Upon realizing that the cost of living was escalating at a rate much quicker than my salary, I promptly decided to cut a few luxuries. I parted ways with my perfect salon manicure, embraced my naturally thick Italian eyebrows, gave up my daily coffee from the charming café across the office, and, naturally, stopped buying lunch every day. However, this week, due to a tempting little discount from Fishbowl, I’m making an exception to one of my self-imposed rules.

This week, Fishbowl is offering discounted O.G bowls for just $5 each at their locations in New South Wales, Victoria, and Queensland. This means a delightful saving of $10.90 if you opt for a regular-size bowl. If you’re feeling a bit hungrier, you can upgrade to a large for only an additional $3. Count me in!

The only condition is that to take advantage of this generous discount, you need to order your bowl via DoorDash. Given the dreary weather in Sydney at the moment, delivery feels like an added perk.

As explained by Fishbowl co-founder Nic Pestalozzi, this delicious discount is being offered to celebrate the opening of a new store on Sydney’s Phillip Street.

“We wanted to express our gratitude to customers for their support and celebrate this milestone with the bowl that started it all, The O.G,” he remarked.

Fortunately, in my modest opinion, the O.G is among the finest bowls on their menu as it includes sashimi salmon (or you can switch it for chicken or tofu if you prefer), edamame, beetroot strips, onion, tobiko, crispy shallots, sesame dressing, and — the pièce de résistance — seaweed salad!!!!

As you might notice if you stroll through any CBD featuring a Fishbowl, the poké bowl chain is a beloved choice for corporate folks and anyone with discerning taste buds. Often, the line is incredibly long, so the savvy ones order their bowl online and simply pick it up. Just a tip for you.

The $5 O.G bowls are available until the 25th of February, but Fishbowl has more initiatives up its sleeve.

This Japanese-inspired chain is also offering $5 off your meal on Mondays and Tuesdays if you complete a 5km run and log it on the Strava running app. You can then connect it to the Fishbowl app to redeem the discount.

“We’re essentially rewarding customers for being active and feeling better about themselves,” he mentioned.

Once again, count me in!

This exciting offer is available until the 24th of March. See you all at the run club!!!!
