Now Open: Salad Days Is Potts Points' New Go-To for Satisfying Salads for Lunch and Dinner
As this addition to Bayswater Road knows, you can't go wrong with a few more veggies in your diet.
No longer is salad just a crunchy side dish – it has the potential to be a fully fledged meal that you can munch on day in and day out. At least that's the idea behind fresh-faced Sydney upstart, Salad Days. Having recently arrived on the scene in Potts Point, this easygoing space offers mouthwatering options for lunch and dinner primed for eating on-the-go or at the eatery's casual sit-down spots.
Founded by brother-sister duo Louie and Prill Abdullah, their Lebanese heritage emanates through the business and its cuisine. Drawing on big family get-togethers where fresh food was at the heart of everything, they're uniting this sense of nourishment with the simple idea that salad belongs on every plate. Once you start diving into the menu, it's hard to argue that a salad every day might just do you some good.
Playing on this theme, each bowl sounds as good as the last. The Monday Farmers starts the week right with spiced lamb, quinoa, kale, cos lettuce, beetroot, sweet potato and more. Then, the Tuesday Taco Bowl sees grilled herb chicken paired with wild rice, black beans, pickled onion, corn chips and a lime-coriander dressing. By the time Friday comes around, we're talking grilled glazed salmon, peas, cucumber, potatoes, capers and green dressing.
"We wanted to create a space where healthy eating feels exciting and satisfying," says Salad Days co-founder Louis Abdullah. "Whether you're grabbing a quick lunch, enjoying a leisurely dinner, or looking for a nourishing snack, our menu is designed to make eating well a delicious, everyday choice."
Celebrating your love of vegetables is hassle-free, with the eatery finding a home on Bayswater Road in Potts Point. Pull up a pew in the chic store or make tracks for the waterfront – Rushcutters Bay Park is just a few streets away.
Whether you're a health-conscious diner or a veggie-loving foodie, adding Salads Days to your weekly rotation is bound to help you add more goodness to your diet.
Salad Days is open from Monday–Saturday, 11.30am–9pm at 2, Shop 4/14 Bayswater Road, Potts Point. Head to the website for more information.
