Went to Light Radiant unexpectedly because the Italian restaurant I wanted to try was closed at the moment.It was around 0315 when I arrived, and there was no other customers as the restaurant is normally closed after 3pm.The boss(I guess) asked me what I would want to have to see if they can still make it, and he was nice to talk to as I asked him to recommend the more popular dishes to me.

It was around 0315 when I arrived, and there was no other customers as the restaurant is normally closed after 3pm.
The boss(I guess) asked me what I would want to have to see if they can still make it, and he was nice to talk to as I asked him to recommend the more popular dishes to me. I was not that hungry but really it was time to eat as it had been so many hours after breakfast. When I saw they had a pea soup on the menu, I subjectively assumed that it would be quite thick after mashing so I ordered the Grilled Portobello Mushroom with Salad, which is one of their signature dishes.
I should say it was only because of my own expectation that it would be thick so that I was a bit disappointed when the soup came. First it's because of the portion; only half of the bowl and second, it was rather watery. But whatever, I wouldn't be that full and could have the quota for dessert thenSo I just forgot about the soup as it was nothing"neither special in taste"though organic
Nice mustard sauce!I really like mustard but normally it's often used to accompany meat, so I can hardly include any in my diet. Portobello mushroom is seemed as a meat substitute by many because of its texture and strong taste among all kinds of mushroom so it's really nice to have mustard sauce on it=] It was made right after order and serve right after cooked so you can enjoy it while it's still staying fresh and at its best taste!
And don't overlook the veggies! It's just easy to see that they were exceptionally fresh. Definitely better than most of the salad deli even at peak hours! As I was not sure if I'd like the dressing, I asked to have it on the side, which was served in the little cup. It tasted surprisingly refreshing because of the lemon and vinegar in it and of course it did its job well that it really matched with the salad=]
As the dish I had here was really light, though comforting and refreshing, I went to Grassroots Pantry afterwards to have a dessert to 'complete' my late lunch
Other Info. :
You can make a call if you want to have something to eat there after 3pm. There are sometimes walk-in customers during that period of time and the chef may probably be there.
As the food is made right after order, it's better to come when you have a longer time for lunch.
The environment is nice with quite a lot of green stuff and light in colour, but it's also an open area that you must hear the other people talking.
