Cafe Lua Ii

Update 27/1/2019: Cafe Lua has permanently closed.

December 10, 2011

Cafe Lua - it's close, never equally good packed and, importantly, serves upwardly peachy food.

I ordered the pumpkin too chia seed pancakes topped amongst a yoghurt, lentil too spinach salad, amongst sumac too crimson onion ($13.50)

The waitress told us that these pancakes are based on an Ottolenghi recipe, too then naturally it offers a peachy combination of flavours too textures. The pancakes were quite dense but non at all heavy, piece the salad was a wonderful fresh too good for you lot topping.

Cindy turned downwards all the fancy bill of fare items, instead going for a straightforward mushroom too cheese toastie ($6.50).

This was precisely what she was looking for - a elementary but effective start out to the day.

We're even too then making inroads into Cafe Lua's bill of fare (in item there's a vegan too gluten-free smoothie that Cindy's keen to try, piece I'm eyeing off closed to to a greater extent than savouries), but everything we've sampled too then far has been great. The staff were friendly too helpful again, too the java is consistently good. Cafe Lua is the local breakfast alternative we've been waiting for.
