Luca


Kelly and Josh were home for the weekend for the Liverpool match. Kelly's family the McCann's are big Liverpool fans so she wanted to be home to soak up the atmosphere and to see the parade that happened today even though they didn't bring home the Champions League trophy they already announced that they would parade the FA and Carabao Cup.

We went to Luca on Allerton Road with Danielle and Matt. Luca used to be 109 Allerton which I'd been to a few times for lunch and enjoyed it and was always busy so not sure why it shut and has now reopened as an Italian small plates and cocktail place. The lunch and evening meals looks good so will be back to try it.


Avocado Artisan Sourdough - £10
Poached Eggs, smashed avocado, artisan sourdough, vincotto, breakfast radish, fried onions

I got the avocado toast which was nice until I realised there was coriander in it which wasn't mentioned on the menu. The server did ask beforehand if we had any allergies or intolerances but didn't expect them to put coriander with my avocado as I've never had it before. So they definitely needed to put it on the menu that there was going to be micro herbs and coriander. Other than that the sourdough wasn't tough and hard to cut like usual which was good. Without the coriander would have been a good avocado toast albeit a fancy one.


Matt
Vegan Breakfast - £11.50
Wild mushrooms, avocado, roasted tomato, vegan sausage, crispy potato, baked beans, toasted artisan sourdough

The beans came in its own little pot which Matt did hold and model for me but I missed it


Josh
Nduja Scrambled Eggs Artisan Sourdough - £11
Toasted artisan sourdough, chilli agrodolce, mascarpone


Danielle
Wild Mushrooms on Artisan Sourdough - £11
Poached eggs, pan roasted wild mushrooms, pancetta, pickled shallots


Kelly
Benedict Alla Fiorentina - £11.50
Prosciutto di Parma, poached eggs, herb mornay, toasted artisan sourdough

I liked that we all got different things and basically everything off the breakfast menu. Just needed 2 more people then that would have been the whole breakfast menu covered! It was dead in there when we went at 11:15am but guessing people were still hungover from last night. It's got some good reviews for dinner so presuming it gets busy of a night or later on when they have the full food small plates menu.
