It’s ironic that a takeover from a spiritual idol can suck the soul right out of a restaurant, but that’s essentially what happened with Alice & Friends Vegetarian Cafe. Recently, Supreme Master Ching Hai brought the restaurant into her Loving Hut fold, an international chain of vegan franchises that contribute funds back to the Master herself. The decor is so stark it recalls a dentist’s office, but the food—meatless bibimbap, mandoo—is exactly the same.
