@loam_bistro is back with a brand new menu and a f @loam_bistro is back with a brand new menu and a few specials up their sleeves. Their spot prawn toast is a seasonal special and it features chopped spot prawn tartar layered over toasted white bread with a bisque crafted from roasted spot prawn shells. It is absolutely divine and a must order.

Other great dishes to try include:
🍄‍🟫 TRUFFLE OMELETTE - Local free-range eggs, sautéed mushrooms, shaved black truffle, Tobiko cheese sauce
🥭 MANGO VOGURT BOWL - Homemade granola, Greek yogurt, mango purée, seasonal fruit, chia seeds
🍞 PISTACHIO FRENCH TOAST - Milk bread, home-made pistachio sauce, pistachio crumb

Everything here is made with so much love and intention and you can really taste the difference. This little gem in Lower Lonsdale is a great little spot for brunch every single day!

Whether you’re at their Brentwood location, Richmond, Park Royal, Robson or even Toronto you can always expect a spectacular visit with delicious fresh hand rolls made to order. Crispy seaweed, warm rice and delicious fillings. My definition of girl dinner.
