Well this eatery turns the Hawaiian salad originally served as an appetiser into one worthy of a healthy main meal. Bowls start with rice or a green salad as a base, before it gets a topping of fresh salmon or tuna, fresh vegetables and pickles.
The vegan bowl with spicy tofu is a great one if you're a little squeamish about raw fish, and carb-avoiders can swap their rice base with a kale salad. But whether you're going for their classic tuna or the snapper one, order a side of taro chips with chilli salt of the volcano chips sprinkled with furikake. Umami heaven.

A converted former Post Office as the name suggests, The Posty is a charming boutique venue specialising in cold beer, a cracking wine list, wood fire pizzas and service with a smile. Located in the heart of Richmond, this architectural gem is positioned right on the street, set amongst a laid back structure providing some much needed respite from the hustle and bustle of Swan Street. Open seven days a week for dinner and for lunch from Wednesday to Sunday, The Posty is the perfect choice for a catch up in the sun soaked beer garden, a pre-footy pizza by the bay window or a carefully crafted cocktail in the public bar.
