Luzuria
By Sophie Cameron
Founded by two Argentinians with a love for cooking, Luzuria is about simple food made with passion. Small and relaxed with a sunny terrace overlooking Avinguda Roma, this cafe-restaurant offers a menu of Argentinian and European favorites.
Argentine cuisine is known for its meat, and while Luzuria won’t disappoint on that count, owners Roxana and Marcela also serve a range of vegetarian dishes. Meat eaters are recommended a hamburger or focaccia with Iberian ham, while veggies shouldn’t miss out on the lasagna or empanadas. Gluten-free bread and lactose-free recipes also feature on the menu, as well as vermouth served with macerated olives.
The daily menu offers a starter and main for €8.50 with dessert for an extra euro. Try their apple crumble à la mode or homemade fresh fruit gelato, the ideal summer treat.
