<ion-side-menu-content>
  <ion-nav-bar class="bar-positive">
 
    <ion-nav-buttons side="left">
      <button class="button button-icon button-clear ion-navicon" menu-toggle="left">
      </button>
    </ion-nav-buttons>
 
    <ion-nav-buttons side="right">
      <button class="button button-icon button-clear ion-navicon" menu-toggle="right">
      </button>
 
    </ion-nav-buttons>
  </ion-nav-bar>
 
  <ion-nav-view name="centre-panel"></ion-nav-view>
 
</ion-side-menu-content>
