I was going to wait until I had eaten all 5 salads this week before I blogged about it, but why wait? The best thing about blogs is that you readers get the latest pics and info with minimal turnaround time.
I actually had this salad for lunch today... and less than 12 hours later, here you have it:
Since Bourke Street Bakery started the email subscriptions, I have been obsessed! In winter, it was their hearty soups which were reinvented daily. Now, I'm stuck onto their salads -all of which are served with a generous slice of their delicious crusty sourdough. There's nothing better than receiving an email reminder of the daily specials every morning... it keeps my mind set til lunch time!
I found that the dressing in the roast beef salad (I had this last week, pic is above) to be too heavy, but the mix of lentils made it a scrumptious gourmet lunch that was extremely filling. Today's bresaola salad was a lot lighter and just as tasty, although I would have loved more than one zucchini flower...
Are you hooked yet? Here are some of the recent salads that were on offer:
- Pork with chat potato, chick pea, baby spinach, mint, basil and coriander, with a lemon, cornichon and spring onion dressing
- Duck with roast potatoes, roast beetroot, goats feta, parsley, celery, lentils, baby spinach, and a red wine dressing
- Roast chicken with white beans, croutons, braised fennel, parsley, and rocket and a lemon dressing
- Smoked salmon with potato, capers, roast red onion, basil, hazel nuts, tomato, witlof and a lemon and verjuice dressing
- Roast pork with chick pea, potatoes,baby spinach, mint, corriander, basil, and a light lemon mayo dressing
- Roast lamb with crispy pancetta, roast pumpkin, green beans, parsley, baby spinach, anchovies, goats feta and a balsamic dressing

These look awesome, how much are they ? Crap thing is, I can only make it to Bourke St on the weekends -_- Though I wonder if they have these at the sister store in Wynyard ( I 'think' it's their sister store anyway)
they're $9... definitely worth checking at their other stores.... om nom nom nom... i feel ur pain... i used to work far from bourke st bakery too... am loving that its just down the street now!
That looks so yumm. I wonder can you get the dressings on the side since I'm not a fan of most salad dressings...
They look REALLY good and I like the sound of the other salads too, especially the Duck with roast potatoes, roast beetroot, goats feta, parsley, celery, lentils, baby spinach, and a red wine dressing. I wish I was closer to get one for lunch but no BSB near me. Which is probably a good thing as I'd probably pick up some pastries along the way...to share for afternoon tea you see...ok maybe just for myself!
Lorraine haha... yeh, might be a good thing as my usual order is a salad & a tart! mmmm... love their almond & rhubard tarts or strawberry creme brulee tarts...
Lucy I reckon they'd accommodate that!
I love their sandwiches but I haven't tried their salads yet! Next time I see something interesting I'll check it out!
Do they have website? I want to subscribe too!
I don't think they have a website. Email them at bsbroadway@optusnet.com.au to subscribe
i think they do the smoked ocean trout salad every Thursday... it seems to have been the pattern for 2 - 3 weeks now... that's the best salad they've ever done.... i think so anyway :-)
