Frommer's Review
Tied to the organic food shop located just around the corner on Woodlands Road, Grassroots is the city's leading vegetarian restaurant. The feel is casual and relaxed, with some sofas at the front of the dining space and booths separated by gauzy curtains. A good selection of nonalcoholic fruit drinks as well as organic wine and beer from Britain complement a menu that has international influences. Cakes of risotto-style rice with goat's cheese and pine nuts, tempura-battered and fried vegetables, and a Middle Eastern tagine with couscous offer examples of what you'll find here.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
