Freemode has a laid back Greek themed decor. I tried their Gratin Pasta with Pumpkin, Hong Kong Fried Rice with XO Sauce, Double-layered Pumpkin Pie Veg Tuna Submarine, Salad, Black Sesame Tofu Pudding Dessert, Roselle and Plum Jelly Dessert, and the Yakult with Mango Juice. The Pumpkin Gratin had fresh ingredients and pretty good cheese, but hardly had any pumpkin in it and was a small amount, given the price. The HK Fried Rice had a light XO sauce taste and a perfect amount of spiciness that didn't overcome the rest of the dishes' flavors. The Pumpkin Pie Veg Tuna Submarine is actually a modern pita, not a submarine, which goes with the whole Greek theme; they need to correct their English menu which has a horrible translation on a lot of items. The pumpkin and Veg Tuna had a nice moist taste which was accompanied by fresh veggies, and the pita wrap was of good quality. I don't know why they call it double-layered because it only had one layer. Actually, there are no layers in a pita pocket. Must be another lost in translation thing. Both salads were just OK because the sauce was too sweet.
My Yakult Mango Juice had just the right level of sweetness and complimented the food quite nicely. Time for dessert. I was very surprised when it was laid down on our table, because it looked like a science experiment in a petri-dish. I imagined vegetarian scientists in a special section in the kitchen with their test tubes coming up with a healthy concoction made from pure essences, haha. It's certainly a different concept than your normal dessert, but if you know you're not getting your typical unhealthy dessert than you might be satisfied. The Roselle with Plum Jelly was just OK, but the Black Sesame Tofu Pudding was a nice little ending to a healthy overall enjoyable meal. However, the proportion was really small.
