I quite enjoyed this panini, filled with tender slices of beef, tasty caramelised onion and tangy mustard. It was a good, lighter option for lunch and I was also able to get it toasted. On a previous visit, I had pan-fried, crispy skinned salmon with salad ($13.50), which was wonderfully cooked. I've only been here twice, but so far Lot 6 has not failed to impress! Beef Panini w.

Today's lunch was a Moroccan Lamb burger, consisting of prime lamb patty, grilled pumpkin, roasted red capsicum, hommous and aioli. When I first received the burger I was a bit confused because there was tomato in it. Only after asking one of the staff about it, I realised it came with salad. I did discover that it was missing the pumpkin though, so I had that added in. The burger wasn't really bad, but was generally underwhelming and a tad dry.

I managed to score a free burger through the Grill'd Meatwave promotion. Out of the selection of burgers offered through the deal I picked the Simon Says, which contains grilled chicken breast, avocado, crispy trim bacon, salad, relish & herbed mayo. It was a pretty good burger; tasty and not too dry, but I have to say I still like the Baa Baa burger the best.

I've heard so much about Lentil As Anything, and I don't live too far away so I'm not sure why I haven't come earlier. There isn't any rule on when to deposit the pay-as-you-feel payment; some people paid before they'd eaten. With the payment system there's a huge reliance on honesty and fairness and I would hope the majority of people would pay appropriately though, unfortunately, I'm sure there are a few who do not. Remember it's going towards a good cause! It's quite a big space with both seating...
