Dinner at @lucali_bk ๐Ÿ•๐Ÿ”ฅ
-
Nothing quite like the mood in this dining room. An almost homely feel in here with its dim lighting, candles and rustic interiors. So relaxing watching the chefs prepare the pizza with the glowing brick oven in the back. The prep table is packed full of fresh, seasonal ingredients and toppings. Lots of mushrooms, onion, basil, lightly marinated artichoke, sweet and hot peppers and plenty of fresh mozz. Itโ€™s a whole vibe. The grandma-style meatballs to start were great - a rare special that I was lucky to try. Made with veal, pork and plenty of parm, enveloped in Lucaliโ€™s famous tomato marinara. I think itโ€™s the same sauce they use on the pizza - super rich and well balanced with a kiss of basil. That stuff is drinkable. They do regular pizza and calzone here. I was so full from a day of eating around town I only got the pizza but heard great things about that calzone. The pies here are big with an ultra thin, browned, almost smokey base. Lotssss of cheese on this thing but so tasty. The fresh mozz and rich tomato sauce creates a lovely flavour and texture on top. Lucaliโ€™s is always worth a visit #notoriousfoodie ๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿฝโ€โ™‚๏ธ
