Radha for Dinner

This being the end of the week, I'm reminded of something I've been wanting to post for a while:
Radha Yoga & Eatery (728 Main St.) is now open for dinner. I love Radha - their veggie burgers are amazing and the chai alone is worth going back for - but because until now it's only been open for lunch, dining there has been a special treat for days when I'm working from home or off sick. But now! Now it's open Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights for dinner, so I can go three times a week if it comes down to it. The menu is 95% vegan, with most of the ingredients being of the wholesome, organic type. They even have organic wine which I haven't tried yet, but maybe next time.

I already mentioned the veggie burger, which is absolutely delectable, but for dinner I had sticks of tempeh over quinoa and curried chick peas and it was so good that I couldn't talk for eating. Apparently Radha is operated by a collection of yoga teachers, but they also know a thing or two about food, because that dish was a perfect blending of all sorts of complimentary flavours. We also got the yam fries for an appetizer which you cannot go wrong with, and my partner ordered the pad thai and let me sample, and I found it somewhat lacking in flavour (although possibly only in comparison to my own dish), but nevertheless a good vegan version and quite filling for the price. I can't remember the price, exactly but it's an inexpensive evening out, even with alcoholic beverages.

Radha also does take-out, but I don't recommend it unless you're feeling especially anti-social, because the open, warm-wooded space (see their photo, above) is so cosy and calm that I'm sure it makes the food taste even better.
