Pleasant but no WOW factor

the veg platter, er... maybe because it was a cold dish and the display was not very creative, so i am gonna say I have had better veg platters.

 the wrap was just "ma ma day", nth special, no wow factor (well, there is a competitive market for wraps), and altho I knew it was freshly made but it was lukewarm in temp when it was on the table. Yet, it is light in flavour and minimal on sauce, so good for weight watcher i suppose.

 Nowadays you can get Portobello burger at most places, but this stands out as it is much lighter as compared to the veg ones you cud get from other regular burger joint. Cheese was light, white cheese i think (well i think it was cheese, can't be too sure these days), and the sauce was minimal and on the side, love that (key to eating low fat for the well disciplined). Salsa is a much healthier option, low in sugar and carb than artificial tomato sauce, so that was much appreciated.

 Re the mushroom soup, if your notion of a mushroom soup is the creamy type, you may need to adopt to this one. This one has great texture of mushrooms, but overall feels like those gluey chinese soup since it is clearly not cream based. Light and healthy for sure, so it is still great, and portion is just right.

DECOR: 
Use of outdoor tiles, picnic wooden tables, almost alfresco feeling = cute 

SERVICE:
Great! Very friendly (and motherly), walked in and the hostress managed to accomodate us altho she did reminded us there was a reservation for our table in an hour's time, but she said it very very kindly, not like those Chinese restaurants hostress (you know, the "take it or leave it" attitude) 
Other Info. : Do get the juices Not a big venue, do make reservations
