About Wawin Vegan Chinese
Wawin Vegan Chinese is a Chinese takeaway at 40 Woodsley Rd in Leeds, and every dish on its menu is vegan. The kitchen makes plant-based versions of British Chinese classics, including vegan crispy duck pancakes and "chicken" satay, so people who avoid animal products can order familiar takeaway dishes. For anyone who wants variety, the Special Combo box packs a little of several dishes into one order. It comes with sauces on the side.

Customer Review Summary
Vegan chicken is what reviewers return to most, whether as chicken satay, salt and pepper chicken, or the chicken chow mein, and several call it the best they have had. Vegan crispy duck pancake rolls come close behind, with one reviewer calling them potentially better than the real thing. Others praise the combo box for its variety and portion size, along with spring rolls, garlic tofu and a Singapore chowmein packed with veggies. Non-vegan friends and partners are described as loving the food, which one reviewer says is very close to the real thing. The criticisms are specific. One order of vegan chicken with chips, meant to be a 3/10 spice level, was too hot to eat, and another reviewer found the white buns undercooked. A few note it costs more than other places and is a takeaway rather than a restaurant, despite the photos. Delivery is described as quick, and one household says the portions stretch to lunch the next day.
