Vegan Chinese food that doesn't feel like a compromise is the premise here, and ALT.a makes a reasonable case for it. The kitchen reimagines classics like jjamppong and tangsuyuk using only plant-based ingredients, leaning on crisp coatings and chewy textures where the meat usually does the convincing. The cooking runs notably light, which keeps the whole meal from feeling like a statement. It holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand.
