Fishbowl Gasworks
Sydney's Japanese-inspired salad chain has opened its first Brisbane store in Newstead.
Overview
Six years after launching its first-ever store in Sydney, salad chain Fishbowl has finally made the move north. Since mid-July, Brisbanites can now head to Newstead to tuck into the brand's Japanese-inspired bowls, with its debut Queensland outpost opening at Gasworks.
For newcomers to Fishbowl, the chain heroes fast but healthy vegetable-filled bowls, all revolving around its range of house favourites. So, you can enjoy its original salmon sashimi number, its coconut chicken bowl and a warm 12-hour braised brisket option — among other varieties — but personalise it by choosing from brown rice, sushi rice, glass noodles, mixed cabbage, mixed leaves and soba noodles as bases.
Down south, where Fishbowl operates 22 stores in Sydney and five in Melbourne, the company serves up more than 10,000 bowls of its most popular dish — The OG, that salmon sashimi bowl with kale, savoy, beets, shallots, edamame, red onion, roasted sesame dressing, seaweed salad, tobiko and crispy shallots — every week.
Since first making its name in Bondi in 2016, back when founders Nathan Dalah, Nic Pestalozzi and Casper Ettelson were all uni students, the brand has clearly expanded its footprint considerably. But it's not just about tucking into bowls; Fishbowl has also set up run clubs and created its own surf team, and also opened smoothie and salad bar Side Room, seafood eatery Fish Shop and takeaway joint FSH MKT.
