Vegetarian Dinner on special day to enjoy life, friends, cleanse, and purify!

Come join us to experience amazing vegetarian delightful dishes of veggies, tofu, and mock meats that will leave you in awe how good this vegetarian restaurant is under a buddhist temple in Brooklyn! Lucky Vegetarian is my favorite Chinese vegetarian spot in Brooklyn so come and experience the dishes with us! This date will not only have yummy food and friendly members but is a special meaningful date for our dinner to purify the body and mind, reduce desires, and cultivate moral virtues.

The practice of "eating vegetarian on the 1st and 15th of the lunar month" is a traditional custom in Chinese culture, particularly observed by followers of Buddhism or Taoism. According to this belief, on the first and fifteenth days of each lunar month, individuals avoid eating meat and choose to eat vegetarian food instead. This practice is meant to purify the body and mind, reduce desires, and cultivate moral virtues.
For Buddhists, the idea is rooted in compassion for all living beings, as eating vegetarian food is seen as a way of avoiding harm to animals. For Taoists, it is about maintaining balance and harmony within the body and soul. Additionally, many people believe that by following this practice, they can accumulate good karma, receive blessings, and pray for peace and protection for themselves and their loved ones.
