3.16 'Allpress coffee & simple delights'
3.16 'Allpress coffee & simple delights'
Hello Luigi’s.
You're just down the road from Bondi Picnic
and up from Deli Bottega.
You've got a simple set up - ten or so tables out the front and a small kitchen
and barista out the back. Your coffee is Allpress. Your head waiter,
charismatic. And your menu, wallet friendly. It seemed I was on to a winner
this morning. That was until you served me a cappuccino without chocolate
sprinkles (aka a latte). Thankfully, said charismatic waiter swooped over moments
later with the cocoa tin. Lucky save. Your eggs were also hit and miss – they
were uneasy on the eyes, they looked like they'd been cooked in a box? It was
all very confusing, but strangely tasty and satisfying. My biggest delight of
the morning however, came when I realized Aquabumps was sitting at the table
next to me! As a hero of mine, I was suitably impressed that Aquabumps had
brought his family to dine with you, Luigi. Maybe he came for your special eggs
too.
Coffee: 4 For the tasty Allpress. And for salvaging my cappuccino.
Eggs: 3 Boxey. But tasty. And lots of them.
Toast: 2 I did not love your toast.
Knife: 2 Pretty average.
Ambience: 4 Chilled out, good for people watching, not pretentious.
