About Blissful Station

Box Hill Central’s plant-based counter turns out Chinese comfort food without a trace of meat. Market regulars skip the hot bar and order straight from the fryer—specifically for the youtiao mochi, a hot, salted cruller wrapped in chewy rice cake and black sesame. Add a crisp zucchini pastie to round it out, or pack a takeaway box with fried radish cake and noodles. Shoppers in the know finish by raiding the freezer cabinet for uncooked dumplings to stash at home.

  • Youtiao Mochi: A crisp, freshly fried Chinese doughnut layered with soft, chewy mochi and crushed black sesame.
  • Zucchini Pasties: Deep-fried pastry pockets packed hot with crunchy zucchini and mixed vegetables.
  • Take-Home Dumplings: Packs of house-made frozen vegetarian dumplings ready to cook at home, notably the zucchini-and-mushroom variety.
  • Fast Plant-Based Lunchboxes: Generous, budget-friendly takeaway combinations loaded with noodles, rice, and traditional vegetarian mains.

  • Plump Pan-Fried Dumplings

    Freshly pan-fried vegetable dumplings are packed with flavorful mushrooms, offering thick and plump skins with rich plant-based filling.

    The skin is thick, plump and flavourful. By far one of the best dumplings I've had.

  • Fresh Youtiao Mochi

    Freshly fried Chinese youtiao wrapped in warm, stretchy mochi and black sesame balances crisp pastry with a chewy, sweet-and-salty finish.

    The salt on the youtiao complemented well with the subtle sweetness of the black sesame

  • Indulgent Sweet-and-Salty Dessert

    A signature dessert specialty combining hot fried doughnut, silky mochi, crushed peanuts, and black sesame in a generous takeaway portion.

    The star of the show would have to be the Chinese donut with mochi topped with sweet black sesame and peanuts.

Before you head over

Practical ordering, seating, and takeaway pointers for navigating Box Hill Central's plant-based counter—book ahead or plan your visit early to get the best pick.

  • Order Made-to-Order Mochi Doughnuts Early

    The youtiao mochi is fried fresh to order, requiring a brief wait, and popular batches can sell out by late afternoon. Plan to arrive earlier in the day for the crispiest texture.

  • Rely on Food Court Seating Around the Corner

    Blissful Station is a counter-service takeaway stall with no dedicated dining room. Take your order to go, or head to the common food court tables located just around the corner in Box Hill Central.

  • Bring Your Own Bag or Containers

    Carry your own food containers or a dedicated tote to bypass minor bag surcharges and safely transport freshly fried pasties without leaking oil onto shopping bags.
