Asian restaurant's fresh ''chicken'' and ''shrimp'' dishes keep local vegetarians content.

In Short
With its location in the center of Chinatown, Buddha's Delight provides area vegetarians with a conveniently located spot for a fresh, inexpensive meal. Vegetarian students pop in to take filling noodle soups to-go, while area couples linger over hot tea. Generic, Asian stir-fries and Vietnamese spring rolls prove popular, and meatless ''pork,'' ''steak'' and ''squid'' dot the menu.
