Its been several days and I can see that they been sending messages to other people who have messaged them later than I have. So its not like they're enabling a media black out. My only reaction is, of course, to say:

I watched it rise in the public's eyes until every time I went past, the place was absolutely packed. Lady Marmalade, how I've missed you and your awesome, awesome sandwiches. Did you know the owner of Lady Marmalade/Shady Palms are past contestants from My Kitchen Rules? As well as having won best sandwich in Australia for two years running?
They never used to have a specials board. The mismatched furniture and weird placeholders are still there though.
Not sure if want |
The bra outlet shut down ): |
Its on a weird intersection of two main roads |
Pretty |
So many bottles |
They also have a delectable showcase of baked goodies and premade sandwiches of all sorts. I normally pick out a sandwich and a main meal cause their portions are a little on the small side. The day that we went here however, we had been eating a heck of a lot during our night shifts. If you have no idea what I'm talking out, check out my Instagram account to see how much we pigged out.
Their sandwiches are amazing |
Unsure about their sweets though |
They have a few sauce caches around, BBQ, tomato and HP |
There's a cute little owl in the corner! |
Their menu! |
Perfect fern |
On the other hand, I decided to pick up this Ti Tonics white tea and nectarine drink. I was enticed by the fact that it was nectarine. It wasn't until after I had opened it that I noticed it was white nectarine and white tea as the flavour base, possible two of the most delicate flavours you could ever combine. It didn't have much taste to be honest, faint white tea scent and that honey like flavour of white nectarines.
Pretty design at least? |
I got the savoury mince with roasted tomato, topped with crumbled feta and gremoulata on top of a toasted sourdough sub. It was a very beautiful looking construction when I received it. The mince was quite rich with large nubbly chunks of beef, it was deliciously savoury if a touch dry. The crumbled feta added a nice and creamy saltiness to the mince and the gremoulata add a touch of freshness to the rich flavours. I don't care much for tomatoes as you know but savoury mince and tomatoes is a match made in heaven. The sourdough was lovely but hard enough to knock someone out with. I nearly stabbed A., in the eye, while trying to cut through the thing. I love crunchy/burnt toast, but that was just ridiculous.
So tasty |
The feta looks like massive chunks of garlic |
My cute dragon placeholder! |
So beautiful |
Sandwich number 1 |
Sandwich number 2 |
The left is the pulled pork sandwich, this was my pick out of the two. My Boyfriend disagrees and said he disliked it for all the reasons I liked it. The pulled pork was meltingly tender, with small caramelised crunchy bits in there as well. It was drenched in a sweet and quite spicy barbeque sauce that I greatly enjoyed. I didn't seem to notice the sweet chilli jam, kewpie or rocket as much due to the barbeque sauce used.
Chicken on the right, pulled pork on the left |
Atmosphere: 6, its cute and all, but its also on the corner of a main road and side alley. The sheer noise is perpetually irritating to me whenever I go.
Service: 8.5, perpetually cheerful, super friendly and enthusiastic. I noticed it especially the second time I went because I wasn't busy chatting to anyone cause I went alone. When I ordered, I broke into a coughing fit when I was ordering several times, my waitress was very patient and tried to guess what I wanted several times. When I asked her to wrap up two sandwiches and split the sandwiches in half and wrap one of each half into a pack for my Boyfriend and one for immediate consumption, she was perfectly happy to do so. As I was waiting for my food to arrive, every five minutes one of the servers came out to do a quick scan to see if anyone had left or was waiting around for something, they cleaned empty tables multiple times as well. When I left I gave my waitress a $10 tip out of a $30 bill, yeah my meal was that good.
Food: 9, I love, love, love Lady Marmalade's food, the portions are a touch small. In the past when I had a much bigger appetite, I used to easy polish off a sandwich as well. Nowadays I was ridiculously full after having that sandwich
