Water Drop Teahouse

Water Drop Teahouse is a peaceful cafe found secreted away in a corner of the Fo Guang Shan Chung Tian Buddhist Temple at Priestdale. 

Surrounded by nature, this blissful cafe offers a fully-vegetarian menu of light eats and daily specials, which diners can enjoy inside the serene dining room or al fresco in the courtyard overlooking Chung Tian's seven-tiered pagoda.

The all-day menu includes popular Asia fare such as spring rolls, steamed dim sum, fried dumplings and edamame, served along with daily specials like okonomiyaki, noodle soups and hot pots filled with fresh veggies.  

In addition, there's a small selection of sweets on offer, best accompanied by a well-brewed cup of Merlo coffee. Otherwise, there are teas, iced drinks and sparkling drinks.  

Afterwards, take the time to stroll around the tranquil temple and tropical gardens dotted with buddha statues and soak up the serenity.
