Bowery Lane, Sydney CBD (17 July 2015) - Revisit
Friday, July 17, 2015Bowery Lane is one of few safe havens where a pork-for-breakfast fiend can rejoice. It has been my top CBD pick (8/10).
I'm here motivated by a newfound disregard for heart-health plus an upgraded winter menu. These guys serve a seriously mean chai tea. Soy milk on the side ... you must.

| Cuban Omelette - pulled pork, pineapple salsa with roasted mushrooms and smashed avo - $18 + $8 |
I grapple with the supreme promise of succulent pulled pork versus the $18 price tag (for an omelette).
Hope is short lived - two bites and the heart flat-lines. My mouth fails to detect signs of life. The biggest disappointment is cubes of non-caramelised fat. No texture, no bite, no excitement.

I am rescued by the smashed avo and juicy mushrooms. Expensive lifeboats but safe places to hide in times of need. As I write this, I don't recall even tasting the garnish.
$26 for a mild omelette. Given this is a 'work' expense, I trust the ATO agrees the disappointment is tax deductible.
A BL downgrade is in order. 7/10. No longer a must visit.
Today's lesson?
Pulled pork is no match for bacon. Don't buy into the promise and stick to the Scout's breakfast, shown below.
