-creamy filling in a fried breadcrumb case, paired with spicy mayonnaise, while Vistro dumplings sit in a mild chilli sauce, topped with crispy soy protein sprinkles. The habibi wrap, a meal in itself, is perfectly encased in a part-toasted outer shell, with a flavour-packed filling of shredded cucumber, red pepper, purple cabbage, soy protein, and a house sauce that blends it all into one tasty experience. For noodle lovers, the damn good dan dan remains the favourite, with a combination of substitute meatballs and mushrooms, red pepper, and dark green bak choy adding vibrant colour to the mildly spicy soup. In total, Vistro offers a wide selection of noodles, bowls, wraps, tacos, salads, yum cha items, and cakes, including the famous chocolatey raw snykers bar, filled with all sorts of vegan goodness inside.
