How amazingly vibrant can a salad get? Slowfood Piadina has become somewhat of a local for lunchtime jaunts. On this occasion $9.50 got me a spicy chicken bake, which consisted of three levels of food; roasted potato frittata, spicy cuminy curry chicken, and baked spiced rice. Mmm – hearty goodness. And the salad, so fresh it crunched with each mouthful. A shred of red/white cabbage, carrot and beetroot, and sliced radishes with curly greens. A gentle lemony dressing coated the vegetables, and the whole thing was served on a lovely recylable dish with wooden cutlery. Luckily it didn’t come with the dreaded dukkah that I have also had the displeasure of eating. Here’s hoping they change that little accompaniment.
What a fantastic photo Mel! All those lovely colours – it makes me want to eat it right now! I love what the boys at Slowfood are doing. Shows that when you are passionate about an ideal, people will gravitate to it.
Oh wow, oh yum, oh wow. I’m glad you introduced me to this place, but I haven’t been for a while… perhaps it’s time I wandered back! I almost never know what to choose for my lunch from there – it all always looks great, and the SMELLS! Bliss…
Hi there EG – uh huh, with you there. I’m of the theory that if you do something well, people will come. Word of mouth is an amazing thing. Just look at the likes of the Morrocan Soup Kitchen, or Piadina Slowfood. They don’t advertised, yet they are chockers every day.
Hey Anna – yeah, it’s that almond crumbed chicken ciabatta with homemade mayo that gets you every time, huh?
