Back from our weekend away, Cindy as well as I decided to endeavour to operate our long weekend to sample a novel luncheon house - nosotros had The Social Studio as well as their iv kinds of vegetarian burgers inwards mind. Unfortunately, they'd had the same thought every bit us as well as had used Melbourne Cup hateful solar daytime to industry a long weekend for themselves.
We kept wandering along Smith, eventually settling on 1 of the few places that would serve us luncheon at 2:50 - Wabi Sabi Salon. I've professed my enthusiasm for their vegie bento box before as well as I didn't fifty-fifty explore the residue of the menu. Prices cause got gone upwardly significantly inwards the by twelvemonth as well as a chip - the vegetarian bento box has gone from $11 to $15. Still, it's a pretty decent combo: rice, pickles, a vegie dish, a salad as well as a random hot main.
Oh, as well as a miso soup to start things off.
A overnice warming start to the meal, amongst a few pieces of tofu as well as seaweed inwards a rich broth.
The primary of selection on Mon was Irish Gaelic patato croquettes: iv piffling fried Irish Gaelic patato triangles amongst golden crispy shells, a few smears of a sweetish sauce as well as a sprinkle of sesame seeds on top. The broccoli (although sparse) came amongst a tasty miso sauce, spell the seasoning on the rice turned a plainly accompaniment into its ain piffling highlight. This was a decent lunch, but in all probability non quite worth the price.
Cindy looked beyond the box option, ordering the tofu as well as vegetable ankake donburi ($15).

There were lots of fresh vegetables, to a greater extent than or less delicious cubes of tofu as well as rice. Everything was perfectly cooked, but the sauce lacked a chip of pizzazz - it was only a chip plain. Still, a fair chip healthier than iv chunks of crispy fried potato.We were happy to abide by a house opened upwardly as well as willing to serve us luncheon on an afternoon when almost of Melbourne was taking a long weekend. We walked out fairly contented amongst our lunch, but at $15 a meal, nosotros were in all probability paying a piffling to a greater extent than than what the nutrient nosotros got was worth. The service was friendly as well as efficient, as well as the setting is every bit charming every bit ever, but the nutrient wasn't quite every bit practiced every bit I remembered it. I'll compass them to a greater extent than or less other shot, but amongst to a greater extent than moderate expectations inwards future.
